Julchen

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

My name is Iris, I am a single mother of three wonderful children. In mid-March 2023, my four-year-old cat Jule was hit by a car. She was so severely injured that she only managed to return home after a few days. The veterinarian found that her hind leg was dislocated and due to the long time that had already passed, it was no longer possible to reset it. Therefore, an extremely expensive operation was urgently necessary. In my current situation, I was in no way able to afford these costs. In my desperation, I sought help from Tierhilfe Franken and thus got to know Frau Baur and her team! I was very moved by how warmly I was received and how committed and attentive the entire team was to help my cat and us. Only because of this, Jule could be operated on quickly. I am infinitely grateful for this help, because without the great commitment and financial assistance, I would have had to have her euthanized. Jule is now doing quite well again and the wound is healing very nicely. The coverage of the treatment costs at the veterinarian and the operation was only possible due to donations. This made me realize how important it is to support such great organizations, and I hope that many more people will find themselves who have a heart for animals and want to help. Every donation can save lives and thus also help desperate people in difficult or even hopeless situations. An infinitely large thank you to Tierhilfe Franken and to Frau Baur and her great team for their help, encouragement, warmth, commitment, and financial support! A great organization with a wonderful team and a big heart for our four-legged friends! These are usually people with a small pension, low income, or those who have unintentionally fallen into social hardship. People who have lived with their pet for many years and the beloved four-legged friend has become the center of their life. In these difficult cases, the association wants to offer a helping hand, because what belongs together should not be separated. Giving up a companion usually means a lot of pain for both human and animal! After the trend has been increasing, we occasionally provide assistance after careful examination of the affected person's economic and private situation, for example by covering individual bills from a trusted veterinarian, supplements, and food. Since Tierhilfe Franken e.V. is completely self-financed, the organization depends on donors who kindly support the work of the association.

Mein Name ist Iris, ich bin alleinerziehenden Mutter von drei wundervollen Kindern. Mitte März 2023 wurde meine vierjährige Katze Jule angefahren. Sie war so schwer verletzt, dass sie es leider erst nach ein paar Tagen zurück nach Hause schaffte. Der Tierarzt stellte fest, dass das hintere Bein ausgekugelt ist und es aufgrund der schon sehr langen Zeit nicht mehr möglich war es wieder einzurenken. Eine sehr kostenintensive Operation war somit dringend notwendig. In der derzeitigen Situation war es mir unter keinen Umständen möglich, diese Kosten aufzubringen. In meiner Verzweiflung suchte ich Hilfe bei der Tierhilfe Franken und lernte so Frau Baur und ihr Team kennen! Ich war sehr gerührt, wie herzlich man mich empfing und wie engagiert und bemüht das gesamte Team war, um meiner Katze und uns zu helfen. Einzig und allein dadurch konnte Jule schnell operiert werden. Ich bin für diese Hilfe unendlich dankbar, denn ohne das tolle Engagement und die finanzielle Hilfe hätte ich sie einschläfern lassen müssen. Meiner Jule geht es mittlerweile wieder richtig gut und die Wunde verheilt sehr schön. Die Kostenübernahme für die Behandlung beim Tierarzt und die Operation war nur aufgrund von Spenden möglich. Dadurch wurde mir erst richtig bewusst, wie wichtig es ist, dass man solche tollen Organisationen unterstützt und ich hoffe, dass sich weiterhin viele Menschen finden werden, die ein Herz für Tiere haben und helfen wollen. Jede Spende kann Leben retten und somit auch verzweifelten Menschen aus schwierigen oder gar ausweglosen Situationen helfen. Ein unendlich großes Dankeschön möchte ich an die Tierhilfe Franken und an Frau Baur und ihr tolles Team für ihre Hilfe, den Zuspruch, die Herzlichkeit, das Engagement und die finanzielle Unterstützung aussprechen! Eine tolle Organisation, mit einem wundervollen Team, mit einem großen Herz für unsere Vierbeiner! Betroffen sind hiervon meist Menschen mit einer kleinen Rente, geringem Einkommen oder die unverschuldet in soziale Schieflage geraten sind. Menschen, die schon viele Jahre mit ihrem Tier zusammenleben und der geliebte Vierbeiner zum Lebensmittelpunkt wurde. In diesen Härtefällen möchte der Verein eine helfende Hand reichen, denn was zusammengehört, sollte man nicht trennen. Die Abgabe eines Lebensgefährten bedeutet in der Regel viel Schmerz für Mensch und Tier! Nachdem die Tendenz steigend ist, geben wir nach intensiver Prüfung der wirtschaftlichen und privaten Situation der Betroffenen hin und wieder eine Hilfestellung, z.B. durch die Übernahme einzelner Rechnungen eines uns vertrauten Tierarztes, Nahrungsergänzungsmittel und Futter. Da sich die Tierhilfe Franken e.V. komplett selbst trägt ist die Organisation auf Spender angewiesen, welche die Arbeit des Vereins wohlwollend unterstützen.

About Julchen

What life with Julchen looks like

Julchen is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Julchen, answered.

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