Yang

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Yang is a rather shy and reserved cat who approaches new situations and people cautiously at first. With some patience and calmness, he already shows good approaches to gaining trust and becoming more affectionate. Who gives him the necessary time can look forward to gaining his trust step by step. Yang is well socialized with other cats and is therefore very well suited as a second cat. An already existing, social companion can give him additional security. We are looking for a quiet home for Yang, where he can arrive at his own pace. Since his history is unfortunately unclear, it is assumed that Yang has lived as a house cat so far. Nevertheless, there must be the possibility in his new home to enable him to go outside if he demands it after his acclimatization. Yang was tested positive for feline calicivirus. This is a virus that occurs frequently in cats and is transmitted particularly through direct contact. An infection can cause, among other things, mild cold symptoms (such as slightly watery eyes, irregular sneezing, slightly runny nose) under the influence of stress, but does not necessarily lead to complaints. The feline calicivirus is not contagious to humans.

Yang Tier-ID: 1283 Im Tierheim seit 02.06.2026 Als Zweitkatze geeignet. Hinweis zum Calicivirus: Die Katze trägt das feline Calicivirus in sich, einen weit verbreiteten Erreger des Katzenschnupfen-Komplexes. Es kann, muss aber nicht zwangsläufig, zu Symptomen wie Schnupfen, Entzündungen im Maul oder Zahnfleischproblemen führen. Mit etwas Aufmerksamkeit können betroffene Katzen ein ganz normales Katzenleben führen. Yang ist ein eher schüchterner und zurückhaltender Kater, der neuen Situationen und Menschen zunächst vorsichtig begegnet. Mit etwas Geduld und Ruhe zeigt er jedoch bereits gute Ansätze, Vertrauen zu fassen und zutraulicher zu werden. Wer ihm die nötige Zeit gibt, kann sich darauf freuen, Schritt für Schritt sein Vertrauen zu gewinnen. Mit anderen Katzen ist Yang gut sozialisiert und eignet sich daher sehr gut als Zweitkater. Ein bereits vorhandener, sozialer Artgenosse kann ihm dabei zusätzlich Sicherheit geben. Für Yang wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er in seinem eigenen Tempo ankommen darf. Da seine Vorgeschichte leider unklar ist, wird vermutet, dass Yang bisher als Wohnungskater gelebt hat. Dennoch sollte in seinem neuen Zuhause unbedingt die Möglichkeit bestehen, ihm Freigang zu ermöglichen, sofern er diesen nach seiner Eingewöhnung einfordert. Yang wurde positiv auf das feline Calicivirus getestet. Dabei handelt es sich um einen bei Katzen häufig vorkommenden Virus, der insbesondere über direkten Kontakt übertragen werden kann.

About Yang

What life with Yang looks like

Yang is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung e.V. in Germany.

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 Yang, answered.

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