Ellis

Unknown · Young · 3 years

Hi, I'm Ellis, a tabby and white male cat. My estimated birth date is June 18, 2023. I was found wandering around and no one has claimed me yet, so now I'm looking for you. I like to explore first and if I trust the place, I can't stop purring. I need a connection with you, to be honest. I love lounging high on a scratching post or an empty bookshelf. Do you know what gets me really excited? Food! They say love goes through the stomach for humans, and I'm no different. I purr happily at all that yummy food. If I have to do something I don't want to do, I don't always cooperate well. But if you gain my trust, this will get better, we just need to get to know each other. Do you have a spot for me in your home with a full food cabinet? Email tav. Ellis

Hoi, Ik ben Ellis een cypers met witte kater, mijn geschatte geboortedatum is 18 juni 2023. Ik ben zwervend gevonden en niemand heeft zich voor mij gemeld, dus ben ik nu op zoek naar jou. Ik tast graag eerst de situatie wat af en als ik de boel vertrouw kan ik niet meer stoppen met kroelen. Ik moet wel een klik met je hebben als ik eerlijk ben. Ik lig graag hoog op een krabpaal of op een lege plank in de boekenkast. Weet je waar ik heel enthousiast van wordt? Lekker eten, bij jullie mensen zeggen ze ook de liefde van een man gaat door de maag. Ik verschil daarin niet met het menselijk geslacht. Ik mauw dan ook van plezier van al dat lekkers. Als ik iets moet doen wat ik niet wil, werk ik niet altijd goed mee. Maar als ik je steeds meer ga vertrouwen komt dit vast ook goed, we moeten mekaar tenslotte nog leren kennen. Heb jij voor mij een plekje in je huis met een goed gevuld voerkastje? Mail dan naar tav. Ellis

About Ellis

What life with Ellis looks like

Ellis is a 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 Ellis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ellis?
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 Ellis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ellis 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 Ellis 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 Ellis 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 Ellis 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.
