Zeus

European Shorthair · Male

Zeus came to us as a found animal. He is very people-oriented and loves cuddling. Since he becomes very jealous when it comes to petting, we would like to place him as an only cat. Zeus is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped; unfortunately, we don't know his exact age. After an adjustment period, he’ll need his usual access to the outdoors again. Who would like to give him a chance? Who would like to offer him a new home?

DE·Show original

Zeus kam als Fundtier zu uns. Er ist sehr menschenbezogen und verschmust. Da er sehr eifersüchtig wird, wenn es um die Streicheleinheiten geht, würden wir ihn als Einzelkatze vermitteln. Zeus ist kastriert, geimpft und gechipt, sein Alter ist uns leider nicht bekann. Nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit braucht er wieder seine gewohnte Freigangmöglichkeit. Wer möchte ihm eine Chance geben? Wer möchte ihm ein neues Zuhause geben?

About Zeus

What life with Zeus looks like

Zeus is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Ulm 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 Zeus, answered.

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