Boef

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Unfortunately, Boef has been returned to us once again. Therefore, we are once again looking for a new home for her. Boef is a spayed female cat who is just over 6 years old and was brought to our shelter because she became less happy at home after the children arrived. Boef is a cat with a strong personality. She likes to go her own way. She doesn't enjoy being picked up, but she does like to be around people. She also loves to sniff at you. Sometimes Boef dares to bite—this is also the reason why she was unfortunately returned after her previous placement. We are looking for a calm new home for Boef, one without young children and without other pets, as she doesn't get along well with them. Ideally, she would also have the opportunity to go outside freely—a place where she can do her own thing and where not too much is expected of her.

Helaas is Boef weer teruggebracht. Daarom zijn we weer op zoek naar een nieuw thuis voor haar. Boef is een gesteriliseerde poes van ruim 6 jaar oud en is naar ons asiel gebracht omdat ze na de komst van de kinderen niet meer zo gelukkig was in huis. Boef is een kat met karakter. Ze gaat graag haar eigen gang. Ze houdt er niet van om aangehaald te worden maar vindt het wel gezellig om in de buurt te zijn. Ook snuffelt ze graag aan je. Soms durft Boef te bijten, dat is ook de reden dat ze helaas weer teruggebracht is na haar plaatsing. We zoeken voor Boef een rustig nieuw thuis zonder jonge kinderen en zonder andere huisdieren, daar houdt ze niet van. Ook zou ze graag de mogelijkheid hebben om lekker naar buiten te gaan. Een plekje waar ze haar eigen gang mag gaan en waar er niet teveel van haar wordt verwacht. Dierenasiel de BevelandenWesthavendijk 1404463 AE GOES

About Boef

What life with Boef looks like

Boef is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenasiel De Bevelanden in AE Goes.

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 Boef, answered.

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