Dobby und Salem

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Salem (male black) and Dobby (male tiger-striped) have gotten to know each other and become friends at the foster home. Their respective siblings have already found great homes. Salem came from a garden community and is approximately 3-4 months old. She is a smart, curious but very reserved cat. After an initial fearful hiss, she already allows herself to be stroked. Dobby is not particularly shy, except in front of human hands. When playing and at the food bowl, he is brave and the first to check out what the two-legged being is doing. By now, Dobby has also become the ultimate snuggler.

Salem (männlich schwarz) und Dobby (männlich getigert) haben sich auf der Pflegestelle kennen gelernt und angefreundet. Ihre jeweiligen Geschwister haben schon ein tolles Zuhause gefunden. Salem stammt aus einer Gartensiedlung und ist ca. 3-4 Monate alt. Sie ist eine schlaue, neugierige aber sehr zurückhaltende Katze. Nach einem anfänglichen ängstlichen Fauchen lässt sie sich bereits streicheln. Dobby kennt wenig Scheu, außer vor der menschlichen Hand. Beim Spielen und am Futternapf ist er mutig der erste und schaut auch ganz interessiert, was der Zweibeiner so macht. Inzwischen ist Dobby auch zum Oberschmuser mutiert. Beide sind sehr offene Katzen, eine

About Dobby und Salem

What life with Dobby und Salem looks like

Dobby und Salem is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. in Ulm.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Dobby und Salem, answered.

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