Bitsie

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Bitsie is a male cat, born on September 5, 2021. He is a huge sweetheart to people and gets along well with some female cats. Unfortunately, he didn't click with the female cats of the neighbors where he was living and it came to serious fights, so the owners had no choice but to find him a new home. Bitsie is very good with people. He also really likes children. We would like to see him placed in a family where he gets a lot of love and attention and where he can also go outside because he really needs that. He needs space and therefore prefers not to be in an environment where there are many female cats from the neighborhood.

Bitsie is een kater, geboren op 5 september 2021. Hij is een enorme schat naar mensen toe en met sommige poezen kan hij het ook prima vinden. Helaas klikte het niet met de poezen van de buren waar hij nu woonde en kwam het tot serieuze gevechten waardoor de eigenaars niet anders konden dan voor hem een andere thuis te zoeken. Bitsie is heel goed met mensen. Ook kinderen ziet hij heel graag. Het liefst zien we hem geplaatst in een gezin waar hij veel liefde en aandacht krijgt en waar hij ook buiten kan want dat heeft hij ook echt wel nodig. Hij heeft ruimte nodig en vertoeft dus liefst niet in een omgeving waar veel buurtpoezen lopen.

About Bitsie

What life with Bitsie looks like

Bitsie is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Het Dierenthuisje VZW in Geel.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bitsie, answered.

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