Adopt Sirius, Wohnungskatze

British Shorthair · Male · Senior · 11 years

Male, neutered. Birthdate: 2015. Reserved. Sirius has lost his previous home because his owner could no longer care for him due to health reasons. Sirius is still very reserved around people. He is quite insecure, shy, and shows his fear clearly by hissing when approached too closely. Trust comes hard to him, but those who bring patience soon realize that behind his cautious facade lies a sensitive tomcat who simply needs to learn that nothing will happen to him. For this handsome gentleman, we are looking for a cozy retirement home with access to a cat-safe netted balcony.

About Sirius, Wohnungskatze

What life with Sirius, Wohnungskatze looks like

Sirius, Wohnungskatze is a senior british shorthair cat waiting at Tierdörfli Olten in Wangen bei Olten.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sirius, Wohnungskatze, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sirius, Wohnungskatze?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierdörfli Olten handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sirius, Wohnungskatze on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sirius, Wohnungskatze if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierdörfli Olten 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 Sirius, Wohnungskatze 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 Sirius, Wohnungskatze 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 Tierdörfli Olten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sirius, Wohnungskatze 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.
