Toby

Male · Young · 3 years

Toby ist ein ruhiger, gemütlicher, verspielter und sehr verschmuster, 3-Jähriger Britisch-Kurzhaarkater(Silber-Tabby) Er ist in einer Familie mit Kleinkindern aufgewachsen, aber ohne Freigang. Er ist leicht übergewichtig und benötigt seit Kurzem wegen diagnostiziertem Harngries, ausschliesslich «Urinaryfutter», was er auch gerne frisst. Am liebsten geniesst er die Aussicht vom grossen Balkon/Terrasse. Auch als Freilaufkatze in ruhiger Gegend wäre gut möglich. Toby wünscht sich wieder der Mittelpunkt in einer Familie mit Kindern, oder bei Menschen zu sein, wo er die nötige Liebe, Aufmerksamkeit und Pflege bekommt.

About Toby

What life with Toby looks like

Toby is a young adult cat waiting at Cat-Box Gams in Cat Box.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Toby, answered.

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