Lou

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 9 years

Rasse: EKH Geschlecht: weiblich Geburtsdatum: April 2026 kastriert: Status: vollständig geimpft Verhalten: Die schwarz-weiße EKH-Kätzin Lou (geboren 04/2026) zeigt sich aktuell fremden Menschen gegenüber noch etwas schüchtern. In einer ruhigen Umgebung taut sie aber sicher bald auf. Für ihr neues Zuhause benötigt Lou nach der entsprechenden Eingewöhnung und Kastration die Möglichkeit zum Freigang. Da Kitten nicht alleine aufwachsen sollten, zieht sie zu einer bereits vorhandenen Jungkatze oder gemeinsam mit einem Spielgefährten um.

About Lou

What life with Lou looks like

Lou is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Günzburg in Günzburg.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lou, answered.

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