Valentin

Male · Adult · 8 years

Valentin had to leave his family due to circumstances and is now looking for new people who would like to take the loving and affectionate cat in. Valentin lives at a foster home at the moment and can be visited there by phone appointment. The handsome cat would love a garden or yard as he enjoys being outside when the weather is nice. Anyone thinking Charly wouldn't seek contact with humans will be proven wrong! He is very affectionate and enjoys being close to people.

Valentin musste umständehalber seine Familie verlassen und sucht nun nach neuen Menschen, die den lieben und zutraulichen Kater bei sich aufnehmen möchten. Valentin lebt zur Zeit in einer Pflegestelle und kann dort, nach telefonsicher Rücksprache, besucht werden. Der hübsche Kater sehr sich nach einem Garten oder Hof, denn er ist bei schönem Wetter gerne draußen unterwegs. Wer denkt, dass Valentin dann nicht den Kontakt zu den Zweibeinern suchen wird, hat sich geirrt! Denn er ist sehr verschmust und genießt die Nähe. von uns Menschen.

About Valentin

What life with Valentin looks like

Valentin is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Mayen in Mayen.

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 Valentin, answered.

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