Bink

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 6 months

Bink is a sweet, gentle little cat looking for a calm, patient family where she can continue to grow and develop. She was found together with her brothers and sisters and arrived at the shelter quite shy. She has since made great progress with her socialization and is now ready to move on to her own cozy basket. Bink needs plenty of time to settle in and does not simply approach strangers for cuddles; being picked up is still a step too far for her. When she gets to know you and trusts you, she comes to you more and more. She bonds closely with other cats, especially bolder ones, which gives her a good example to follow. That's why we gladly place her together with another kitten or with another social cat. Bink is curious and adventurous. New situations can still feel a little exciting to her, but she is becoming more and more comfortable being held. With lots of love, patience, and a quiet home, she will grow into a true cuddle cat. For Bink we are looking for a family that understands trust takes time. If you give her the chance to grow at her own pace, you will undoubtedly get a wonderful cat in return.

Bink is een lief en zachtaardig poesje die op zoek is naar een rustig en geduldig gezin waar ze zich verder mag ontwikkelen. Ze is gevonden samen met haar broers en zussen en kwamen vrij schuw in het asiel binnen, inmiddels heeft ze al grote stappen gemaakt met haar socialisatie en is ze er klaar voor om naar haar gouden mandje te vertrekken. Bink heeft wel veel tijd nodig om te wennen en stapt niet zomaar op vreemden mensen af om te kroelen, optillen is nog helemaal een stap te ver. Als ze je goed kent en vertrouwd komt ze steeds meer naar je toe. Ze trekt zich erg op met andere katten. Vooral als ze stoerder zijn dan zij geeft haar dat een goed voorbeeld. We plaatsen haar dan ook graag samen met een ander kitten of bij een andere sociale kat. Bink is nieuwsgierig en ondernemend. Ze vindt nieuwe situaties soms nog spannend, maar ze laat zich steeds beter aanhalen. Met veel liefde, geduld en een rustig thuis zal ze uitgroeien tot een echte kroelkat. Voor Bink zoeken we een gezin dat begrijpt dat vertrouwen tijd kost. Geef je haar de kans om op haar eigen tempo te groeien, dan krijg je er ongetwijfeld een geweldige kat voor terug.

About Bink

What life with Bink looks like

Bink is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem 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 — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇳🇱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 Bink, answered.

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