How do I contact the shelter about Bulma?

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

Can I adopt Bulma if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Velbert 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 Bulma 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 Bulma 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 Velbert early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bulma 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.

Bulma

Female · Adult · 8 years

Temperament: Apartment living / Single cat Breed: Burmese Color: chocolate-tortie-smoke Date of birth: July 16, 2018 Gender: female Spayed: yes In the shelter since: March 20, 2026 Bulma was surrendered to our shelter because her needs could no longer be met. Now we’re looking for a very special home for this petite lady cat. Our Bulma always shows her friendly side and can’t get enough of petting and cuddling sessions. She’s an incredibly gentle, sensitive, and people-oriented companion who longs for a peaceful, cozy sanctuary. Since she doesn’t like hustle and bustle and needs plenty of quiet time to feel comfortable, she’d like to rule her new kingdom as a proud single princess. Due to a chronic intestinal condition, Bulma requires consistent specialized food and careful attention. However, with the right diet and lots of affection, she manages her daily life absolutely wonderfully. We’re looking for loving people for Bulma who can spend plenty of time with her, are often at home, and can offer her a calm environment (without small children).

Haltung: Wohnung / Einzelkatze Rasse: Burma Farbe: choc-tortie-smoke Geb.-Datum: 16.07.2018 Geschlecht: weiblich Kastriert: ja Im Tierheim seit: 20.03.2026 Bulma wurde bei uns im Tierheim abgegeben, weil man ihren Bedürfnissen nicht mehr gerecht werden konnte. Nun suchen wir für die zierliche Kätzin ein ganz besonderes Zuhause. Unsere Bulma zeigt sich stets von ihrer freundlichen Seite und kann von Streichel- und Schmuseeinheiten gar nicht genug bekommen. Sie ist eine unglaublich feine, sensible und menschenbezogene Begleiterin, die sich nach einer friedlichen Wohlfühloase sehnt. Da sie Trubel nicht mag und viel Ruhe für ihr Wohlbefinden braucht, möchte sie ihr neues Reich als stolze Einzelprinzessin regieren. Aufgrund einer chronischen Darmerkrankung benötigt Bulma konsequent ihr Spezialfutter und eine achtsame Pflege. Mit der passenden Ernährung und ganz viel Zuneigung meistert sie ihren Alltag aber absolut großartig. Für Bulma suchen wir liebevolle Menschen, die viel Zeit mit ihr verbringen, oft zu Hause sind und ihr ein ruhiges Umfeld (ohne kleine Kinder) bieten können.

About Bulma

What life with Bulma looks like

Bulma is a large adult cat waiting at Tierheim Velbert in Velbert.

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.
