How do I contact the shelter about Balu und Bobby?

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 Balu und Bobby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Balu und Bobby 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 Balu und Bobby 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 Balu und Bobby 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 Balu und Bobby 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.

Balu und Bobby

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

We are Balu und Bobby born on April 24, 2024, two brother tigers. With just under 5 days old, we arrived together with our foster mom, who has a lung infection. Three of our siblings had already passed away, and our mom was still far too young, herself still a kitten. With bottles, we were lovingly raised here, and when we couldn't walk until we were nearly 4 weeks old, only crawling, our human mom, with much love, managed to do massages and convalescent gymnastics after a few weeks so that we are now completely healthy and run through the whole house and zip up and down the scratching posts as if nothing had ever happened. We are both microchipped, vaccinated, and of course, we use the litter box and are completely healthy. We are now looking for a loving forever home together where we can live a happy shared cat life. We will only be rehomed in suitable apartment living situations, of course with enough space, or in secure gardens where we cannot run onto the street. For any questions, please contact our foster mom.

Wir sind Balu und Bobby geb. am 24.4.2024 zwei Tigerbrüder. Mit knapp 5 Tagen kamen wir zusammen zu unserer Pflegemama , mit Lungenentzündung, drei unserer Geschwister waren schon gestorben, unsere Mami noch viel zu jung , selbst noch ein Katzenkind. Mit der Flasche wurden wir liebevoll hier groß gezogen und als wir auch noch nicht mit 4 Wochen laufen konnten, nur kriechen, hat es unsere Menschenmama mit viel Liebe Massagen und Krankengymnastik nach einigen Wochen geschafft das wir jetzt kerngesund durch das ganze Haus jagen und die Kratzbäume rauf und runter sausen als wäre nie was gewesen. Wir sind beide gechipt, geimpft, selbstverständlich gehen wir auf Katzen WC kerngesund und suchen jetzt nur zusammen ein liebevolles für immer Traumzuhause, wo wir ein glückliches gemeinsames Katzenleben leben dürfen. Wir werden auch nur in Wohnungshaltung, selbstverständlich mit genügend Platz oder auch in gesicherten Garten, wo wir nicht auf die Straße laufen können vermittelt. Bei Fragen einfach unsere Pflegemami kontaktieren.
