Gnocchi

Mixed Breed · Female

Gnocchi (Njokkie) is a large, grey, tabby with a red glow and a long tail. My caregivers say I'm very beautiful, but I think I'm even more beautiful on the inside, and that's what matters. I've been very busy lately with my 4 babies (Gompy/Gita/Gwen and Glyn). We were found together on a construction site, which wasn't very nice. My foster family is cozy, warm, and safe, which is what I'm looking for in my future home. I was a fantastic, caring mother (I even took care of an orphan) who loved all the attention for my babies, but I also want attention. I'm still very young! I love being petted under my chin, stroked, or brushed with a soft brush. Then I'll snuggle up close to you. It may take some time, I need to get used to new people and a new environment. Petting/brushing and eating have already made my dull coat shine a bit more. My caregivers say there's nothing wrong with me and that I'm very social. They talk to me a lot, which is nice. If I had been chipped, I would probably already be back with my old family. And a construction site isn't my choice. I'm looking for my own little house with people who give me attention (not all the time, I need time for myself too) and love. I enjoy being around people, I'll come to you, give you kisses, and if it gets too much, I'll just step away for a bit. Under a chair or something. The longer I stay with my foster family, the more I enjoy it and the more affectionate I become. Once you have my trust, I'm the sweetest housemate you could ask for. I think I'd like to be able to go outside, so a screened-in garden or safe environment would be nice. I don't know how I get along with other cats/dogs. Who would like to start this new adventure with me and give me a golden bed?

Hallo toekomstige baasjes/ personeel! Ik ben Gnocchi ( Njokkie) en ben op zoek naar een thuis! Ik ben een grote, grijze, cypers met een rode gloed en een lange staart. Ik ben erg mooi zeggen mijn verzorgers, dat zal, maar van binnen nog mooier en daar gaat het om. De afgelopen tijd ben ik erg druk geweest met mijn 4 baby’s. ( Gompy/Gita/Gwen en Glyn) We zijn samen gevonden op een bouwplaats, niet echt fijn. Bij ons gastgezin is het knus, warm en veilig. Dat zoek ik ook bij mijn toekomstige baasjes/ personeel. Ik was een fantastische, zorgzame moeder, (heb zelfs nog een weesje onder mijn hoede genomen) die alle aandacht prima vond voor mijn baby’s maar zelf wil ik ook graag aandacht. Ik ben tenslotte ook nog heel jong! Lekker kroelen onder mijn kin. Aaien of met een zachte borstel borstelen, heerlijk. Dan kom ik ook gezellig dicht bij je liggen. Kan even duren, ik moet natuurlijk wel weer wennen aan andere mensen en een andere omgeving. Door het aaien/borstelen én het eten, is mijn doffe vacht alweer wat meer gaan glanzen. Mijn verzorgers zeggen dat er geen kwaad in mij zit en dat ik heel sociaal ben. Ze praten veel tegen me en dat is prettig. Was ik gechipt, dan was ik waarschijnlijk alweer bij mijn oude huis geweest. En een bouwplaats is ook niet mijn keuze. Ik zoek een eigen huisje bij mensen met aandacht (niet de hele tijd natuurlijk, heb ook tijd voor mezelf nodig) en liefde. Ik vind het fijn om bij mensen te zijn, dan kom ik naar je toe, geef kopjes en als het te veel wordt, zonder ik me even af. Onder een stoel ofzo. Hoe langer ik bij mijn gastgezin ben, hoe fijner ik het vind en aanhaliger ik word. Als je mijn vertrouwen eenmaal hebt, ben ik de allerfijnste huisgenoot die je kan hebben. Ik denk dat ik het wel fijn vind om eens naar buiten te kunnen dus een afgeschermde tuin of veilige omgeving zou prettig zijn. Hoe ik met andere katten/ honden ben is onbekend. Wie zou met mij het nieuwe avontuur willen aangaan en mij een gouden mandje geven?

About Gnocchi

What life with Gnocchi looks like

Gnocchi is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Kat in Nood 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 Gnocchi, answered.

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