Sternchen

Mixed Breed · Male

Sternchen is very friendly, clingy, and cuddly with people. However, towards other cats, Sternchen is not friendly at all; in fact, he has shown himself to be very dominant and aggressive in his previous home. He shows no interest in other cats here at the animal shelter either, and it quickly develops into an unpleasant situation. We would therefore like to find a place for Sternchen as a single prince, where he can simply be a tomcat and receive lots of attention and cuddles.

Sternchen ist dem Menschen gegenüber sehr freundlich, anhänglich und verschmust. Anderen Katzen gegenüber zeigt sich Sternchen allerdings nicht freundlich, ganz im Gegenteil, er hat sich in seinem bisherigen zu Hause als sehr dominant und angriffslustig gezeigt. Auch bei uns im Tierheim, zeigt er kein Interesse an anderen Katzen, auch hier entwickelt es sich sehr schnell zu einer unschönen Situation. Wir wünschen uns also für Sternchen, einen Platz als Einzelprinz, wo er einfach Kater sein kann und viel Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheiten bekommt.

About Sternchen

What life with Sternchen looks like

Sternchen is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Wilhelmshaven in Wilhelmshaven.

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 Sternchen, answered.

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