Wastl

Mixed Breed · Male

Wastl is a very special little character: Funny, curious and always on hand when there's food. As soon as the bag rustles, he comes running up lightning fast. He's still a bit wary of being touched. He's cautious and a bit anxious. Whoever approaches him with calmness, patience and understanding will gradually gain his trust. Then he'll show what a lovable character he is. Outdoor time is important to him, as he was born in the wild. Wastl is neutered, microchipped and vaccinated.

DE·Show original

Kater Wastl ist ein ganz besonderer kleiner Charakter: Lustig, neugierig und immer zur Stelle, wenn es Futter gibt. Kaum raschelt die Tüte, kommt er blitzschnell angelaufen. Anfassen ist für ihn noch ungewohnt. Er ist vorsichtig und etwas ängstlich. Wer ihm mit Ruhe, Geduld und Verständnis begegnet, gewinnt nach und nach sein Vertrauen. Dann zeigt er, welch liebenswerter Charakter in ihm steckt. Freigang ist für ihn wichtig, denn er wurde in Freiheit geboren. Wastl ist kastriert, gechipt und geimpft.

About Wastl

What life with Wastl looks like

Wastl is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Hof in Hof.

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 Wastl, answered.

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