Mona

European Shorthair · Female

Mona came to us as a stray. She is a very friendly and cuddly cat, but only with people; fortunately, she doesn't need other cats to be happy. Mona is vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. After an adjustment period, she needs a chance to go for a walk. Who has a spare spot? Who would like to give her a new home?

Mona kam als Fundtier zu uns. Sie ist eine sehr freundliche und verschmuste Katze. Jedoch nur zu Menschen, andere Katzen braucht sie nicht zum Glücklichsein. Mona ist geimpft, gechipt und kastriert. Nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit braucht sie eine Freigangmöglichkeit. Wer hat ein Plätzchen frei? Wer möchte ihr ein neues Zuhause geben?

About Mona

What life with Mona looks like

Mona is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Ulm 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 Mona, answered.

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