KUKU

Scottish Fold · Male · Young · 1 year

Our Scottish Fold cat Kuku came to us as part of a seizure. He was born around October 2025 and is already neutered. Kuku is a very people-oriented, affectionate and talkative cat who loves the company of his humans above all else. He is lively, playful and enjoys any form of attention. With his open and trusting nature, he quickly wraps his handlers around his paw. Kuku is well suited for families with children who already understand how to treat animals respectfully. Kuku gets along well with other cats and should not be kept as a single cat. He absolutely needs a suitable feline partner because contact with other cats is very important to him. We wish for Kuku a loving home in apartment living. A connected balcony would be ideal so he can safely enjoy fresh air and observe his surroundings. Since Kuku cannot jump due to his physical limitations, his new home should be designed as barrier-free as possible. Stairs or small climbing aids enable him to reach his favorite spots independently. Kuku suffers from several chronic health problems due to his Scottish Fold breeding. He has severe malformations of the legs and tail and needs painkillers on an ongoing basis in order to live with minimal discomfort. In addition, Kuku suffers from chronic digestive problems. Therefore, he requires special food as well as supportive dietary supplements on a permanent basis. Due to his short nose, Kuku makes a constant breathing noise, and his ears must be cleaned regularly. Due to his illnesses, regular veterinary check-ups and treatments are necessary. This can result in significantly higher veterinary costs compared to a healthy cat. Prospective owners should be aware that Scottish Fold cats belong to the cruel breeding and often suffer from painful cartilage and skeletal diseases. Therefore, Kuku is looking for people who will accompany him with a lot of understanding, care and willingness to meet his health needs on an ongoing basis.

Unser Scottish Fold Kater Kuku kam im Rahmen einer Sicherstellung zu uns. Er wurde ca. im Oktober 2025 geboren und ist bereits kastriert. Kuku ist ein sehr menschenbezogener, verschmuster und gesprächiger Kater, der die Nähe seiner Menschen über alles liebt. Er ist temperamentvoll, verspielt und freut sich über jede Form der Aufmerksamkeit. Mit seiner offenen und zutraulichen Art wickelt er seine Bezugspersonen schnell um die Pfote. Kuku eignet sich gut für Familien mit Kindern, die bereits verstehen, wie man respektvoll mit Tieren umgeht. Mit Artgenossen ist Kuku gut verträglich und sollte nicht als Einzelkatze gehalten werden. Er benötigt unbedingt einen passenden Katzenpartner, da ihm der Kontakt zu Artgenossen sehr wichtig ist. Für Kuku wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung. Ein vernetzter Balkon wäre ideal, damit er sicher frische Luft genießen und seine Umgebung beobachten kann. Da Kuku aufgrund seiner körperlichen Einschränkungen nicht springen kann, sollte sein neues Zuhause möglichst barrierearm gestaltet sein. Treppen oder kleine Aufstiegshilfen ermöglichen ihm, seine Lieblingsplätze dennoch selbstständig zu erreichen. Kuku leidet aufgrund seiner Scottish-Fold-Zucht an mehreren chronischen gesundheitlichen Problemen. Er weist starke Fehlstellungen der Beine und des Schwanzes auf und benötigt dauerhaft Schmerzmittel, um möglichst beschwerdefrei leben zu können. Außerdem leidet Kuku unter chronischen Verdauungsproblemen. Er benötigt daher dauerhaft Spezialfutter sowie unterstützende Futterzusätze. Durch seine kurze Nase zeigt Kuku ein dauerhaftes Atemgeräusch, zudem müssen seine Ohren regelmäßig gereinigt werden. Aufgrund seiner Erkrankungen sind regelmäßige tierärztliche Kontrollen und Behandlungen notwendig. Dadurch können im Vergleich zu einer gesunden Katze deutlich höhere Tierarztkosten entstehen. Interessenten sollten sich bewusst sein, dass Scottish Fold Katzen zu den Qualzuchten gehören und häufig unter schmerzhaften Knorpel- und Skeletterkrankungen leiden. Kuku sucht deshalb Menschen, die ihn mit viel Verständnis, Fürsorge und der Bereitschaft begleiten, seine gesundheitlichen Bedürfnisse dauerhaft zu erfüllen. Liebe Interessentinnen und Interessenten, wir freuen uns sehr, dass vielleicht schon bald einer unserer Schützlinge bei Ihnen ein neues Zuhause finden darf.

About KUKU

What life with KUKU looks like

KUKU is a young adult scottish fold cat waiting at Tierschutzverein München.

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 KUKU, answered.

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