Adopt Speko Latius

Male

Speko Latius is an initially reserved tomcat who needs some time. Then he becomes clingy, curious, and affectionate after getting to know people. He came to our animal shelter because his owner passed away. Speko Latius has diabetes, but he is currently only receiving special food. However, a blood test should be done occasionally to check if his sugar levels have increased. He might need insulin later. Speko Latius is looking for a quiet new home with experienced cat friends who have the time. The apartment should be large enough and have several retreat areas. Children and fellow animals should not live in the household. Cat-friendly balcony: Watch this video to learn more about your cats and the balcony. We are of course available for further information.

Speko Latius ist ein anfangs reservierter Kater der etwas Zeit braucht. Dann ist er aber anhänglich, neugierig und nach dem Kennenlernen auch schmusig. Er ist zu uns ins Tierheim gekommen, da sein Halter verstorben ist. Speko Latius hat Diabetes, bekommt im Moment aber nur ein Spezialfutter. Es sollte aber immer zwischendurch mal ein Bluttest gemacht werden, ob sich die Zuckerwerte erhöht haben. Vielleicht muss er auch später Insulin bekommen. Speko Latius sucht ein ruhiges neues Zuhause, bei erfahrenen Katzenfreunden mit Zeit. Die Wohnung sollte groß genug sein und mehrere Rückzugsorte haben. Kinder und Artgenossen sollten nicht mit im Haushalt leben. Katzengerechter-Balkon: Schauen Sie sich dieses Video an, wenn Sie mehr über ihre Katzen und den Balkon erfahren möchten.

About Speko Latius

What life with Speko Latius looks like

Speko Latius is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at Tierheim Hannover in Hannover.

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.

Note from the shelter: Diabetes requiring special diet and regular blood sugar monitoring, may need insulin treatment in future

🇩🇪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 Speko Latius, answered.

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