Pierre und Claire

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

The two cuties were born in July 2023 and unfortunately fell ill with cat flu as small kittens. We were able to take them in and save them, but they do still have a bit of eye discharge. It doesn't hinder them in any way and really only represents an "optical limitation" for people (it's just not as pretty without the eye discharge). We hope, however, that they will still find a home that doesn't mind! For while I write these lines, Pierre has climbed onto my lap purring and his sister Claire came right behind. The two are inseparable and will therefore only be rehomed together. Pierre is the more courageous of the two and will let itself be stroked, but since Claire strongly relies on him, she also quickly comes to people on her own. Both are very playful and can turn anything into a toy. Claire, however, is particularly quick and agile. In between, they still always seek the closeness of their people and want to be scratched. The two have developed into real snuggle cats and love to take a midday nap snuggled up to their primary caregiver. Since Claire is still a bit afraid of quick movements, it would be good if their new home is a bit quieter. She is so grateful when she is stroked and rolls into the hand of the person and purrs in pure joy. The two are used to life outside and are already curious to look around, so after an adjustment period in their new home, they would also like to go out and explore a quieter neighborhood. Both are dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. Who would like to take this golden sibling duo in?. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

Die beiden Süßen wurden im Juli 2023 geboren und sind leider gleich als kleine Kätzchen an Katzenschnupfen erkrankt. Wir konnten sie zum Glück aufnehmen und retten, aber sie haben deshalb noch ein wenig Augenausfluss. Er behindert sie in keiner Weise und stellt eigentlich nur eine „optische Einschränkung“ für Menschen dar (ist einfach nicht so hübsch wie ohne Augenausfluss). Wir hoffen aber, dass sie trotzdem ein Zuhause finden, das sich nicht daran stört! Denn während ich diese Zeilen schreibe, ist Pierre schnurrend auf meinen Schoß geklettert und seine Schwester Claire kam gleich hinterher. Die beiden sind nämlich unzertrennlich und werden deshalb auch nur zusammen vermittelt. Pierre ist der Mutigere von beiden und lässt sich gleich streicheln, doch da sich Claire stark an ihm orientiert, traut sie sich dann auch schnell, von selbst zu Menschen zu kommen. Beide sind sehr verspielt und können begeistert alles in ein Spielzeug verwandeln. Dabei ist vor allem Claire schnell und flink. Zwischendurch suchen sie aber trotzdem immer wieder die Nähe ihrer Menschen und möchten gekrault werden. Die beiden haben sich zu richtigen Schmusekatzen entwickelt und lieben es, an ihre Bezugsperson gekuschelt Mittagsschlaf zu halten. Da Claire bei schnellen Bewegungen noch ängstlich ist, wäre es gut, wenn es in ihrem neuen Zuhause ruhiger zu geht. Dabei ist sie so dankbar, wenn sie gestreichelt wird und rollt sich dann in die Hand des Menschen und schnurrt ganz im Glück. Da die beiden das Leben draußen gewohnt sind und schon neugierig raus schauen, möchten sie nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit in ihrem neuen Zuhause auch gerne raus gehen können und eine verkehrsberuhigte Gegend erkunden können. Sie sind beide entwurmt, geimpft, gechipt und kastriert. Wer möchte dieses goldige Geschwister-Duo bei sich aufnehmen?

About Pierre und Claire

What life with Pierre und Claire looks like

Pierre und Claire is a young 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 Pierre und Claire, answered.

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