Mixed Breed Cat ยท Male ยท Young ยท 3 years

๐Ÿพ GUSTAPH is looking for a warm home ๐Ÿพ Meet GUSTAPH, a sweet and gentle cat who was found as a stray at our shelter. Despite his difficult start, he has never lost his trust in people. On the contrary: GUSTAPH greatly enjoys human company and seeks the closeness of his caregivers. A quiet petting moment or simply being in the same space makes him incredibly happy. GUSTAPH unfortunately has feline leukemia (FeLV). That's why it's important that he does not go outside and has no contact with other cats. So, he is looking for a safe indoor environment where he can have all the attention and love for himself. Are you looking for a soft, affectionate friend who will greet you every day with his warm presence? Then GUSTAPH might just be your perfect housemate. If interested, please fill out a form:

๐Ÿพ Gustaph zoekt een warme thuis ๐Ÿพ Maak kennis met Gustaph, een lieve en zachtaardige kater die als vondeling bij ons is binnengekomen. Ondanks zijn moeilijke start heeft hij zijn vertrouwen in mensen nooit verloren. Integendeel: Gustaph geniet enorm van menselijk gezelschap en zoekt graag de nabijheid van zijn verzorgers. Een rustig knuffelmoment of gewoon samen in dezelfde ruimte zijn, maakt hem helemaal gelukkig. Gustaph heeft helaas feliene leukose (FeLV). Daarom is het belangrijk dat hij niet naar buiten gaat en geen contact heeft met andere katten. Hij zoekt dus een veilige binnenomgeving waar hij alle aandacht en liefde voor zichzelf mag hebben. Ben jij op zoek naar een zachte, aanhankelijke vriend die je elke dag zal begroeten met zijn warme aanwezigheid? Dan zou Gustaph wel eens jouw perfecte huisgenoot kunnen zijn.

About GUSTAPH

What life with GUSTAPH looks like

GUSTAPH is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Dierenasiel De Knuffelpootjes in Menen.

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 โ€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ชAdopting from Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting GUSTAPH, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about GUSTAPH?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenasiel De Knuffelpootjes handles screening and the adoption contract directly โ€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw GUSTAPH on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt GUSTAPH if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad โ€” Dierenasiel De Knuffelpootjes 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 โ‚ฌ100โ€“โ‚ฌ350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is GUSTAPH 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 โ€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if GUSTAPH isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work โ€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Dierenasiel De Knuffelpootjes early rather than rehoming privately; they know GUSTAPH 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 โ€” 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.
