Bert

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Hello everyone, my name is Bert. I am a very sweet and cuddly tomcat about 1 year old and I am looking for a forever home. I like to roam around indoors and maybe enjoy the sun in a screened-in garden or balcony. Given my behavior here at the shelter, they assume I can also get along with children, but this will always be checked during an introduction. As I mentioned earlier, I love cuddling so much that I sometimes just drool from it! I can also talk very well, which I do when I want attention. In my current room, I get along very well with Aspen. Adopting us together is also a possibility. Do you think you can give me a good home? Then contact the shelter via the button on the website.

Hallo iedereen, mijn naam is Bert. Ik ben een ontzettend lieve en knuffelige kater van ongeveer 1 jaar oud en mag naar een eigen huisje toe. Ik zoek een plek waar ik lekker binnen kan rondstruinen en misschien in een afgeschermde tuin of balkon kan genieten van de zon. Gezien mijn gedrag hier in het asiel gaan ze er wel vanuit dat ik ook met kinderen kan, maar dit zal ten alle tijden goed gecontroleerd worden bij een kennismaking. Zoals ik al eerder vertelde hou ik ontzettend veel van knuffelen, zo erg dat ik er soms gewoon van ga kwijlen! Ik kan ook heel goed praten, dit doe ik dan ook als ik aandacht wil krijgen. In mijn huidige kamer zit ik met andere katten en kan ik het heel goed vinden met Aspen. Ons samen adopteren is dan ook een mogelijkheid. Denkt u mij een goed huisje te kunnen geven? Neem dan contact op met het asiel via de knop op de website.

About Bert

What life with Bert looks like

Bert is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenasiel 't Julialaantje in Rijswijk.

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 Bert, answered.

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