Fiona

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Fiona was found dragging her hind legs. Fortunately she can walk again now, but her hind legs rub against each other. She can climb and scramble as well as the best of them, but jumping is not something she does. Fiona is a sweet, spirited little lady of 6 years old and a cuddle bug once you have earned her trust. Because Fiona would not be able to fend for herself in the wild, we are looking for her a home with a secured garden, with calm, loving people who will give her all the love, space and time she needs to open up and win her trust. Fiona does not need any special treatment, but she does need a special place in your heart!

Fiona werd met slepende achterpootjes gevonden. Gelukkig kan ze nu weer lopen, maar haar achterpootjes wrijven langs elkaar heen. Ze kan klimmen en klauteren als de beste, echter springen doet ze niet. Fiona is een lief pittig dametje van 6 jaar oud en een knuffelkontje als je eenmaal haar vertrouwen hebt gewonnen. Omdat Fiona zich niet kan redden in de natuur zoeken we voor haar een huis met afgeschermde tuin bij rustige lieve mensen die haar alle liefde en ruimte / tijd geven, zich open te stellen en haar vertrouwen te winnen. Fiona heeft geen speciale behandeling nodig, maar een speciale plek in jouw/jullie hart!

About Fiona

What life with Fiona looks like

Fiona is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katshuisch 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 Fiona, answered.

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