Theo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

Theo Theo wants a family! The small black tomcat was found in August 2024 with his sister in the dried-up creek bed of the Goldbach in the area of Kantstr. Both were immediately brought to the cat house by a cat lover and then introduced to a veterinary clinic for examination. Theo’s sister Ellie was quickly rehomed, but the little Theo is unfortunately not quite healthy and is still waiting for a family. He has a neurological disorder that somewhat limits his mobility but also makes him hyperactive. His hearing is also damaged, although the deafness does not significantly impact his life as long as he remains under human care. Theo is cuddly and loves to play. He seeks human contact. A family connection could improve the symptoms of his condition. He should be kept as an indoor cat. Theo is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Interested parties can reach out to Theo and arrange an appointment at the cat house by phone.

Theo Theo möchte eine Familie haben! Der kleine schwarze Kater wurde im August 2024 mit seiner Schwester im ausgetrockneten Bachbett des Goldbaches im Bereich der Kantstr. gefunden. Beide wurden von einer Katzenliebhaberin sofort in das Katzenhaus gebracht und von dort einer Tierarztpraxis vorgestellt und untersucht. Theo´s Schwester Ellie wurde schnell vermittelt, aber der kleine Theo ist leider nicht ganz gesund und wartet immer noch auf eine Familie. Er hat eine neurologische Störung, die ihn in seine Bewegungsfähigkeit etwas einschränkt, aber auch hyperaktiv macht. Sein Gehör ist auch geschädigt, jedoch hat die Taubheit keinen entscheidenden Einfluss auf sein Leben, natürlich nur solange er in Obhut von Menschen ist. Theo ist verschmust und spielt gerne. Er sucht den menschlichen Kontakt. Mit Familienanschluss könnten sich die Symptome seiner Krankheit verbessern. Er sollte als Wohnungskatze gehalten werden. Theo ist kastriert, geimpft und gechippt. Gerne können Interessenten Kontakt zu Theo aufnehmen und im Katzenhaus telefonisch einen Termin vereinbaren.

About Theo

What life with Theo looks like

Theo is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundtierunterkunft Halberstadt in Halberstadt.

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 Theo, answered.

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