Grimm

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 9 years

Grimm was a feral cat who was spayed and released back into the wild through an animal welfare organization a few years ago. The extremely shy cat at the time has apparently learned over time that some people are not so bad. In any case, he is now very friendly and affectionate. However, he does not particularly care for the young cats with whom he currently shares a room and would rather have his own space. Grimm makes it clear when he does not like something and becomes quickly upset if his request for distance is not granted. Since he has spent his life on the streets, he should also have the opportunity for outdoor access in a traffic-calmed area in his future home.

DE·Show original

Grimm war ein verwilderter Kater, der vor einigen Jahren über eine Tierschutzorganisation kastriert und wieder rausgelassen wurde. Der damals extrem scheue Kater hat wohl mit der Zeit gelernt, dass manche Menschen gar nicht so übel sind. Mittlerweile ist er jedenfalls sehr freundlich und verschmust. Von den Jungkatzen, mit denen er sich aktuell das Zimmer teilt, hält er aber nicht sonderlich viel und möchte lieber seine Ruhe haben. Grimm warnt deutlich vor, wenn ihm etwas nicht passt und wird schnell ungehalten, wenn man seiner Bitte um Abstand nicht nachkommt. Da er sein bisheriges Leben auf der Straße verbracht hat, sollte er auch in seinem künftigen Zuhause wieder die Möglichkeit auf Freigang in verkehrsberuhigtem Gebiet haben.

About Grimm

What life with Grimm looks like

Grimm 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 Grimm, answered.

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