Fientje

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Maak kennis met de lieve Fientje! Deze knappe poes is pas 1 jaar oud en op zoek naar een fijn, rustig thuis waar ze alle aandacht en liefde krijgt die ze verdient. Fientje is een lieve poes. Ze is afgestaan omdat het helaas niet goed ging met de andere kat in huis. Door de spanning in huis werd Fientje onzindelijk. Sinds ze bij ons in het asiel verblijft, is dit gelukkig helemaal geen probleem en doet ze netjes haar behoefte op de kattenbak. Fientje is een echte binnenkat en is niet gewend om buiten te komen. Een huis waar ze lekker binnen kan blijven past daarom prima bij haar. Wel zal ze het heerlijk vinden als ze af en toe veilig van de buitenlucht kan genieten, bijvoorbeeld op een balkon of in een goed afgezette tuin. Met wat oudere kinderen kan Fientje goed overweg. Omdat ze eerder moeite heeft gehad met een andere kat, zoeken we voor haar een plekje waar ze niet hoeft samen te wonen met een andere kat. Een rustig huishouden waar ze zichzelf kan zijn en volop aandacht krijgt, zou heel fijn voor haar zijn. Wie geeft deze lieve, jonge dame een warm thuis waar ze helemaal tot rust kan komen?

About Fientje

What life with Fientje looks like

Fientje is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem in Netherlands.

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 Fientje, answered.

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