How do I contact the shelter about Tabby?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Euskirchen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tabby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Tabby if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Euskirchen 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 Tabby 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 Tabby 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 Tierschutz Euskirchen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tabby 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.

Tabby

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Tabby is a 3-4 year old tabby cat with an exceptionally loving nature. He is affectionate, clingy and seeks the company of his humans. He is happiest when he receives attention and can simply be there. Tabby gets along well with other cats. However, we have noticed that life in a large group of cats does not suit him. He tends to get lost among them and longs for a quiet home where he doesn't have to compete for attention. More important than many of his peers is a human who has time for him and gives him the affection he so desperately craves. A secure balcony or garden where he can enjoy the sun and observe the world would make his happiness complete. Tabby is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and tested negative for FIV and FeLV and is now eagerly waiting for people who will finally give him a loving home. If you can imagine giving Tabby a loving home, please contact us. We will arrange the connection to the foster care. Just write to us. As soon as we receive your message, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Please understand that we may not always be able to respond immediately. Please give us one or two days for a response.

Tabby ist ein etwa 3–4 Jahre alter Kater mit einem ganz besonders lieben Wesen. Er ist verschmust, anhänglich und sucht die Nähe zu seinen Menschen. Am glücklichsten ist er, wenn er Aufmerksamkeit bekommt und einfach dabei sein darf. Mit anderen Katzen versteht sich Tabby gut. Trotzdem merken wir, dass ihm das Leben in einer großen Katzengruppe nicht guttut. Er geht dort eher unter und wünscht sich ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er nicht um Aufmerksamkeit konkurrieren muss. Viel wichtiger als viele Artgenossen ist für ihn ein Mensch, der Zeit für ihn hat und ihm die Zuneigung schenkt, nach der er sich so sehr sehnt. Ein gesicherter Balkon oder ein Garten, in dem er die Sonne genießen und die Welt beobachten kann, würden sein Glück perfekt machen. Tabby ist kastriert, geimpft, gechippt, entwurmt sowie negativ auf FIV und FeLV getestet und wartet nun sehnsüchtig auf Menschen, bei denen er endlich ankommen darf. Wenn Sie sich vorstellen können, Tabby ein liebevolles Zuhause zu schenken, melden Sie sich gerne bei uns. Wir stellen den Kontakt zur Pflegestelle her. Schreiben Sie uns einfach.Sobald wir Ihre Nachricht erhalten haben, werden wir uns so schnell wie möglich bei Ihnen melden.Bitte haben Sie Verständnis dafür, dass wir uns nicht immer umgehend melden können.Bitte geben Sie uns ein bis zwei Tage Zeit für eine Rückmeldung.

About Tabby

What life with Tabby looks like

Tabby is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutz Euskirchen 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.
