Adopt Leni

Mixed Breed · Female

Hello, I am the little Zuckerschnute Leni. I was born on September 23, 2024, somewhere in Buch. I was found and given to a farm, but they didn't know me. I was about 6 weeks old, very small, dirty, and quite skinny, and I was very hungry. My foster momma was notified and came to pick me up right away. I ate with a big appetite and drank kitten milk from a bottle, snuggled in a soft, warm dog bed, and was very friendly. Two days later, I was already using the cat litter box… proud. I have been dewormed multiple times, microchipped, and have received my first vaccination for cat flu. I am in perfect health, round and full, very playful, and open. I am only suitable for apartment living, of course, with plenty of climbing opportunities, and only for a first-time cat owner (around the same age) or, which would be my dream, with my best friend Toffie, into my loving, own home. Not for single ownership!! If you want to know more about me, just contact my human momma. We look forward to hearing from you.

Hallo ich bin die kleine Zuckerschnute Leni. Geboren wurde ich am 23.9.24 irgendwo in Buch, ich wurde gefunden und auf einem Bauernhof abgeben wo ich aber nicht bekannt war, ich war ca. 6 Wochen, ganz klein, schmutzig ganz mager und hatte so viel Hunger. Meine Pflegemami wurde verständigt und holte mich gleich dort ab, ich habe gleich mit viel Appetit selber gegessen und meine Kittenmilch selbst geschlappert im weichen, warmen Körbchen gekuschelt, war ganz zutraulich. Zwei Tage später bin ich schon aufs Katzen WC gegangen… Stolz. Ich bin mehrfach entwurmt, gechippt, habe meine Erstimpfung Katzenschnupfen/Seuche schon bekommen, bin kerngesund, kugelrund total verspielt und aufgeschlossen. Ich werde nur in Wohnungshaltung, natürlich groß genug mit vielen Klettermögllichkeiten und nur zu einer passenden Erstkatze (ähnliches Alter) oder, das wäre mein Traum mit meiner besten Freundin Toffie, in mein liebevolles, eigenes Zuhause vermittelt. Nicht in Einzelhaltung!! Wenn du mehr über mich wissen willst dann melde dich einfach bei meiner Menschenmami. Wir freuen uns.

About Leni

What life with Leni looks like

Leni is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. in Ulm.

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 Leni, answered.

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