How do I contact the shelter about Beurnie?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Animals Faith handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Beurnie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Beurnie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Animals Faith 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 Beurnie 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 Beurnie 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 Stichting Animals Faith early rather than rehoming privately; they know Beurnie and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Beurnie

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Kater Beurnie grew up during the coronavirus pandemic. In those crucial early weeks, he had very little contact with people. As a result, he hasn’t been properly socialized. Beurnie received too little guidance and support as he matured into adulthood. He’s afraid of everything and everyone. He blows himself up with sheer intensity just to keep the caregivers at Anima’s Faith foundation at the right distance. And Beurnie also finds all the other cats in the group scary. He can’t make any friends—not yet. Poor Beurnie is starting to realize, though, that life here isn’t so bad after all. Sometimes he’ll even let a bowl of wet food be placed just 30 centimeters away from him—and then he stops blowing up (or at least, he doesn’t blow up anymore). For Beurnie, that’s already a step in the right direction. It’s clear, though, that this young tomcat still has a lot to learn before he can start enjoying his life. Beurnie needs an owner with angelic patience—and a safe haven where he can learn to trust at his own pace. Beurnie will be placed as an indoor cat. Breed: European Shorthair Gender: Male—neutered Date of birth: June 2021 Health check: Vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed Can live with children: No Can live with dogs: No Can live with cats: No If you can’t adopt Beurnie but would still like to support him, click here and become a sponsor now!

NL·Show original

Kater Beurnie is opgegroeid in de coronatijd. Heeft in die belangrijke jonge weken weinig contact gehad met mensen. Hij is niet goed gesocialiseerd. Beurnie heeft te weinig begeleiding gekregen tijdens zijn groei tot volwassenheid. Hij is bang voor alles en iedereen. Hij blaast zich helemaal suf om de verzorgers hier bij stichting Anima’s Faith op de juiste afstand te houden. En Beurnie vindt alle katten in de groep ook maar eng. Hij kan geen vriendjes maken, nog niet. Arme Beurnie begint wel door te krijgen dat het hier toch niet zo verkeerd is. Hij laat soms een bakje natvoer zomaar 30 cm van hem vandaan neerzetten. En dan blaast hij niet (meer)… Dat is voor Beurnie al een stap in de goede richting. Het is wel duidelijk dat deze jonge kater nog een heleboel moet leren om van zijn leven te gaan genieten. Beurnie heeft een baasje nodig met een engelengeduld. En een veilige haven waar hij op zijn eigen tempo kan gaan leren vertrouwen. Beurnie wordt geplaatst als binnenkat. Ras: Europese korthaar Geslacht: Kater – gecastreerd Geboortedatum: juni 2021 Keuring: Gevaccineerd, gechipt, ontwormd Kan bij kinderen: Nee Kan bij honden: Nee Kan bij katten: Nee Kan je Beurnie niet adopteren, maar wil je hem wel steunen?
