Adopt Luke

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Loving home for British Shorthair tomcat Luke sought 🐾 Gently, we seek a new, quiet home for our beautiful British Shorthair tomcat Luke. In our small apartment with two children, he unfortunately no longer finds the peace and retreat he needs. Therefore, we wish for him a loving, more tranquil home – ideally with little fuss – where he can settle in at his own pace and enjoy attention. About Luke: • 5.5 years old • British Shorthair (Silver Tabby) • neutered • Indoor cat only • house-trained • Eats both wet and dry food • Very quiet and clever • Easy to care for and uncomplicated • No registration/ancestry Luke loves to lie relaxed with his people and simply be there. He is no go-getter but a gentle observer who enjoys closeness and builds a close bond. He is a particularly relaxed, people-oriented companion. This decision is not easy for us. That is why it is so important to us that he comes to responsible and loving hands where he finds security and a lot of affection. If you would like to meet Luke and offer him a suitable home, we are very pleased to hear from you.

Liebevolles Zuhause für Britisch-Kurzhaar-Kater Luke gesucht 🐾 Schweren Herzens suchen wir für unseren wunderschönen Britisch-Kurzhaar-Kater Luke ein neues, ruhiges Zuhause. In unserer kleinen Wohnung mit zwei Kindern findet er leider nicht mehr die Ruhe und den Rückzugsort, den er braucht. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für ihn ein liebevolles, eher ruhiges Zuhause – idealerweise ohne viel Trubel – in dem er wieder ganz in seinem Tempo ankommen und die Aufmerksamkeit genießen darf. Über Luke: • 5,5 Jahre alt • Britisch Kurzhaar (Silver Tabby) • Kastriert • Reine Wohnungskatze • Stubenrein • Frisst Nass- und Trockenfutter • Sehr ruhig und klug • Pflegeleicht und unkompliziert • Kein Ausweis/Stammbaum Luke liebt es, entspannt bei seinen Menschen zu liegen und einfach dabei zu sein. Er ist kein Draufgänger, sondern ein sanfter Beobachter, der Nähe sehr genießt und eine enge Bindung aufbaut. Er ist ein besonders entspannter, menschenbezogener Begleiter. Diese Entscheidung fällt uns alles andere als leicht. Umso wichtiger ist uns, dass er in verantwortungsbewusste und liebevolle Hände kommt, wo er Sicherheit und ganz viel Zuneigung erfährt. Wenn Sie Luke kennenlernen möchten und ihm ein passendes Zuhause bieten können, freuen wir uns sehr über eine Nachricht. 🐱💛

About Luke

What life with Luke looks like

Luke 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 Luke, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Luke?
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 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 — 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 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 Katzenhilfe Ulm e.V. 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.
