Adopt Amico und Kethe

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Amico, the neutered tomcat born around June 1, 2023, and Kethe, the neutered kitten born around June 1, 2023, the outdoor cat Amico und Kethe (black/white), were caught outdoors and brought to the animal shelter for neutering. The two have gotten to know and love each other in the shelter. At first, both were extremely shy and standoffish like most wildlings. While it still takes some time for them to trust strangers, Amico und Kethe is now happy to receive cuddles, playtime, and treats from their trusted people. With the right amount of patience, the two have the potential to become affectionate lap cats. People are sought who can give Amico und Kethe the necessary time to fully gain trust and adapt to life in a household. Once this is achieved, they should again have the opportunity for a release to a quiet, low-traffic area.

Read original (de)

Amico, Kater, kastriert, geb. ca. 01.06.2023 und Kethe, Kätzin, kastriert, geb. ca. 01.06.2023, Freigänger Amico und Kethe (schwarz/weiß) wurden draußen eingefangen und zur Kastration ins Tierheim gebracht, wo sich die zwei kennen und lieben gelernt haben. Anfangs waren beide wie die meisten Wildfänge extrem scheu und abweisend. Bei Fremden dauert es zwar noch immer eine Weile bis sie Vertrauen fassen, aber bei ihren Bezugspersonen freuen sich Amico und Kethe auf Streicheleinheiten, Spielangel und Leckerlies. Mit der nötigen Geduld haben die zwei das Potenzial richtige Schmusekatzen zu werden. Gesucht werden daher Menschen, die Amico und Kethe die nötige Zeit geben um vollends Vertrauen zu fassen und sich an das Leben im Haushalt zu gewöhnen. Wenn das geschafft ist, sollten sie wieder die Möglichkeit auf Freigang in verkehrsberuhigtem Gebiet haben.

About Amico und Kethe

What life with Amico und Kethe looks like

Amico und Kethe is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Ludwigsburg in Ludwigsburg.

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 Amico und Kethe, answered.

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