Dolly

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

This is Dolly, she was found and came to us highly pregnant. Just in time because the day after she gave birth to 6 beautiful kittens. In a foster home she was allowed to raise her children and had all the peace and love. It is now time for her to look for her golden bed! Dolly loves to cuddle and is a real cozy cat who likes to be everywhere with her nose. A family with children would be perfect for her. She wants to be able to go outside in a quiet environment in the future. Dolly is not suitable for people who work full-time, she finds all those people around her too friendly. Lovely to play together and then lounge on the couch.

Dit is Dolly, ze is gevonden en kwam hoog drachtig bij ons binnen. Net op tijd want de dag erna kreeg ze 6 mooie kittens. In een gastgezin mocht ze haar kinderen verder grootbrengen en had ze alle rust en liefde. Inmiddels is het voor haar tijd om op zoek te gaan naar haar gouden mandje! Dolly is gek op kroelen en is een echte gezellige kat die graag overal met haar neus bovenop zit. Een gezin met kinderen zou prima voor haar kunnen. Wel wil ze in de toekomst naar buiten toe kunnen in een rustige omgeving. Voor mensen die fulltime werken is Dolly niet geschikt, ze vind al die mensen om zich heen veel te gezellig. Lekker samen spelen en daarna bankhangen.

About Dolly

What life with Dolly looks like

Dolly is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem in Netherlands.

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 Dolly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dolly?
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 Dolly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dolly 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Dolly 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 Dolly 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 Dolly 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.
