How do I contact the shelter about Ellie?

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

Can I adopt Ellie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst 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 Ellie 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 Ellie 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 Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ellie 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.

Ellie

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten

Ellie is a sweet 12-week-old female kitten looking for her forever home! 💛 She's a bit of a unique story - she was found alone and her tail was amputated due to an injury. Now she's pain-free and loves to cuddle! She's a bit of a loner and doesn't like other animals, but loves people and following them around. She's a playful kitten who loves to play with toys like a ball or a feather toy. She's looking for a home with no other pets and someone who is home a lot. She's ready to go on August 16th!

Even kennismaken Naam: Ellie Geboortedatum: 01.05.2026 Geslacht: Kattin Kinderen: Kan zeker, mits respectvolle omgang. Andere katten: Nee Andere dieren: Nee Buiten: Kan Zindelijk: Ja. Meet Ellie Miauw! Ik ben Ellie, een lief meisje van ongeveer 12 weekjes oud en ik zoek mijn gouden mandje!💛 Ik vertel je graag meer over mij! Ik ben jammer genoeg helemaal alleen gevonden, al snel zag mijn opvangmama dat er iets mis was met mijn staartje, ik had pijn en mijn staartje zag er niet gezond uit, ik ben meteen gecontroleerd door de dierenarts en helaas hebben ze mijn staartje voor een groot deel moeten amputeren. Gelukkig ben ik nu helemaal pijnvrij en lijk ik een beetje op een konijntje Toen ik helemaal genezen was dacht mijn opvangmama dat ik een vriendje wel leuk ging vinden, helaas heb ik echt niet graag andere diertjes dus was dit geen match. Het liefst ben ik dus het enige katje, mensen vind ik wel superleuk! Het liefst volg ik je de hele dag, knuffelen vind ik ook echt geweldig! Soms ga ik even op mijn gemakje uitrusten, dit kan op je schoot zijn maar ook alleen op de krabpaal. Ook speel ik nog graag, met een hengeltje, balletjes maak je me zeker blij! Mijn favoriete speelgoed is toch wel echt een tunnel! Hier cross ik graag enkele keren door. Ik zoek dus een huisje waar geen diertjes aanwezig zijn maar wel met iemand die veel thuis is zodat ik niet teveel alleen ben. Ben jij mijn perfecte match? Neem dan zeker contact op! Pootje van Ellie🐾 Ps. Ik mag vertrekken naar mijn gouden mandje vanaf 16/08/2026 Soort dier: Kat Geslacht: Vrouwelijk Leeftijd: 01.05.2026

About Ellie

What life with Ellie looks like

Ellie is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst in Belgium.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.
