How do I contact the shelter about Bonny?

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

Can I adopt Bonny if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenhulpverlening Woerden 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 Bonny 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 Bonny 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 Dierenhulpverlening Woerden early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bonny 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.

Adopt Bonny

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Kitten Bonny could no longer stay in his little house because his human emigrated, and Bonny unfortunately couldn't go. He came to the animal shelter, and we are looking for a new, cozy home for this five-year-old boy. Would he come to live with you? This is Bonny. If you ask Bonny if he wants to come play outside, there's a good chance this handsome fellow will answer with a resounding "yes." This darling with his beautiful light green eyes loves to take in the fresh air. He is a friendly and loving kitten with a gentle disposition. Bonny can also greatly enjoy attention and a pat. And he can give strong, solid headbutts! This handsome guy finds it all rather exciting. He is a bit shy and misses trust. But if you approach him calmly, he will love being thoroughly petted. However, he is still quite alert and likes to be on a high position so he can see everything. We think that with a bit of patience and love, Bonny will gain more trust and relax. It might just be that he becomes a cozy, affectionate housemate. And if he wants to, he finds playing also heartily fun, preferably with a feather wand. Then he is really enthusiastic! To know about Bonny, because Bonny finds everything a bit exciting, he is supported with the natural supplement Zylkene. It is advised to continue this in his new home to make the transition a bit easier, and to gradually reduce it after a few months. What kind of home is he looking for? For Bonny, we are looking for a house with a garden so that, once he is fully settled, he can enjoy being outside. He is looking for people who accept him as he is and who are at home regularly to give him plenty of attention. We would like to see him in a quiet household, and we think that children would be too busy for him. Although Bonny is not unfriendly to other cats, he will likely find a home for himself better. We do not place him with dogs. Are you curious about Bonny? Then contact our animal shelter to arrange a meet and greet.

Kater Bonny kon niet langer in zijn huisje blijven wonen omdat zijn mens emigreerde, en Bonny kon helaas niet mee. Hij kwam naar het asiel en wij gaan voor deze vijfjarige jongen op zoek naar een nieuw fijn mandje. Mag hij bij jou komen wonen? Dit is Bonny Als je vraagt of Bonny zin heeft om buiten te komen spelen, is de kans groot dat deze mooie man daar volmondig ja op miauwt. Deze lieverd met zijn prachtige lichte groene ogen vindt het namelijk heerlijk om een frisse neus te halen. Hij is een vriendelijke en lieve kater met een zachtaardig karakter. Bonny kan ook erg genieten van aandacht en een aaitje. En hij kan goede stevige kopjes geven! Deze knappe knul vindt het allemaal nog wel erg spannend. Hij is nog wat verlegen en mist vertrouwen. Maar als je hem rustig benadert, dan vindt hij het heerlijk om uitgebreid aangehaald te worden. Wel is hij nog erg alert en zit hij graag op een hoge positie zodat hij alles goed kan overzien. We denken dat Bonny met wat geduld en liefde meer vertrouwen zal krijgen en meer zal ontspannen. Het zou zomaar kunnen dat hij een gezellige, aanhankelijke huisgenoot gaat worden. En als hij zin heeft, vindt hij spelen ook hartstikke leuk, liefst met een verenstokje. Dan is hij lekker fanatiek! Goed om te weten over Bonny Omdat Bonny alles een beetje spannend vindt, wordt hij ondersteund met het natuurlijk supplement Zylkene. Het advies is om dit in zijn nieuwe huisje door te zetten om de overgang wat te vergemakkelijken, en na een paar maanden rustig af te bouwen. Wat voor huisje zoekt hij? Voor Bonny zijn we op zoek naar een huis met een tuin zodat hij, als hij helemaal gewend is, lekker naar buiten kan. Hij zoekt mensen die hem accepteren zoals hij is en die regelmatig thuis zijn om hem lekker aandacht te geven. We zien hem het liefst in een rustig huishouden, en we denken dat kinderen te druk zijn voor hem. Hoewel Bonny niet onvriendelijk is tegen andere katten, zal hij een huis voor zichzelf waarschijnlijk fijner vinden. We plaatsen hem ook niet bij honden. Ben je nieuwsgierig naar Bonny, neem dan contact met ons asiel op om een kennismaking in te plannen.

About Bonny

What life with Bonny looks like

Bonny is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenhulpverlening Woerden in Harmelen.

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.
