Adopt Floortje

Old English Sheepdog · Female · Adult · 9 years

This is Floortje, a 9-year-old (25/05/2017) cat. She came to us at our shelter because the owner could no longer care for her due to personal circumstances. Floortje was very scared at first, but she has since turned into a huge lap cat. She might take some time to adjust to a new environment. Floortje is only used to being indoors and in the garden, coming from the previous owner. We are looking for a situation where she can go outside again. She is not used to other animals, so we are seeking a place where she will be the only household pet.

Dit is Floortje, een poes van 9 jaar (25/05/2017) . Ze is bij ons in de opvang gekomen omdat de eigenaar wegens persoonlijke omstandigheden helaas niet meer voor haar kon zorgen. Floortje was in het begin erg bang, maar intussen is ze ontpopt tot een enorme kroeldoos. Mogelijk dat ze zich in een nieuwe situatie wel eerst wel terug trekt. Vanuit de vorige eigenaar is Floortje alleen gewend om binnenshuis en in de tuin te komen. We zoeken voor haar een situatie waarin ze wel weer lekker naar buiten kan. Ze is geen andere dieren gewend, dus we zoeken een plekje waar ze het enigste huisdier zal zijn.

About Floortje

What life with Floortje looks like

Floortje is a adult old english sheepdog cat waiting at Dierenopvangcentrum Breda in Breda.

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 Floortje, answered.

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