How do I contact the shelter about Avia?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Avia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Avia if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhilfe Ulm 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Avia 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 Avia 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 Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Avia 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.

Avia

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

My name is Aiva, I am a very affectionate and wild-looking female tiger kitten, currently a bit over 3 years old. I am microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and in perfect health. Three years ago, I came to my foster mom as a bottle baby with my sister and brother, and she raised us. My brother still lives happily with two other cats in his dream family. My sister was rehomed with me, and everything was going well until we were suddenly allowed outside despite our former foster mom's prohibition. Unfortunately, as feared, she was hit by a car. Now I am all alone and am supposed to go back to my foster mom. I am not allowed to go outside anymore and am not supposed to be happy alone, according to my current owner. Now I am desperately searching for a home where I will be loved and have at least one fellow animal, of course only in an environment suitable for apartment living, with enough space and certainly not exposed to the same danger as my deceased sister. For more information about me, please contact my foster mom. This animal was abandoned. This cat needs outdoor access.

Mein Name ist Aiva, ich bin ein ganz liebes verschmustes Tigerkatzenmädchen, inzwischen etwas über 3 Jahre, gechipt, geimpft, kastriert und kerngesund. Vor drei Jahren kam ich als Flaschenbaby mit meiner Schwester und meinem Bruder zu meiner Menschenpflegemama die uns groß zog. Mein Bruder lebt heute noch glücklich mit zwei andern Katzen in seiner Traumfamilie, meine Schwester wurde mit mir zusammen vermittelt, alles lief gut bis wir plötzlich durch Umzug hinaus in den Freigang durften, trotz Verbot unserer ehemaligen Pflegemama und wie befürchtet wurde sie überfahren. Jetzt bin ich ganz alleine und soll wieder zurück zu meiner Pflegemutti. Ich darf ja nicht mehr raus und sei nicht mehr glücklich, alleine, laut meiner Noch Besitzer. Jetzt suche ich dringend ein Zuhause wo ich geliebt werde und mindestens einen Artgenossen habe , natürlich nur in artgerechter Wohnungshaltung, genügend Platz und keinesfalls mehr der gleichen Gefahr ausgesetzt werde wie meine verstorbene Schwester. Für mehr Informationen über mich bitte an meine Pflegemama wenden.

About Avia

What life with Avia looks like

Avia is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. in Ulm.

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.
