Rocket und Groot

Mixed Breed · Male

The two kitten tearaways, Rocket und Groot, are two absolute treasures, even though they haven't had an easy life so far. Both arrived with us in a catastrophic condition with severe cat colds, so Rocket's right eye couldn't be saved and had to be removed. Groot was lucky; his eyes could still be saved. Both brothers are absolutely trusting with the people who know them. They love to snuggle, and especially Rocket loves to sleep on his foster mom's lap and needs a lot of closeness and love.

Die beiden Katzenteenies Rocket und Groot sind zwei absolute Goldstücke, obwohl sie es in ihrem bisherigen Leben nicht leicht hatten. Beide kamen in einem katastrophalen Zustand bei uns an mit schlimmem Katzenschnupfen, so dass das rechte Auge von Rocket nicht mehr gerettet werden konnte und entfernt werden musste. Groot hatte Glück, seine Augen konnten noch gerettet werden. Beide Brüder sind absolut zutraulich bei Menschen, die sie kennen. Sie lieben es zu kuscheln und besonders Rocket liebt es auf dem Schoß seiner Pflegemama zu schlafen und braucht ganz viel Nähe und Liebe. Da die beiden schon eine gescheiterte

About Rocket und Groot

What life with Rocket und Groot looks like

Rocket und Groot 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 Rocket und Groot, answered.

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