Luke

Male · Kitten · 5 months

Luke (geblodged), Hinki (getigert auf weiß) and Zemo (getigert) met at our shelter and hit it off right away. The three have mischief in their hearts and like most kittens, they are super curious and playful. It doesn't matter that Luke is two months older than his feline friends. Currently, our trio is a bit reserved when visitors enter their room, but they let us touch them and it won't be long before they are friendly towards others. We are looking for a caring home for our youngsters in a spacious apartment - with corresponding activity and climbing opportunities. Luke, Hinki and Zemo will be given away either as a trio, as a pair or to a similarly aged companion. All three must be spayed or neutered later, the spay/neuter deposit will be refunded upon proof of spay/neuter.

Luke (geblodged), Hinki (getigert auf weiß) und Zemo (getigert) haben sich bei uns im Tierheim kennen gelernt und sofort gut verstanden. Die drei haben den Schalk im Nacken und sind wie fast alle Kitten super neugierig und verspielt. Da spielt es keine Rolle, dass Luke zwei Monate älter ist als seine Katerfreunde. Momentan ist unser Trio noch etwas zurückhaltend, wenn Besucher ihr Zimmer betreten, von uns lassen sie sich aber schon anfassen und es wird nicht lange dauern, bis sie auch den anderen gegenüber zutraulich sind. Wir wünschen uns für unsere Jungspunte ein verständnisvolles Zuhause in geräumiger Wohnungshaltung - mit entsprechender Beschäftigung und Klettermöglichkeiten. Luke, Hinki und Zemo werden entweder als Trio, zu Zweit oder zu einem etwa gleichaltrigen Artgenossen abgegeben. Alle drei müssen später kastriert werden, die Kastrationskaution wird bei Kastrationsnachweis zurück erstattet.

About Luke

What life with Luke looks like

Luke is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Tierheim Bocholt in Bocholt.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Luke, answered.

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