Susi und Franz

Female · Senior · 11 years

Palliativplatz für älteres Katzenpärchen gesucht! Franz (18) und Susi (11) suchen gemeinsam einen Gnadenplatz. Nach dem Tod ihres Besitzers kamen sie im März zu uns ins Tierheim und suchen nun ein neues Zuhause, in dem sie einen ruhigen und schönen Lebensabend verbringen können. Die beiden sind sehr scheu und benötigen Zeit, um anzukommen und Vertrauen zu fassen. Susi möchte bisher noch nichts von Menschen wissen und versteckt sich. Wird sie bedrängt, kann sie auch zubeißen. Franz ist neugierig und lässt sich auch anfassen, wenn er Vertrauen gefasst hat. So genießt er bereits manchmal ein paar kleine Streicheleinheiten. Leider sind die beiden chronisch krank. Bei Susi steht der Verdacht eines Lebertumors im Raum, Franz hat diverse Spondylosen an der Wirbelsäule, Struvit und eine Umfangsvermehrung in der Blase. Noch dazu wiesen sein Herz und seine Lunge beim letzten Röntgen Auffälligkeiten auf. Franz benötigt aufgrund des Struvit Urinary-Futter. Die beiden sind Wohnungskatzen. Kinder und andere Haustiere sollten nicht im neuen Zuhause leben, auch häufiger Besuch oder ein turbulenter Alltag würden die beiden überfordern. Wir wünschen uns für Franz und Susi geduldige, katzenerfahrene Menschen mit einem ruhigen Alltag, die den beiden noch eine schöne Zeit außerhalb des Tierheims ermöglichen.

About Susi und Franz

What life with Susi und Franz looks like

Susi und Franz is a senior cat waiting at Tierheim Nürnberg in Nuremberg.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Susi und Franz, answered.

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