Yumi

Unknown · Kitten · 7 months

Yumi is a super cute Samtpfote who came to us as a found animal. Our beauty is initially a bit skeptical of strangers, she needs to get to know her humans first. But then Yumi can't get enough cuddles and playtime :-) Like almost all young cats, Yumi has a lively and curious nature, she needs a feline friend of about the same age to be happy, with whom she can cuddle and play. We think our sweetie will be happy in a spacious apartment with enough to do and climbing opportunities, a netted balcony is welcome. We will have Yumi spayed soon. We have estimated her age.

DE·Show original

Yumi ist eine super niedliche Samtpfote, die als Fundtier zu uns kam. Fremden gegenüber zeigt sich unsere Schöne anfangs etwas skeptisch, sie muss ihre Menschen erst kennen lernen. Dann aber kann Yumi nicht genug Schmuse- und Spieleinheiten bekommen. 🙂 Wie fast alle jungen Katzen hat Yumi ein lebhaftes und neugieriges Wesen, sie benötigt zum Glücklichsein unbeding eine etwa gleichaltrige Katzenfreundin, mit der sie kuscheln und toben kann. Wir denken dass unsere Süße bei ausreichender Beschäftigung und Klettermöglichkeiten in einer geräumigen Wohnung zufrieden ist, ein eingenetzter Balkon darf gerne dort vorhanden sein. Wir werden Yumi noch zeitnah kastrieren lassen. Ihr Alter haben wir geschätzt.

About Yumi

What life with Yumi looks like

Yumi is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Tierheim Bocholt in Bocholt.

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 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 Yumi, answered.

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