TIGER

British Shorthair · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Tiger ist ein etwa 4 Jahre alter BKH-Mix und ein echter Menschenfreund. Er liebt die Nähe zu seinen Menschen und genießt Aufmerksamkeit und gemeinsame Zeit sehr. Bei anderen Katzen entscheidet bei Tiger allerdings die Sympathie. Er braucht nicht unbedingt einen Katzenkumpel an seiner Seite und möchte selbst entscheiden dürfen, mit wem er sein Zuhause teilt. Eine Vergesellschaftung sollte deshalb in Ruhe und mit ausreichend Zeit erfolgen. Für Tiger wünschen wir uns Menschen, die seine Persönlichkeit zu schätzen wissen und ihm ein liebevolles Zuhause geben, in dem er einfach er selbst sein darf. Wer einen menschenbezogenen Kater sucht und sich von Tigers ganz eigenem Charakter nicht abschrecken lässt, sollte ihn unbedingt kennenlernen. Vielleicht wartet hier ein ganz besonderer Begleiter. Tiger ist seit dem 23.8.2026 bei uns.Füllen Sie bitte vorab unseren Fragebogen für Interessenten aus. Ein Mitarbeiter wird sich möglichst zeitnah bei Ihnen melden.

About TIGER

What life with TIGER looks like

TIGER is a adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Dorsten in Dorsten.

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 TIGER, answered.

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