Overview

• The Tierheim Nürnberg says puppy Grisu is available only to a non‑smoking rural home with a garden or nearby green space due to severe breathing limits and minimal walking tolerance.
• Grisu was brought in via an illegal import, spent a prolonged quarantine, and is described as a classic case of harmful breeding with an almost absent nose, a too‑narrow trachea, and a body weight of about 1.5 kilograms.
• Prospective adopters are advised to expect potentially high veterinary costs, to monitor his dental development, and to note that corrective airway surgery may not be feasible.
• A separate appeal lists kitten Pinky as SARS‑CoV‑2 positive and eligible only for a household with a cat already proven positive, with a preference for indoor housing and a secured balcony.
• Interested parties must complete the shelter’s interest form for follow‑up, and the Facebook post about Grisu drew hundreds of comments and thousands of reactions and shares.
