Edin

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Edwin is still a bit shaken, we'll see how it goes. He has been home alone a lot and not used to much, so everything is exciting for him now. That will take time, patience and understanding. We are looking for a quiet home with people who have experience with cats. And even better, who have experience with sensitive cats and are therefore easily shaken.

NL·Show original

Edin is nog wat van slag, we kijken nog even aan hoe het verder gaat. Hij is thuis veel alleen geweest en niet veel gewend waardoor van alles nu spannend voor hem is. Dat zal tijd kosten, geduld en begrip. We zoeken een rustig thuis bij mensen die ervaring hebben met katten. En nog beter die ervaring hebben met katten die gevoelig zijn en dus snel van slag.

About Edin

What life with Edin looks like

Edin is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at De Poezenboot 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 Edin, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Edin?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. De Poezenboot handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Edin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Edin if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — De Poezenboot 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Edin 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 Edin 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 De Poezenboot early rather than rehoming privately; they know Edin 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.
