Silver

British Shorthair · Male · Adult · 6 years

Hello, I am Silver, I came to the animal shelter as a found animal and apparently no one misses me. Now I am searching for a new home. At first, I was very shy and reserved, but now I am very open and love to snuggle. I get along well with other cats, so another cat in my new home wouldn’t be a problem. I wouldn’t mind older children either, as they probably snuggle a lot with me. However, I do need a place to retreat to if things get too much for me. It would be great if I could have some roam time after my settling in period. Then I can explore the outdoors again and catch some mice. So, if you are interested, please get in touch with my foster parents at this breed animal shelter. This cat needs outdoor access.

Hallo, ich bin Silver, ich bin als Fundtier ins Tierheim gekommen und anscheinend vermisst mich niemand. Jetzt suche ich ein neues Zuhause. Ich war am Anfang sehr schüchtern und zurückhaltend, aber mittlerweile bin ich sehr aufgeschlossen und liebe es zu schmusen. Mit anderen Katzen verstehe ich mich ganz gut, weshalb eine andere Katze in meinem neuen Zuhause kein Problem wäre. Ältere Kinder fände ich auch nicht schlimm, denn die schmusen bestimmt viel mit mir. Ich brauche allerdings einen Rückzugsort, an den ich gehen kann, wenn es mir zu viel wird. Es wäre toll, wenn ich nach meiner Eingewöhnungszeit Freigang genießen könnte. Dann kann ich wieder die Natur erkunden und Mäuschen fangen. Also, falls ich Euer Interesse geweckt habe, dann meldet Euch doch mal bei meinen Pflegern im Tierheim. Euer Silver

About Silver

What life with Silver looks like

Silver is a adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Silver, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Silver?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Silver on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Silver if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Silver already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Silver isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Silver and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
