SPEEDY &#8211

Male · Young · 3 years

SPEEDY – outdoor cat Breed: EHK / black with white tail tip Age: 11. November 2023 Updated: 19. Juni 2026 Tomcat Speedy is rather reserved and a bit suspicious at first. When you engage with him, he shows interest in contact. In his new home, patience and time are needed for him to approach and build trust. Speedy came to us at the animal shelter with Zampa and Lucky Luke because there were too many cats living on-site. As a free-roaming cat, Speedy still needs his accustomed free run in a green environment, away from main roads, railways, etc., as he grew up in an area without traffic. The new owners should be prepared to provide the necessary patience and a lot of time to allow the tomcat to settle in. Speedy is not suitable for children. Share your interest in an animal with us via email and include the completed questionnaire for the respective animal type. You can find the questionnaire >>> HERE. Do you have a question or wish general advice? Call us at Fr. 1.20/Min. from a landline for the benefit of animal welfare ATs).

SPEEDY – Freigänger Rasse: EHK / schwarz mit weisser Schwanzspitze Alter: 11. November 2023 Aktualisiert: 19. Juni 2026 Kater Speedy zeigt sich bei recht zurückhaltend und etwas misstrauisch. Wenn man sich mit ihm beschäftigt, zeigt er sich durchaus interessiert an Kontakt. In seinem neuen Zuhause ist Geduld und Zeit nötig, damit er sich nähern und Vertrauen aufbauen kann. Speedy kam zusammen mit Zampa und Lucky Luke zu uns ins Tierheim, da vor Ort zuviele Katzen lebten. Als Freigängerkatze braucht Speedy weiterhin seinen gewohnten Freilauf in grüner Umgebung, abseits von Hauptstrassen, Bahngeleisen etc., da er in einer Gegend ohne Verkehr aufgewachsen ist. Die neuen Besitzer sollten bereit sein, die nötige Geduld und viel Zeit aufzubringen, um den Kater in Ruhe ankommen zu lassen. Zu Kindern eignet sich Speedy nicht. Teilen Sie uns Ihr Interesse für ein Tier per Email an mit und fügen den ausgefüllten Fragenkatalog für die jeweilige Tierart bei. Den Fragenkatalog finden Sie >>> HIER .

About SPEEDY &#8211

What life with SPEEDY &#8211 looks like

SPEEDY &#8211 is a young adult cat waiting at Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs in Zug (Allenwinden & Neuheim).

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 SPEEDY &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about SPEEDY &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw SPEEDY &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt SPEEDY &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs 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 SPEEDY &#8211 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 SPEEDY &#8211 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 Aargauischer Tierschutzverein ATs early rather than rehoming privately; they know SPEEDY &#8211 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.
