Ducky is a sweet kitten who is excited to move into her own new home soon. She has grown up in the shelter with many other kittens, playing, eating, and sleeping together. She is very curious and loves to play with cat toys, especially cat fishing, which she can play out her energy on. She is a bit shy around humans but is eager to meet her new family. She would love to move in with another kitten or a young cat. If you would like to meet her and her friends, please contact the shelter.

Hallo, ich bin die süße Ducky Mir kribbelt es schon vor Aufregung in den Pfoten, wenn ich daran denke, dass ich nun endlich alt genug bin, um in mein eigenes, neues Zuhause zu ziehen! Bisher durfte ich hier im Tierheim behütet aufwachsen – gemeinsam mit ganz, ganz vielen anderen Kitten. Zusammen mit meinen kleinen Freunden toben, spielen, fressen und anschließend eng aneinandergekuschelt einschlafen. Genau das macht mir am meisten Freude! Deshalb möchte ich auch nicht alleine ausziehen, sondern nur gemeinsam mit einem Artgenossen oder zu einer bereits vorhandenen, jungen Katze in meinem neuen Zuhause. Ich bin sehr neugierig und habe jede Menge Flausen im Kopf - „typisch Kitten eben“, würden meine Pfleger wahrscheinlich sagen. Besonders gerne spiele ich mit Katzenangeln. Dabei kann ich mich so richtig auspowern und anschließend zufrieden in mein Körbchen kuscheln. Euch Menschen finde ich zwar interessant, aber immer noch ein bisschen gruselig. Zum Anfassen lassen brauche ich noch ein bisschen Zeit - sobald ich im neuen Zuhause bin, taue ich bestimmt bald auf. Wenn ihr mich und meine Freunde gerne einmal kennenlernen möchtet, meldet euch unbedingt bei meinen Pflegern im Tierheim. Vielleicht darf ich ja schon bald meine Köfferchen packen und in mein Für-immer-Zuhause ziehen! Ich freue mich riesig darauf, euch kennenzulernen! Eure Ducky

About Ducky

What life with Ducky looks like

Ducky is a extra-large puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Ducky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ducky?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ducky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ducky if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. 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 Ducky 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 Ducky 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 u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ducky 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.
