Snoopy

Male

Besonderheiten: Wohnung, gesicherter Balkon. Auf einer Pflegestelle. Hallo, ich bin Snoopy! Ich gebe es zu: Ich brauche manchmal ein bisschen länger als andere Katzen, um mich an neue Situationen zu gewöhnen. Auf meiner Pflegestelle habe ich erst einmal vorsichtig alles beobachtet und geschaut, ob hier auch wirklich alles mit rechten Dingen zugeht. Manche Dinge sind mir auch heute noch nicht ganz geheuer, dann ziehe ich mich kurz zurück und brauche etwas Ruhe. Aber weißt du was? Wenn ich erst einmal aufgetaut bin, dann bin ich ein richtiger Schatz! Ich liebe es zu spielen, herumzuflitzen und mich so richtig auszutoben und das bereits im gesetzten Alter. Genauso sehr genieße ich aber auch ausgiebige Schmuse- und Streicheleinheiten. Am liebsten bin ich immer in der Nähe meines Menschen – einfach dabei sein, das finde ich großartig. Mit Kindern ab dem Grundschulalter komme ich übrigens auch gut zurecht, wenn sie lieb und respektvoll mit mir umgehen. Ich wünsche mir ein Zuhause mit geduldigen Menschen, die mir die Zeit geben, in meinem Tempo anzukommen. Wenn du mir dein Herz schenkst, bekommst du einen treuen, fröhlichen und verschmusten Kater zurück. Vielleicht darf ich ja schon bald bei dir einziehen?

About Snoopy

What life with Snoopy looks like

Snoopy is a large adult cat waiting at Tierheim Essen in Essen.

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 Snoopy, answered.

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