Valery

Mixed Breed · Male

Valery is a beautiful tomcat who lives calmly and enjoys his life. Being near him makes one want to meditate. The soft-pawed cat likes it cozy and loves to watch his surroundings from a warm spot. He has never mistaken furniture for the scratching post. Our aristocrat loves his person more than anything, loves to snuggle with him, lets himself be carried around, and enjoys cuddling. With a heavy heart, his current owner must now separate from him, as there are other cats with older rights in the household, but he unfortunately does not tolerate other "gods" beside him. The little prince is not a big wanderer. House and garden are his territory, a short walk is enough for him. A nice quiet place in the green, a person just for himself, and Valery's cat happiness would be perfect.

DE·Show original

Valery ist ein wunderschöner Kater, der in sich ruhend und entspannt sein Leben sichtlich genießt. In seiner Nähe ist man versucht zu meditieren. Die Samtpfote mag es gemütlich und liebt es an einem molligen Plätzchen ihre Umgebung zu beobachten. Möbelstücke hat er bisher noch nie mit dem Kratzbaum „verwechselt“. Unser Aristocat mag seinen Menschen über alles, liebt es mit ihm zu schmusen, lässt sich umher tragen und kuschelt gerne. Mit schwerem Herzen muss sich dennoch sein jetziges Frauchen von ihm trennen, da noch weitere Katzen mit älteren Rechten im Haushalt leben, aber er leider keine anderen „Götter“ neben sich duldet. Der kleine Prinz ist kein großer Streuner. Haus und Garten sind sein Revier, mal eine kurze Runde drehen genügt ihm. Ein schönes, verkehrsberuhigtes Plätzchen im Grünen, einen Menschen für sich alleine und Valerys Katerglück wäre perfekt.

About Valery

What life with Valery looks like

Valery is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Valery, answered.

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