Adopt Momo und Urmel

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 6 years

sought, and yet found, Momo und Urmel at our shelter. Now they are inseparable, like to lie together in the same den, and would be totally happy if they found a new home together. Momo was brought to Donzdorf as a found animal. During the veterinary examination, FIV was diagnosed in her. She had definitely not had any human contact, so she is very shy and hisses out of insecurity if she is discovered hidden under a blanket. Urmel shares a similar past and the same FIV diagnosis with Momo. For both animals, it would be almost like winning the lottery if a kind-hearted animal friend with a lot of understanding and patience gives them a new home together. We are looking for exactly this person who gives the frightened mites a chance.

gesucht, und doch gefunden, haben sich Momo und Urmel im Katzenschutz. Inzwischen sind sie unzertrennlich, liegen gerne gemeinsam in derselben Höhle und wären total glücklich, wenn sie zusammen ein neues Heim finden. Momo wurde als Fundtier nach Donzdorf gebracht. Bei der tierärztlichen Untersuchung wurde bei ihr FIV diagnostiziert. Sie hatte mit Sicherheit noch keinen menschlichen Kontakt, ist daher sehr scheu und faucht aus Unsicherheit, wenn man sie versteckt unter einer Decke entdeckt. Urmel teilt mit Momo eine ähnliche Vergangenheit und dieselbe Diagnose FIV. Für beide Tiere wäre es sicherlich fast mit einem Sechser im Lotto zu vergleichen, wenn ein Tierfreund mit einem sehr großen Herzen, viel Verständnis und Geduld beiden gemeinsam ein neues Zuhause schenkt. Wir suchen genau diesen Menschen, der den verängstigten Miezen eine Chance gibt.

About Momo und Urmel

What life with Momo und Urmel looks like

Momo und Urmel is a extra-large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Katzenschutz Göppingen-Donzdorf in Donzdorf.

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 Momo und Urmel, answered.

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