🐾❤️ The Toggenburg Animal Welfare Society is seeking a very special home for Snowy ❤️🐾 Sometimes animals that have had a tough life need a little extra. We are looking for a very special home for our castrated Scottish Fold cat Snowy - people who accept him as he is, understand his needs and provide him with patience, love and responsibility to enable him to live a beautiful life. The Scottish Fold is considered a cruel breeding breed due to its breeding characteristics. Snowy therefore has special health needs that must be taken into account in everyday life. It is important to us that his future owners have honestly and thoroughly dealt with the breed-specific health problems and are willing to accompany him accordingly. ❤️ What we wish for Snowy: a quiet, loving and harmonious home without other cats or children Dogs are no problem for Snowy in principle a spacious home absolutely access to a secure garden People who take his special health needs seriously and are willing to support him ideally people with veterinary interest, experience or corresponding training We are not looking for a temporary home for Snowy, but people who want to give him a home for life. A place where he can relax, feel safe and just be Snowy. 🥰 If you feel that Snowy might be the right fit for you and your home, we would be very happy to hear from you via WhatsApp at the number 13. Please send us your exact address and photos of your house and garden if you are serious. Maybe you are exactly the person Snowy has been waiting for. ❤️🐾 We are looking for loving people with heart, mind and the necessary understanding for his special needs Contact: 078/ 248 63 13

🐾❤️ Der Tierschutzverein Toggenburg sucht für Snowy ein ganz besonderes Zuhause ❤️🐾 Manchmal brauchen gerade die Tiere ein wenig mehr, die es im Leben nicht ganz einfach hatten. Für unseren kastrierten Scottish-Fold-Kater Snowy wünschen wir uns deshalb einen ganz besonderen Lebensplatz – Menschen, die ihn so annehmen, wie er ist, seine Bedürfnisse verstehen und ihm mit viel Geduld, Liebe und Verantwortungsbewusstsein ein schönes Leben ermöglichen. Die Scottish Fold gilt aufgrund ihrer Zuchtmerkmale als Qualzuchtrasse. Snowy bringt deshalb besondere gesundheitliche Bedürfnisse mit, die im Alltag berücksichtigt werden müssen. Uns ist wichtig, dass seine zukünftigen Menschen sich ehrlich und umfassend mit den rassetypischen gesundheitlichen Problemen auseinandergesetzt haben und bereit sind, ihn entsprechend zu begleiten. ❤️ Was wir uns für Snowy wünschen: ein ruhiges, liebevolles und harmonisches Zuhause ohne andere Katzen oder Kinder Hunde sind für Snowy grundsätzlich kein Problem ein geräumiges Zuhause unbedingt Zugang zu einem gesicherten Garten Menschen, die seine besonderen gesundheitlichen Bedürfnisse ernst nehmen und bereit sind, ihn entsprechend zu unterstützen idealerweise Menschen mit tiermedizinischem Interesse, Erfahrung oder entsprechender Ausbildung Wir suchen für Snowy keinen Platz auf Zeit, sondern Menschen, die ihm ein Zuhause für immer schenken möchten. Einen Ort, an dem er zur Ruhe kommen darf, sich sicher fühlt und einfach Snowy sein kann. 🥰 Wenn du das Gefühl hast, dass Snowy genau zu dir und deinem Zuhause passen könnte, freuen wir uns sehr über eine Nachricht via WhatsApp auf die Nummer 13. Bitte schickt uns bei ernsthaftem Interesse direkt eure genaue Adresse sowie Fotos von Haus und Garten. Vielleicht bist genau du der Mensch, auf den Snowy gewartet hat. ❤️🐾 Wir freuen uns auf liebevolle Menschen mit Herz, Verstand und dem nötigen Verständnis für seine besonderen Bedürfnisse Kontakt: 078/ 248 63 13

About Snowy

What life with Snowy looks like

Snowy is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau in Nesslau.

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 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 Snowy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Snowy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Snowy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Snowy if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Snowy 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 Snowy 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 Stiftung Tierheim Nesslau early rather than rehoming privately; they know Snowy 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.
