Leroy

European Shorthair · Male

Leroy was allowed to leave the mess house with other cats and is now waiting for people where he can finally find a permanent home. The handsome tomcat shows himself at the animal shelter as a well-mannered, calm, and very relaxed roommate. He enjoys cuddles and meets his surroundings in a pleasant, laid-back manner. Leroy is no thrill-seeker but rather a laid-back tomcat who particularly values the quiet moments and the closeness to his people. That’s why we wish for him a loving home where he can continue to settle in and enjoy trust. Since Leroy is familiar with living with other cats, he will only be rehomed as a second cat or together with a compatible feline friend. Pure apartment living is a prerequisite. If you are looking for a gentle and relaxed cuddly cat, you will find the perfect companion for life in Leroy. If you would like to meet him, please click on the "Request Cat" button and fill out the online form completely. This way, we can get all relevant information in advance for our first conversation.

Leroy durfte gemeinsam mit anderen Katzen einen Messiehaushalt verlassen und wartet nun auf Menschen, bei denen er endlich dauerhaft ankommen darf. Der hübsche Kater zeigt sich im Tierheim als verschmuster, ruhiger und sehr entspannter Mitbewohner. Er genießt Streicheleinheiten und begegnet seiner Umgebung auf eine angenehme, gelassene Art. Leroy ist kein Draufgänger, sondern eher ein gemütlicher Kater, der die ruhigen Momente und die Nähe zu seinen Menschen besonders schätzt. Gerade deshalb wünschen wir uns für ihn ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem er weiterhin in Ruhe ankommen und Vertrauen genießen darf. Da Leroy das Zusammenleben mit anderen Katzen kennt, wird er ausschließlich als Zweitkatze oder gemeinsam mit einer passenden Samtpfote vermittelt. Reine Wohnungshaltung ist Voraussetzung. Wer einen sanften und entspannten Schmusekater sucht, findet in Leroy einen wunderbaren Begleiter fürs Leben. Wenn Sie ihn kennenlernen möchten, klicken Sie bitte auf den Button „Katze anfragen“ und füllen Sie das Online-Formular vollständig aus. So erhalten wir vorab alle relevanten Informationen für ein erstes Gespräch.

About Leroy

What life with Leroy looks like

Leroy is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Ludwigshafen in Ludwigshafen/Rheim.

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 Leroy, answered.

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