Adopt Marius

Mixed Breed · Female

This is Marius. Marius came as a bottle baby to the cat shelter and was lovingly bottle-fed there. He had been clinging to his bottle until recently, but now he is ready to eat independently. That's why the little guy, who is 12 weeks old, is now searching for his forever home. Marius is healthy, cuddly, and looks for a feline friend with whom he can play. He can also be visited in Dornstadt.

Das ist Marius. Marius kam als Flaschenkind zu Katzenhilfe und wurde dort liebevoll aufgepeppelt. Er hat bis vor kurzem auf seine Flasche bestanden, ist nun aber so weit das er auch selbständig frisst. Deswegen sucht der kleine Kerl mit seinen 12 Wochen nun sein Für-immer-Zuhause. Marius ist gesund verschmust und sucht einen Katzenkumpel, mit dem er spielen kann. Gerne kann er in Dornstadt besucht werden.

About Marius

What life with Marius looks like

Marius 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 Marius, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Marius?
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 Marius on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Marius 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 Marius 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 Marius 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 Marius 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.
