Adopt Bellatrix und Pollux

Female · Young · 2 years

Bellatrix und Pollux, kittens, born in September 2023, are former residents of our shelter. Bellatrix and Pollux, like most of our sheltered animals, originally came from a wild population. They were soon the most approachable in their group and even found a new home. Recently, they were returned due to aggressive behavior. We do not know why the two behaved so strangely. Since their return to the animal shelter, they have shown curiosity, albeit cautiously, and Bellatrix especially enjoys being petted. A new foster home is sought with patient people who can also provide a more settled release for the girls later. This cat needs outdoor access.

Bellatrix und Pollux, Kätzinnen, geb. 09/2023, Freigängerinnen Die Schwestern Bellatrix & Pollux stammen wie die meisten unserer Schützlinge ursprünglich aus einem Wildbestand. Sie waren schon bald die Zugänglichsten aus ihrer Gruppe und hatten sogar schon ein neues Zuhause gefunden. Vor Kurzem wurden sie nun wegen aggressivem Verhalten zurückgebracht. Wir wissen nicht, warum sich die zwei so benommen haben. Seit sie wieder im Tierheim sind, zeigen sie sich neugierig, wenn auch etwas vorsichtig und besonders Bellatrix schmust auch richtig gerne. Gesucht wird ein neuer Wirkungskreis bei geduldigen Menschen, die den Mädels später auch verkehrsberuhigten Freigang bieten können.

About Bellatrix und Pollux

What life with Bellatrix und Pollux looks like

Bellatrix und Pollux is a young adult 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bellatrix und Pollux, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bellatrix und Pollux?
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 Bellatrix und Pollux on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bellatrix und Pollux 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 Bellatrix und Pollux 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 Bellatrix und Pollux 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 Bellatrix und Pollux 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.
