Adopt Julius

Mixed Breed · Male

Julius Breed: European Shorthair Color: black-white Gender: male Date of Birth: approx. 06/2021 Neutered: yes Julius came to us at the animal shelter because his former owner had to move into a nursing home and could not take the cats along. At first, Julius is a very shy tomcat who likes to hide under cushions. After a proper acclimation period, he becomes affectionate and cuddly. He would like to live as a second tomcat in an apartment suitable for apartment living with a cat-safe balcony.

Zu Anfang ist Julius ein sehr schüchterne Kater, der sich gerne unter Kissen versteckt. Nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnung, ist er lieb und verschmust. Er möchte gerne als Zweit-Kater in Wohnungshaltung mit einem Katzen sicheren Balkon leben.

About Julius

What life with Julius looks like

Julius is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss e.V. in Germany.

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 Julius, answered.

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