Yota (zusammen mit Toyo)

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

"Yota" and "Toyo" are two sensitive brothers who initially meet new people with a bit of caution. However, they readily allow contact and once they build trust, both become very cuddly and enjoy the company of their humans. "Yota" has become increasingly braver and often ventures out of his hiding spots. He visibly delights in human company and is developing into an open and affectionate tomcat who thoroughly enjoys cuddles. Despite a mild ataxia that causes him to wobble slightly when walking, this does not hinder his happy and normal cat life. His missing eye also does not affect him. "Toyo," on the other hand, shows clear signs of stress at the animal shelter, which is noticeable. Currently, he still does not eat independently and is therefore hand-fed, which he accepts calmly. Since "Toyo" no longer has any teeth, he only receives mousse or very fine paste. The two brothers get along well with other cats. They could therefore be rehomed with an already existing calm and social cat or an equally relaxed tomcat. "Yota" and "Toyo" are closely bonded and will therefore only be rehomed together. For them, we are searching for a quiet home in a suitable apartment with a secure balcony where they can enjoy fresh air and sunlight. Children should not live in the household as both are very sensitive cats that require a quiet environment with minimal disturbance. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

„Yota“ und „Toyo“ sind zwei sensible Brüder, die neuen Menschen anfangs zunächst etwas vorsichtig begegnen. Kontakt lassen sie jedoch problemlos zu und sobald sie Vertrauen gefasst haben, zeigen sich beide sehr verschmust und genießen die Nähe ihrer Menschen sehr.„Yota“ wird inzwischen immer mutiger und zeigt sich gerne außerhalb seiner Verstecke. Er freut sich sichtbar über menschliche Gesellschaft und entwickelt sich immer mehr zu einem offenen und liebevollen Kater, der seine Streicheleinheiten richtig genießt. Aufgrund einer leichten Ataxie schwankt er beim Laufen etwas, was ihn jedoch überhaupt nicht daran hindert, ein glückliches und ganz normales Katzenleben zu führen. Auch sein fehlendes Auge beeinträchtigt ihn nicht. „Toyo“ hingegen zeigt sich im Tierheim deutlich gestresster, was man ihm auch anmerkt. Aktuell frisst er noch nicht selbstständig und wird deshalb von Hand gefüttert, was er aber problemlos und ruhig mitmacht. Da „Toyo“ keine Zähne mehr hat, bekommt er ausschließlich Mousse oder sehr feine Pastete.Mit anderen Katzen verstehen sich die beiden Brüder sehr gut. Sie könnten daher auch zu einer bereits vorhandenen ruhigen und sozialen Katze oder zu einem ebenso entspannten Kater vermittelt werden.„Yota“ und „Toyo“ sind eng miteinander verbunden und werden deshalb ausschließlich gemeinsam vermittelt. Für die beiden suchen wir ein ruhiges Zuhause in reiner Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon, auf dem sie frische Luft und Sonnenstrahlen genießen können. Kinder sollten nicht im Haushalt leben, da beide sehr sensible Katzen sind, die ein ruhiges Umfeld ohne viel Trubel benötigen.

What life with Yota (zusammen mit Toyo) looks like

Yota (zusammen mit Toyo) is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at BMT Tierheim Elisabethenhof 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Yota (zusammen mit Toyo), answered.

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