Austin

Mixed Breed Β· Male Β· Kitten Β· 4 months

Austin is a funny, adventurous, playful and happy little boy, 11 weeks old. This sweetheart is looking for loving people to call his family! Austin came to us when he was about 3 weeks old, together with his mother and brothers. They were found and fortunately taken off the streets and brought to us. They were warmly welcomed by a lovely foster mother, where they have since become accustomed to everything. Austin is a funny little boy, he is very social with other cats, is very playful, likes to discover new things and enjoys all the attention in his foster family. He doesn't always have time to cuddle with you and just walks away from you. He has other 'important' things to do. Austin is still young enough to get used to living with a dog and he wouldn't mind sharing his life with older children. We are looking for loving people for Austin who can offer him a wonderful future, who can give him a lot of attention, who will play with him and who already have a cat or possibly want to adopt a kitten with him. You are welcome to come and meet Austin in person. He would be happy to introduce himself to you!

Austin; een grappig, ondernemend, speels en vrolijk kereltje van 11 weken jong. En deze leukerd is op zoek naar lieve mensen die hij zijn familie mag gaan noemen! Austin kwam bij ons toen hij een week of 3 was, samen met zijn moeder en broertjes. Zij waren gevonden en gelukkig van straat gehaald en bij ons gebracht. Al snel waren zij van harte welkom bij een lieve pleegmoeder, waar zij inmiddels aan alles gewend zijn. Austin is een grappig mannetje, hij is heel sociaal met andere katten, is heel speels, mag graag nieuwe dingen ontdekken en geniet van alle aandacht in zijn pleeggezin. Hij heeft niet altijd tijd om met je te knuffelen en loopt dan gewoon bij je weg. Hij heeft dan andere β€˜belangrijke' dingen te doen. Austin is nog jong genoeg om te wennen aan een leven samen met een hond en hij zou het ook geen probleem vinden om zijn leven te delen met wat oudere kinderen. Voor Austin zoeken wij lieve mensen die hem een heerlijke toekomst kunnen bieden, die hem veel aandacht kunnen geven, die heerlijk met hem gaan spelen en die al een kat hebben of eventueel samen met hem nog een kitten willen adopteren. U bent van harte welkom om Austin in levende lijve te komen ontmoeten. Dan stelt hij zichzelf graag aan u voor!

About Austin

What life with Austin looks like

Austin is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvang Koningen 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 Austin, answered.

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