Bibo & Tom

British Shorthair · Male

The two tomcats were simply abandoned by their family. Tom (white-grey) is a very outgoing and affectionate guy. He is immediately very friendly even toward strangers. Bibo (white-red) needs a little time at first to warm up. Once he has gained trust, he is an absolute cuddle cat. Both are chatty, and they are also used to children. They are very attached to each other, so we would like to place them together. If you are interested in the two of them, simply call the foster home. They can give you all the information about the cats and their

About Bibo & Tom

What life with Bibo & Tom looks like

Bibo & Tom is an adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tiere in Not Saar e.V. in Saarbrücken.

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 Bibo & Tom, answered.

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