Lokum

British Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 5 months

Lokum and Boncuk are looking for a loving new home together. They want to stay together in the future and will therefore only be adopted together. Currently, Lokum and Boncuk are still struggling with their digestion and therefore need gastrointestinal bland food. Their future owners should be willing to continue to take this into account and keep a close eye on their development. Otherwise, the two are curious and lively cats who are now hoping for people with whom they can arrive together and enjoy their new home.

DE·Show original

Lokum und Boncuk suchen gemeinsam ein liebevolles neues Zuhause. Die beiden möchten auch in Zukunft zusammenbleiben und werden daher nur gemeinsam vermittelt. Aktuell haben Lokum und Boncuk noch etwas mit ihrer Verdauung zu kämpfen und benötigen deshalb Magen-Darm-Schonkost. Ihre zukünftigen Halter sollten bereit sein, darauf weiterhin Rücksicht zu nehmen und ihre Entwicklung gut im Auge zu behalten. Ansonsten sind die beiden neugierige und aufgeweckte Katzen, die nun auf Menschen hoffen, bei denen sie gemeinsam ankommen und ihr neues Zuhause genießen dürfen.

About Lokum

What life with Lokum looks like

Lokum is a puppy/kitten british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Linz in Linz.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lokum, answered.

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