Adopt Lilly

Mixed Breed · Female

Lilly was born as a stray in the wild and was luckily fed by a kind woman. At first, she was very shy, but soon developed trust in her foster mother and discovered the benefits of a warm room. She is still shy around strangers but is very friendly, cuddly, and playful with people she knows. She is looking for a nice home with the possibility of going outside. Lilly wishes for feline company in her home, as she currently lives with her two cat friends. This cat needs outdoor access.

Read original (de)

Lilly wurde als Streunerin in Freiheit geboren und zum Glück von einer tierlieben Frau angefüttert. Anfangs war sie noch sehr schüchtern, hat aber bald Vertrauen zu ihrer Ersatzmama gefasst und auch die Vorzüge von einer warmen Stube entdeckt. Sie ist bei Fremden immer noch schüchtern, aber bei Menschen, die sie kennt, ist sie sehr zutraulich, verschmust und wie alle jungen Katzen verspielt. Sie sucht ein schönes Zuhause mit Möglichkeit zum Freigang. Lilly wünscht sich in ihrem Zuhause Katzengesellschaft, da sie im Moment auch mit ihren zwei Katzenfreunden zusammenlebt.

About Lilly

What life with Lilly looks like

Lilly is a 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 Lilly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lilly?
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 Lilly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lilly 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 Lilly 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 Lilly 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 Lilly 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.
