Spider-Man

Male · Young · 2 years

Our stray cat Spider-Man is looking for understanding and patient cat lovers who accept and love him as he is. Time will tell if he will ever fully trust his new owners. At the shelter, he has so far had a caregiver who can approach him without causing him panic. However, the reserved observer only comes to get his food when we leave the room. Our cat definitely wants a quiet home without dogs and children under 12. He might benefit from a companion in his new home to help him come out of his shell. As soon as Spider-Man feels completely at home, he longs for a large territory to roam, far from busy roads. He will not be placed in the Chur area. If you are interested, please fill out the application form for cats. Breed: EHK Zuchtland: unknown Location: Switzerland Sex: male, neutered Date of birth: approximately 01/01/2024 Living situation: outdoor access to a quiet territory

Unser Wildfang Spider-Man ist auf der Suche nach verständnisvollen und geduldigen Katzenmenschen, die ihn so akzeptieren und liebhaben, wie er ist. Ob er sich je ganz seinen neuen Besitzern anvertrauen wird, wird die Zeit zeigen. Bei uns im Tierheim hat er bisher eine Bezugsperson, die sich ihm Annähern kann, ohne das er Panik bekommt. Jedoch kommt der zurückhaltende Beobachter sein Futter erst holen, sobald wir den Raum verlassen. Auf jeden Fall wünscht sich unser Kater ein ruhiges Zuhause, ohne Hunde und Kinder unter 12 Jahren. Möglicherweise würde ihm aber ein Gspändli im neuen Daheim eine Stütze sein, um mehr aus sich herauskommen zu können. Sobald sich Spider-Man am neuen Ort vollkommen wohl fühlt, sehnt er sich nach einem weitläufigen Streifgebiet, welches fernab von stark befahrenen Straßen liegt. Er wird nicht im Raum Chur vermittelt. Bei Interesse füllen Sie bitte das Bewerbungsformular für Katzen aus. Rasse: EHK Zuchtland: unbekannt Aufenthaltsort: Schweiz Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geburtsdatum: ca 01.01.2024 Haltung: Freigang in ein ruhiges Streifgebiet

About Spider-Man

What life with Spider-Man looks like

Spider-Man is a young adult cat waiting at Tierheim und Tierhotel Arche Chur in Switzerland.

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 Spider-Man, answered.

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