Vick

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 5 months

Pet ID: This is me! Fancy meeting up? Name: Vick Breed: Domestic Short Hair Gender: Male, neutered Age: 02-2026 In the shelter since: July 17, 2026 Vick is a beautiful young tomcat who is currently still a bit shy. We recently took him in from our Romanian animal welfare colleagues in Brasov. Like his fellow residents, Vick was found on the street and then ended up as a stray cat at our partner shelter, the private Victory Shelter. Unfortunately, in his home country, he has virtually no chance of being adopted. That’s why we—whenever our capacity allows—take in animals from our partner projects to give them a fresh start in life. His future humans should live in a relatively quiet environment and have experience with cats. Vick is certainly not a velvet paw who immediately jumps onto strangers’ laps and curls up. You’ll need to earn his trust—and that takes time and patience. But the effort will pay off, and we’re certain that once he’s gained your trust, you’ll have found a friend for life in Vick. Do you have a question about this animal? Feel free to call us: Mon-Fri. Or write to us: Send inquiry Sponsorship application for Vick – Tierhafen Bad Karlshafen Some of our protégés need a little extra patience when finding a suitable home—whether due to illness, age, or special personality traits.

Tierausweis Das bin ich! Lust auf ein Treffen? Name: Vick Rasse: EKH Geschlecht: männlich kastriert Alter: 02-2026 Im Tierheim seit: 17.07.2026 Vick ist ein bildschöner, zur Zeit aber noch etwas schüchterner Jungkater, den wir kürzlich von unseren rumänischen Tierschutzkollegen in Brasov übernommen haben. Vick wurde wie seine Mitbewohner auf der Straße gefunden und ist dann als Fundkater in unser Partnertierheim, das private Victory Shelter, gekommen. In seiner Heimat hat er leider so gut wie keine Vermittlungschancen. Daher übernehmen wir - wann immer es unsere Platzkapazitäten erlauben - Tiere aus unseren Partnerprojekten, um ihnen einen Neustart ins Leben zu ermöglichen.Seine Menschen sollten in einem eher ruhigen Umfeld leben und über Katzenerfahrung verfügen. Vick ist mit Sicherheit keine Samtpfote, die Fremden gleich auf den Schoß springt und sich einrollt. Sein Vertrauen muss man sich erarbeiten und hierfür die Zeit und Geduld mitbringen. Aber die Mühe lohnt sich und wir sind uns sicher, dass, wenn er einmal Vertrauen gefasst hat, man mit Vick einen Freund fürs Leben gefunden hat. Sie haben eine Frage zu diesem Tier? Rufen Sie uns gerne an: Mo- Fr. und Oder schreiben Sie uns: Anfrage senden Patenschaftsantrag für Vick - Tierhafen Bad Karlshafen Mancher Schützling muss bei der Suche nach einem geeigneten Zuhause etwas mehr Geduld aufbringen. Sei es aufgrund einer Krankheit, seines Alters oder besonderer Charakterzüge.

Mit der Übernahme einer Patenschaft helfen Sie uns bei der täglichen und medizinischen Versorgung und Unterbringung unserer Tiere. Patenschaften sind ab einem Monatsbeitrag von 10 Euro möglich. Darüber hinaus können Sie die Höhe Ihres Beitrags selbstverständlich selbst festlegen.

About Vick

What life with Vick looks like

Vick is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Name in Kassel.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Vick, answered.

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