Domino

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

I have really, really huge trust issues. My therapist says it might be due to my fear of abandonment that I’m feeling a bit down and depressed right now. Actually, I should pay more attention to my inner child so that I can start trusting people again and break free from my old patterns. Or maybe try breathing exercises and meditation to reconnect with my healthy mantras. In short, I could definitely use some more therapy. So if you’re reading this, you’re a psychologist, and you’re thinking, “I’m up for this challenge,” then please fill out the form!

Ik heb echt enooooorme trust issues. Mijn psych zegt dat het wellicht door mijn verlatingsangst komt dat ik nu wat down en depri ben. Eigenlijk zou ik wat meer naar mijn innerlijke kind moeten kijken zodat ik mensen weer ga vertrouwen en mijn oude patronen kan doorbreken. Of ademhalingsoefeningen en meditatie om meer bij mijn gezonde mantra's te komen. Kortom, ik kan best nog wat therapie gebruiken. Dus lees je dit, ben je psycholoog en denk je, ik durf deze uitdaging aan te gaan, vul dan het formulier in!

About Domino

What life with Domino looks like

Domino is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at DOA Dierenasiel Amsterdam in Amsterdam.

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 Domino, answered.

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