Sirius

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

The healing power that animals exert on humans is scientifically proven. We all who live with our pets know about this special ability of our fellow creatures. The love for animals remains in our hearts forever - especially as we grow older, perhaps can no longer live alone and are in need of help. The memory of our own beloved pets is often very present and painful. More and more old people's and care homes are aware of the importance of animals and realize a shared life with residents and staff. We are more than happy that the Caritas Senior and Care Home St. Martin has contacted us with the request to select an appropriate cat or tomcat for the seniors and employees. Our choice immediately fell on Sirius - a stray tomcat who was secured by our member Simone in the district of Wunsiedel. Sirius loves and adores people, but does not need companions at his side. The idea that Sirius will be petted daily by many loving hands fills us with euphoria. Our Sandra brought Sirius to Bayreuth a few weeks ago, where he quickly felt safe and loved. A look at the photo with resident Gertrud Baumann and caregiver Angelina Fursa leaves no doubt: Sirius has found his home and enjoys the special attention of the seniors to the fullest. A heartfelt thanks goes to the facility manager, Frau Tanja Blahuschek, as well as employee, Frau Sonja Poppe. Great job ❤️🐈‍⬛🐾!

Die heilende Kraft, die Tiere auf Menschen ausüben, ist wissenschaftlich belegt.Wir alle, die wir mit unseren Haustieren leben, wissen um diese besondere Fähigkeit unserer Mitgeschöpfe. Die Liebe zu Tieren tragen wir für immer in unseren Herzen – erst recht, wenn wir älter werden, vielleicht nicht mehr alleine leben können und auf Hilfe angewiesen sind. Die Erinnerung an eigene geliebte Haustiere ist oft sehr präsent und schmerzhaft. Immer mehr Alten- und Pflegeheime wissen um die Wichtigkeit von Tieren und realisieren ein Zusammenleben mit Bewohnern und Bewohnerinnen. Wir sind mehr als überglücklich darüber, dass das Caritas-Alten-und Pflegeheim St. Martin sich mit der Bitte an uns gewendet hat, eine(n) geeignete(n) Katze oder Kater für die Senioren und Mitarbeiter auszuwählen. Sofort fiel unsere Wahl auf Sirius – einen Straßenkater, der von unserem Mitglied Simone im Landkreis Wunsiedel gesichert wurde.Sirius liebt und vergöttert Menschen, braucht aber keine Artgenossen an seiner Seite.Die Vorstellung, dass Sirius künftig täglich von vielen liebevollen Händen gestreichelt wird, versetzte uns in Euphorie. Unsere Sandra brachte Sirius vor ein paar Wochen nach Bayreuth, wo er sich relativ schnell geborgen und geliebt fühlte. Ein Blick auf das Foto mit Bewohnerin Gertrud Baumann und Pflegekraft Angelina Fursa lässt keinen Zweifel zu: Sirius hat SEIN Zuhause gefunden und genießt die besondere Zuwendung der Senioren in vollen Zügen. Ein herzliches Dankeschön geht an die Einrichtungsleitung, Frau Tanja Blahuschek,sowie Mitarbeiterin, Frau Sonja Poppe. Großartig ❤️🐈‍⬛🐾!

About Sirius

What life with Sirius looks like

Sirius is a small senior mixed breed animal waiting at Tierhilfe Weidenberg in Germany.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Sirius far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sirius, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sirius?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Weidenberg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sirius on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sirius if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a animal can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierhilfe Weidenberg what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Sirius already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a animal comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tierhilfe Weidenberg directly what is included and what Sirius still needs.
What happens if Sirius 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 Tierhilfe Weidenberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sirius 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.
