Ellie und Lucy

Female · Senior · 11 years

Ellie und Lucy kamen zusammen mit zwei weiteren Katzen zu uns, nachdem ihre Besitzer ihre Wohnung verloren hatten. Zwei der Tiere haben bereits ein neues Zuhause gefunden, Ellie und Lucy sind noch auf der Suche nach ihrem Perfect Match. Ellie ist sehr lieb und zutraulich. Kaum hat man ihr Zimmer betreten, kommt sie auch schon angelaufen und fordert Zuwendung. Lucy ist deutlich zurückhaltender; ihr Vertrauen muss man sich erst verdienen. Vielleicht ist ihr der Stress im Tierheim aber auch zu viel. In einem schönen, ruhigen Zuhause wird sie sich bestimmt entspannen. Wir suchen für die beiden Samtpfoten ein gemeinsames Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung bei Menschen mit Katzenerfahrung, die viel Zeit für die beiden Senioren haben. Wenn Sie sich für die Adoption von Ellie und Lucy interessieren, schreiben Sie uns bitte eine ausführliche Mail.

About Ellie und Lucy

What life with Ellie und Lucy looks like

Ellie und Lucy is a senior cat waiting at Tierheim Bergheim in Bergheim.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Ellie und Lucy, answered.

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