Lilo

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Lilo is one of our hoarding cats. He came to us in early June with about 30 other cats. He comes from a purely indoor environment and has probably had little experience and no human contact. Therefore, he is still shy here. Unfortunately, we cannot say whether this will improve over time. However, he is already showing interest and comes quite close when feeding. We are looking for a home for Lilo in indoor housing as a second cat. Whether you adopt 2 or take him to an existing cat here does not matter.

Lilo ist einer unserer Hordingkatzen. Er kam Anfang Juni mit ca. 30 anderen Katzen zu uns. Er kommt aus der reinen Wohnungshaltung und hat dort wahrscheinlich wenig erlebt und keinen Menschenkontakt bekommen. Deshalb ist er hier auch noch schüchtern. Ob dies mit der Zeit besser wird können wir leider nicht sagen. Allerdings zeigt er schon Interesse und kommt beim Füttern schon recht nah. Für Lilo suchen wir ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung als Zweitkatze. Ob man hier 2 Adoptiert oder Ihn zu einer vorhandenen Katze nimmt ist egal.

About Lilo

What life with Lilo looks like

Lilo is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Würzburg in Würzburg.

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 Lilo, answered.

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