How do I contact the shelter about Uno?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Lüneburg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Uno on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Uno if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Lüneburg 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 Uno 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 Uno 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 Lüneburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Uno 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.

Likely adopted

Uno

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 12 years

Since Uno came to us at our shelter, the handsome tomcat has generally shown an open attitude towards people and enjoys cuddle sessions from time to time. However, in some situations, Uno reacts sensitively when feeling pressured or when his boundaries are not respected, then showing clear defensive behavior. Therefore, we wish for Uno to find a home with cat-experienced people who respect his boundaries and give him the necessary time to settle in. Living children in the household should be at least 12 years old and bring understanding for __UNO__'s needs and withdrawal possibilities. Whether he gets along with other cats, we have not been able to test yet. After an adjustment period, Uno wishes to have the possibility of going out for walks in his new home, so he can explore his surroundings and release his energy.

Seit Uno bei uns im Tierheim ist, zeigt sich der hübsche Kater Menschen gegenüber grundsätzlich aufgeschlossen und genießt auch gerne mal ausgiebige Kuscheleinheiten. In manchen Situationen reagiert Uno jedoch empfindlich, wenn er bedrängt wird oder seine Grenzen nicht eingehalten werden, dann zeigt er ein deutliches Abwehrverhalten. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für Uno ein Zuhause bei Katzenerfahrenen Menschen, die seine Grenzen respektieren und ihm die nötige Zeit zum Ankommen geben. Im Haushalt lebende Kinder sollten mindestens 12 Jahre alt sein und Verständnis für Unos Bedürfnisse und Rückzugsmöglichkeiten mitbringen. Ob er mit anderen Katzen verträglich ist konnten wir bisher noch nicht testen. Für sein neues Zuhause wünscht sich Uno nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit die Möglichkeit zum Freigang, damit er seine Umgebung erkunden und seinen Bewegungsdrang ausleben kann. Das Formular können Sie hier herunterladen und ausgefüllt mitbringen: Einverständniserklärung

About Uno

What life with Uno looks like

Uno is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Lüneburg in Lueneburg.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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.
