Stümmelchen und Max

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Age: born October 2019 | Gender: female and male | Brief description: outdoor cat, reserved | We are Stümmelchen (tortoiseshell) and Max (white tabby). Both of us have not had a good past. I (Stümmelchen) lost part of my tail in an accident, and Mäxchen was bullied by his former roommates here at the shelter. Now, in a different room, we have found each other! We would like to travel together, preferably to the countryside, outdoors! Would you perhaps give us a chance?

Alter: geboren Oktober 2019 | Geschlecht: weiblich und männlich | Kurztext: Freigänger, zurückhaltend | Wir sind Stümmelchen (bunt) und Max (weiß getigert). Beide haben wir keine schöne Vergangenheit, ich (Stümmelchen) habe durch einen Unfall einen Teil meines Schwanzes verloren und Mäxchen wurde von seinen ehemaligen Zimmernachbarn hier in der Auffangstation gemoppt. Jetzt aber in einem anderen Zimmer haben wir uns gefunden! Gerne möchten wir zusammen ausreisen, am liebsten aufs Land, nach draussen! Wollt ihr uns vielleicht eine Chance geben?

About Stümmelchen und Max

What life with Stümmelchen und Max looks like

Stümmelchen und Max is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Meinerzhagen / Kierspe e.V. in Germany.

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 Stümmelchen und Max, answered.

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