Zippy

European Shorthair Β· Male Β· Kitten Β· 3 months

Ik ben een zwart-wit kitten en mijn leven op straat heeft ervoor gezorgd dat ik mensen nog best spannend vind. Ik moet nog leren dat mensen lief zijn en dat ik veilig ben. Daarom ben ik op zoek naar iemand met een groot hart, heel veel geduld en begrip voor mijn kleine, bange hartje. Vertrouwen krijgen gaat bij mij niet vanzelf. Ik heb de tijd nodig om op mijn eigen tempo te ontdekken dat ik jou kan vertrouwen. Met rust, liefde en geduld hoop ik stapje voor stapje steeds een beetje dapperder te worden. Een ander lief katje in huis zou mij enorm kunnen helpen. Van een sociale kattenvriend kan ik veel leren en misschien durf ik daardoor steeds meer. Je mag mij daarom adopteren als er al een jonge, sociale kat bij jou woont, maar je kunt er ook voor kiezen om samen met mij een tweede kitten te adopteren. Wie geeft mij de kans om te ontdekken hoe fijn het leven in een liefdevol thuis kan zijn? Ik hoef niet meteen een knuffelkont te worden. Ik zoek vooral iemand die mij de tijd geeft om op mijn eigen pootjes te staan en mij laat zien dat ik er helemaal bij hoor. Misschien ben jij wel degene bij wie ik eindelijk mijn vertrouwen terugvind. Wil jij mij een huisje bieden? Vul dan hieronder het intake formulier in, dan kan er snel een eerste ontmoeting ingepland worden. Voor je een kat in huis haalt zijn wij benieuwd of je weet wat er allemaal bij komt kijken. Lees je in door middel van deze LICG huisdierenbijsluiter. Heb je daarna nog vragen? Wij beantwoorden ze graag.

About Zippy

What life with Zippy looks like

Zippy is a medium-sized kitten european shorthair cat waiting at ROZE Eindhoven in Netherlands.

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 β€” most shelters arrange this before adoption.

πŸ‡³πŸ‡±Adopting from Netherlands

Dutch shelters typically require a household assessment and an adoption contract. Animals are routinely sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement.

Frequently asked

Adopting Zippy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Zippy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ROZE Eindhoven handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Zippy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Zippy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” ROZE Eindhoven 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 Zippy 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Zippy isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ROZE Eindhoven early rather than rehoming privately; they know Zippy 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 (NL). Translation is imperfect β€” 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.
