Tuco

Unknown · Adult · 7 years

verschmust und ruhig, menschbezogen, Einzelkater - weiter unten lesen Sie mehr Über Tuco Kater Tuco ist totunglücklich, denn er wurde abgegeben nachdem das Paar Nachwuchs bekam und das Baby leider allergisch reagierte. Er hat sehr unter der Trennung gelitten! Wir suchen für den lieben Kater Menschen mit Katzenerfahrung, denn er verteilt auch schon mal einen Liebesbiss. Da sollte man schon besser ein bisschen Erfahrung haben und die Katzensprache beherrschen. Wir gehen aber davon aus, dass sich das auch wieder gibt, wenn er endlich ein liebevolles Zuhause gefunden hat. Kinder sollten daher aber nicht in seinem neuen Zuhause leben. Tuco hat noch dazu eine Futtermittelallergie und verträgt kein Nassfutter und überhaupt kein Huhn! Das macht die Fütterung recht einfach, denn er bekommt ein bestimmtes Trockenfutter, das er gut verträgt und von dem wir auch noch einen ganzen Sack haben. Für Tuco wünschen wir uns Freigang oder Freigang in einem gesicherten Garten oder Hof.

About Tuco

What life with Tuco looks like

Tuco is a adult cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Russelsheim in Rüsselsheim.

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 Tuco, answered.

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