Adopt Kiku

Female · Kitten

Hello, I am Kiku! I've been at the animal shelter since: 14.02.2026, Privatabgabe Unterbringung: Apartment - no single housing Gesellschaft: So far, I have lived alone, but it has become clear that I very much appreciate the presence of other cats. :) An ideal companion would be a quiet, friendly, and preferably about the same age cat. :) As for me: If you don't know me yet, I need a little time to get to know you. Please give me a bit of time so that I can come out of my "snail house." Then I am immediately a real snuggle cat and look forward to any kind of affection! :) Note: Since I constantly regurgitate my food, it still needs to be fully clarified what the cause for this is.

Hallo, ich bin KIKU! Im Tierheim seit: 14.02.2026, Privatabgabe Unterbringung: Wohnung - keine Einzelhaltung Gesellschaft: Bis jetzt habe ich zwar alleine gelebt, jedoch hat sich gezeigt, dass ich die Anwesenheit von anderen Katzen schon sehr schätze. :) Ideal wäre eine ruhige, freundliche und auf jeden Fall ungefähr gleichaltrige Katze. :) So bin ich: Wenn ich dich noch nicht kenne, brauche ich ein wenig, bis ich dir vertraue. Du musst mir bitte ein bisschen Zeit geben, damit ich mich traue, aus meinem "Schneckenhaus" herauszukommen. Dann bin ich sofort eine richtige Kuschelmaus und freue mich über jede Art von Zuneigung! :) Hinweis: Da ich eine sehr empfindliche Verdauung habe, darf ich nur ein spezielles Nassfutter fressen. Außerdem benötige ich Schilddrüsen-Medikamente, weiteres muss noch vollständig abgeklärt werden...

About Kiku

What life with Kiku looks like

Kiku is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Tierheim Wels in Wels.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kiku, answered.

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