Tony

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

Tony, a handsome 10-year-old cat, must be given up due to time constraints and is now seeking a new home. Important to note: he has a heart condition that is treated with medication and also has a "sensitive" stomach. Tony is spayed and very people-oriented. He loves to eat and sleeps in his human's bed at night. He is no longer very playful. He only eats Kattovit Gastro in the turkey variety. He tolerates it well. He takes ACE inhibitors (half a tablet) in the morning and evening. He only tolerates snacks in very small quantities and only certain brands and varieties. (All of this will be explained in detail to his new owners!) Tony gets along with cats that are not too dominant, as well as dogs. Children are not known. He is currently a pure indoor cat with a secured balcony. It would be nice if this could remain the case for him, as he has never had outdoor access and is not familiar with the dangers. He absolutely needs people who can spend a lot of time with him and are at home a lot. For times when you are away for a few hours, he has a feeder that can be set up so that he does not have too long a downtime, as his stomach does not tolerate this well due to his chronic condition. Serious inquiries should only be made to this mobile number: Tony can be visited in 46049 Oberhausen. (19. 10. 2026)

Der hübsche Kater Tony (10) muss schweren Herzens - aus Zeitgründen - abgegeben werden und sucht nun ein neues Zuhause. Wichtig zu wissen: Er hat eine Herzschädigung, die mit Tabletten behandelt wird und zudem einen "sensiblen" Magen. Tony ist kastriert und sehr menschenbezogen. Er frisst für sein Leben gern und schläft nachts gerne im Bett bei seinem Menschen. Verspielt ist er nicht mehr so wirklich. Er frisst nur Kattovit Gastro in der Sorte Pute. Das verträgt er bestens. Die ACE Hemmer bekommt er jeweils morgens und abends (eine halbe Tablette). Snacks verträgt er nur in sehr kleinen Mengen und nur bestimmte Marken und Sorten. (Das wird seinen neuen Menschen alles detailliert erklärt! ) Tony verträgt sich mit Katzen die nicht zu dominant sind, sowie mit Hunden. Kinder sind nicht bekannt. Im Moment ist er reine Wohnungskatze mit gesichertem Balkon. Es wäre schön, wenn das so für ihn bleiben könnte, da er niemals Freigang hatte und die Gefahren nicht kennt. Er braucht unbedingt Menschen, die viel Zeit für ihn aufbringen können und viel Zuhause ist. Für die Zeit, wenn man mal ein paar Stunden länger weg ist, hat er einen Futterautomaten, den man gut einstellen kann damit er keinen zu langen Leerstand hat, denn das verträgt sein Magen leider nicht so gut durch seine chronische Erkrankung. Ernstgemeinte Anfragen richten Sie bitte nur an diese Mobilnummer: Tony kann in 46049 Oberhausen besucht werden. (19. 10. 2026)

About Tony

What life with Tony looks like

Tony is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Oberhausen in Oberhausen.

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 Tony, answered.

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