Yin

Mixed Breed · Male

Yin was born and raised here. He is an absolute cuddle-mouse, easy to handle, likes other animals and can be rehomed as a suitable apartment cat or as a later outdoor cat. He likes to play and run around, enjoys cuddles, easily masters brave vet visits - in short, a top-class young tomcat. Who wants to finally cuddle Yin enough, the little moth deserves to find a loving home...

DE·Show original

Yin ist bei uns geboren und aufgewachsen. Er ist eine absolute Schmusemaus, pflegeleicht im Umgang, mag Artgenossen und kann in reine Wohnungshaltung oder als späterer Freigänger vermittelt werden. Er spielt und tobt gern, mag Schmuseeinheiten, meistert bravoröus Tierarztbesuche- kurzum einklasse Katerchen. Wer mag Yin endlich ausreichend bekuscheln, die kleine Motte hat es verdient, ein liebevolles Zuhause zu finden…

About Yin

What life with Yin looks like

Yin is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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 Yin, answered.

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