Lucy (nur mit Thomas)

British Shorthair · Female

Lucy and Thomas have had little joy in their lives so far. They were exploited for kitten production and were finally rescued from this situation. Now, a completely new chapter of their lives is about to begin—a chapter filled with warmth, security, and love. Despite their past, Lucy and Thomas have retained their friendly and cheerful nature. Both are open-minded, cuddly, and thoroughly enjoy the attention they receive from their humans. Every day, they show anew just how eager they are to finally experience life from its beautiful side. We’re looking for a loving home for this adorable duo, one that offers apartment living—where they’ll never again be seen merely as a means to an end, but rather as cherished family members.

About Lucy (nur mit Thomas)

What life with Lucy (nur mit Thomas) looks like

Lucy (nur mit Thomas) is a medium-sized adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Herne-Wanne in Herne.

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 Lucy (nur mit Thomas), answered.

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