Tommy

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

tomcat Tommy, around 2-3 years old, is looking for a new home. Tommy comes from a tough husbandry with many cats. That's probably why he is also FIV positive (Leukos test was negative). Tommy is a sweet tomcat who likes other cats and now also dogs. He just doesn't get along with small children. He is dewormed and microchipped. And he is looking for a place in an apartment with a secured balcony, and maybe there will also be a cat-friendly person who is FIV positive. Tommy is still living at a foster home and is overjoyed about a new home of his own. Who would like to visit him? Contact the foster home for more information. Please contact at or .

Nur mit kleinen Kindern kommt er nicht klar. Er ist entwurmt und gechippt. Und sucht einen Platz in der Wohnung mit gesichertem Balkon, und vielleicht findet sich ja auch ein Katzenfreund, der ebenfalls FIV positiv ist. Tommy lebt zur Zeit noch auf einem Pflegeplatz und freut sich tierisch über ein neues eigenes Zuhause. Wer möchte ihn besuchen? Der Kontakt zum Pflegeplatz wird hergestellt.

About Tommy

What life with Tommy looks like

Tommy is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tommy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tommy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tommy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tommy if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Tommy 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 Tommy 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 Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tommy 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.
