Adopt Bow und Arrow

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Bow und Arrow, a tomcat, born around 2021, is suitable for apartment living. Bow und Arrow were initially very shy and standoffish at the animal shelter. They felt very uncomfortable in the often stressful shelter life, which is why they have now moved to a foster home. There, the boys are slowly warming up, with Bow being clearly more curious and brave. Arrow is generally more cautious, but when it comes to food, he suddenly comes out of his shell, purring with joy and snuggling his foster mom's legs. Both share a peaceful and relaxed demeanor. They cause no chaos and are more quiet companions. Therefore, a quiet new home with a cat-safe balcony or something similar is sought for Bow und Arrow. If interested in meeting them, we are happy to make contact with the foster home.

Bow und Arrow, Kater, geb. ca. 2021, Wohnungshaltung Bow und Arrow waren anfangs im Tierheim extrem schüchtern und abweisend. Sie haben sich im oft stressigen Tierheimalltag sehr unwohl gefühlt, weshalb sie inzwischen auf eine Pflegestelle umgezogen sind. Dort tauen die Jungs langsam auf, wobei Bow eindeutig der Neugierigere und Mutigere ist. Arrow ist allgemein noch vorsichtiger, aber wenn es ums Fressen geht, kommt er plötzlich aus sich heraus, schnurrt vor Freude und schmust seiner Pflegemama um die Beine. Ihre friedliche und entspannte Art haben beide gemeinsam. Sie richten kein Chaos an, sondern sind eher ruhige Zeitgenossen. Gesucht wird für Bow und Arrow daher auch eher ein ruhiges neues Zuhause mit katzensicherem Balkon oder ähnlichem. Bei Interesse an einem Kennenlernen stellen wir gerne den Kontakt mit der Pflegestelle her.

About Bow und Arrow

What life with Bow und Arrow looks like

Bow und Arrow is a 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 Bow und Arrow, answered.

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