Adopt Juli

European Shorthair · Female

Hello! I'm Juli – a cute, brown-striped cat with a white patch and white paws. At 1.5 years old, I've already seen my fair share. Imagine – I was found outside in a Kiel city area on a totally busy street. Luckily, I was quickly brought to the animal shelter so I wouldn't end up under the wheels. Phew! But don't think that scared me. Nope, not me. Once I arrived, I immediately stepped out of my box and had no fear at all. Honestly! Miau! As an age-appropriate cat, I'm stormy and happy and I'm always excited when someone visits me. My favorite thing to do is play – wonderfully! The "Mouse on a String" game is great, and I love to chase it. And of course, there must be time for a thorough snuggling session, which is very important to me. But if I'm honest, I'm looking for a real home with great people and preferably with slightly older children. I also want to be let out again, because I don't want to give that up. With my fellow animals, it's a matter of liking them by sympathy. That's why I'd rather move in with you alone. A cat friend, I'll pick out myself in the neighborhood later. This cat needs outdoor access.

Huhu! Ich bin’s – Juli – eine niedliche, braun-getigerte Katze mit weißem Latz und weißen Pfötchen. Mit meinen 1,5 Jahren habe ich schon so Einiges erlebt. Stellen Sie sich vor – ich wurde draußen in einem Kieler Stadtgebiet an einer total befahrenen Straße gefunden. Zum Glück kam ich dann schnell ins Tierheim, damit ich nicht unter die Räder komme. Puh! Doch glauben Sie nun bloß nicht, dass mich das eingeschüchtert hat. Ne! Mich doch nicht. Hier angekommen stieg ich sofort aus meiner Box und hatte gar keine Angst. Ehrlich! Miau! Altersentsprechend bin ich eine stürmisch-glückliche Katze und ich freue mich immer, wenn mich jemand besucht. Am liebsten möchte ich dann erst einmal spielen – herrlich! Die „Maus am Band” finde ich großartig, hinter der sause ich gern her. Und danach muss natürlich noch Zeit für eine ausgiebige Schmuserunde da sein, das ist mir ganz wichtig. Doch wenn ich ehrlich bin, dann suche ich ein richtiges Zuhause bei tollen Menschen und gern auch etwas älteren Kinden. Dazu möchte ich später wieder Freigang bekommen, denn auf den will ich nicht verzichten. Mit meinen Artgenossen ist das so eine Sache. Die mag ich nach Sympathie. Deshalb möchte ich lieber allein zu Ihnen ziehen. Eine Katzenfreundin suche ich mir später lieber selbst in der Nachbarschaft aus.

About Juli

What life with Juli looks like

Juli is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Uhlenkrog Kiel in Kiel.

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 Juli, answered.

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