Timmy & Romka

Mixed Breed · Male

The two tomcats Timmy and Romka are unfortunately losing their home, as their owner had to go to a care facility. Timmy and Romka are two reserved, very shy tomcats who need time and patience to build trust. They are very attached to each other and should therefore only be rehomed together. Their future home should be quiet and stress-free – without children and ideally with cat-experienced companionship. With enough empathy and a secure retreat, the two have the chance to slowly thaw out and feel comfortable. The perfect home for the two would be: – A quiet household without children – People with patience and a heart for shy cats – Secure outdoor access in a quiet area – No dog household (optional, depending on the animals' experience)

DE·Show original

Die beiden Kater Timmy und Romka verlieren leider ihr Zuhause, da ihr Frauchen ins Pflegeheim musste. Timmy und Romka sind zwei zurückhaltende, sehr scheue Kater, die Zeit und Geduld brauchen, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Sie hängen sehr aneinander und sollen daher nur gemeinsam vermittelt werden. Ihr zukünftiges Zuhause sollte ruhig und stressfrei sein – ohne Kinder und idealerweise mit katzenerfahrener Begleitung. Mit genügend Einfühlungsvermögen und einem sicheren Rückzugsort haben die beiden die Chance, langsam aufzutauen und sich wohlzufühlen. Das perfekte Zuhause für die Zwei wäre: – Ruhiger Haushalt ohne Kinder – Menschen mit Geduld und Herz für scheue Katzen – Sicherer Freigang in verkehrsarmer Umgebung – Kein Hundehaushalt (optional, je nach Erfahrung der Tiere)

About Timmy & Romka

What life with Timmy & Romka looks like

Timmy & Romka is an 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Timmy & Romka, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Timmy & Romka?
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 Timmy & Romka on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Timmy & Romka 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Timmy & Romka 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 Timmy & Romka 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 Timmy & Romka 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.
