Amber

Scottish Fold · Female · Young · 3 years

Amber is a friendly lady who loves attention and prefers to be around you all day. She often seeks you out for a cuddle session and lets you know she's enjoying it with her cheerful meows and loud purrs. Amber is the ideal companion for someone looking for a housemate. Handsome Amber is a Scottish Fold; this breed has a cartilage abnormality visible in the folded ears, but not visible in the rest of the body. This hereditary condition can lead to painful, stiff joints, lameness, and difficulty with jumping/movement. It's important that Amber's new owner is well informed about the health risks of her breed. We are looking for a cozy household where someone is often at home, so she can enjoy all the attention. She can possibly be placed with children from 6 years old. Amber can be placed with a social companion, provided the introduction is handled calmly. We place Amber as an indoor cat, provided the living space is large enough and there is enough challenge indoors.

Amber is een vriendelijke dame die dol is op aandacht en het liefst de hele dag bij je in de buurt is. Ze zoekt je vaak op voor een knuffelsessie en laat met haar vrolijke miauwtjes en luid gespin duidelijk merken dat ze het fijn vindt. Amber is het ideale gezelschap voor wie een maatje zoekt om het huis mee te delen. Knappe Amber is een Scottish Fold; dit ras heeft een kraakbeenafwijking wat zichtbaar is door de vouwoortjes, maar onzichtbaar aanwezig is door het hele lichaam. Deze erfelijke aandoening kan leiden tot pijnlijke, stijve gewrichten, kreupelheid en moeite met springen/beweging. Het is belangrijk dat Amber’s nieuwe eigenaar zich goed informeert over de gezondheidsrisico’s van haar ras. Voor Amber zoeken wij een gezellig huishouden waar vaak iemand thuis is, zodat ze optimaal van alle aandacht kan genieten. Ze kan eventueel geplaatst worden bij kinderen vanaf 6 jaar oud. Amber kan bij een sociale soortgenoot geplaatst worden, mits de introductie rustig wordt aangepakt. We plaatsen Amber als binnenkat, mits de woonruimte groot genoeg is en er voldoende uitdaging binnenshuis aanwezig is. Ga terug

About Amber

What life with Amber looks like

Amber is a large young adult scottish fold cat waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem in Netherlands.

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 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 Amber, answered.

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