How do I contact the shelter about Cheerio?

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

Can I adopt Cheerio if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Mirtos Animal Project 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 Cheerio 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 Cheerio 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 Mirtos Animal Project early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cheerio 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.

Cheerio

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten

This is Cheerio! Cheerio meowed extremely loudly outside a volunteer's house and from a car engine. He was very scared and cautious, and it took a while before they managed to catch him and bring him to safety. He needed a bath because he was completely gray from the motor dust. After that tough day, Cheerio has made new cat friends and is learning to trust people. Cheerio is cautious with people and loves his cat friends. He loves domestic life and likes to relax in comfortable spaces and scratching posts; he loves food and comfort and wants to feel safe. He is social with cats and needs a cat lover who gives him time to relax and gain trust. An experienced cat lover will help him flourish, and once he is in the hands of people, he loves cuddling. Before that time, he avoids being touched. He doesn't bother others; he is discreet and nice to his cat friends. Cheerio is placed only as an indoor cat. Cheerio is vaccinated. All our kittens are placed only in a house where another cat is already present, or as a duo!

Dit is Cheerio! Cheerio miauwde ontzettend hard buiten het huis van een vrijwilliger en vanuit een automotor. Hij was erg bang en voorzichtig, en het duurde even voordat ze hem te pakken kregen en in veiligheid konden brengen. Hij moest in bad, want hij was helemaal grijs van het motorstof. Na die zware dag heeft Cheerio nieuwe kattenvriendjes gemaakt en leert hij mensen te vertrouwen. Cheerio is voorzichtig met mensen en is dol op zijn kattenvrienden. Hij houdt van het huiselijke leven en ontspant graag in comfortabele ruimtes en krabpalen; hij is gek op eten en comfort en wil zich veilig voelen. Hij is sociaal met katten en heeft een kattenliefhebber nodig die hem de tijd geeft om te ontspannen en vertrouwen te winnen. Een ervaren kattenliefhebber zal hem helpen opbloeien, en als hij eenmaal in de handen van mensen is, houdt hij van knuffelen. Voor die tijd vermijdt hij aangeraakt te worden. Hij bemoeit zich niet met anderen; hij is discreet en aardig voor zijn kattenvrienden. Cheerio wordt alleen als binnenkat geplaatst. Cheerio is gevaccineerd. Al onze kittens worden uitsluitend in een huisje geplaatst waar al een andere kat aanwezig is, of als duo!

About Cheerio

What life with Cheerio looks like

Cheerio is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Mirtos Animal Project 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.
