Ducky

Unknown · Young · 1 year

Poes Ducky (geschatte geboortedatum 6-11-2024) hebben we in april van dit jaar gevonden en wij verzorgen haar sindsdien met veel liefde en respect. Ze is behoorlijk bang. Dat laat ze duidelijk zien in haar houding.: “O hellup, wie ben jij? Kijk naar mijn grote ogen en platte oren. Stop. Kom. Niet. Dichterbij.” Komen we toch een stapje te dichtbij, dan geeft Ducky haar grens aan door flink te blazen en te slaan. Er zal nog enige tijd nodig zijn voor het socialiseren van Ducky. Het fijnste voor Ducky is dit in een rustige, stabiele omgeving zodat ze wat makkelijker het vertrouwen in mensen zal vinden. Een huisje met (kleine) kinderen en/of honden past daar niet bij. Wij denken dat het Ducky helpt wanneer er een andere kat-sociale kat aanwezig zal zijn. Een fijn kameraadje om van te leren en mee op te trekken. Wil jij Ducky een veilige plek bieden waar ze zichzelf kan zijn en haar helpen op eigen tempo verder te ontwikkelen? Mail dan naar o.v.v. Ducky.

About Ducky

What life with Ducky looks like

Ducky is a small young adult cat waiting at Hokazo in Uden.

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 Ducky, answered.

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