TarZAHN – auf der Suche nach Jane

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

My name is TarZAHN. I am male, neutered, and born around 2010. I have been waiting since July 2019 for a new home. My caretakers say about me: Tarzahn is a found animal from the region who landed with us in a desolate state. Infested with ticks, undernourished, and completely energetic, he was found at night in Grimma. Now he is revitalized and ready for a fresh start. Originally, he was supposed to be named after his finders, Jane, but after a visit to the clinic, the name was quickly found: Jane was a neutered tomcat without teeth—a TarZAHN, of course. He does just fine without teeth and eats both wet and dry food, with no further treatments needed. He can be rehomed for apartment living or as a later outdoor cat, and in our assessment, nothing stands in the way of a life as a second pet. He is an absolutely affectionate and well-socialized companion who tolerates everything life throws at him with cuddliness and love. In the last time, it seems that the animal-friendly finders have not been so many happy things, so we wish the fighter a new home where he will be generously compensated for his tough times… Who would like to fight through the jungle of life with our Tarzahn and be rewarded daily by him?

Mein Name ist TarZAHN. Ich bin männlich, kastriert und circa 2010 geboren. Ich warte seit Juli 2019 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Tarzahn ist ein Fundtier der Region, der in einem desolatem Zustand bei uns landete.Zecken, unterernährt und völlig fertig wurde er bei Nacht in Grimma aufgelesen. Nun ist er aufgepeppelt und fit für einen Neustart.Eigentlich sollte er auf Wunsch der Finder Jane heißen, allerdings war der Name nach dem Besuch in der Praxis schnell gefunden: Jane war ein kastrierter Kater ohne Zähne- einTarZAHN halt. Er kommt auch ohne Zähne wunderbar zurecht und frisst Nass und Trockenfutter, weitere Behandlungen stehen aus dem Grund nicht an. Er kann in reine Wohnungshaltung oder als späterer Freigänger vermittelt werden, einem Leben als Zweittier steht aus unserer Einschätzung nichts im Wege. Er ist ein absolut liebevoller und verschmuster Zeitgenosse, der anschmiegsam und liebevoll alles erträgt, was das Leben bereit hält.In der letzten Zeit waren es wohl auser den tierfreundlichen Findern nicht so viele glückliche Dinge, darum wünschen wir uns für den Kämpfer schnell ein neues Zuhause, wo er für seine schwere Zeit ausgiebig entschädigt wird… Wer möchte sich mit unserem Tarzahn durch den Dschungel des Lebens kämpfen und von ihm täglich dafür belohnt werden?
