How do I contact the shelter about Indy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenasiel Utrecht handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Indy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Indy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenasiel Utrecht 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 Indy 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 Indy 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 Dierenasiel Utrecht early rather than rehoming privately; they know Indy 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.

Indy

Female · Kitten · 4 months

Indy is a calm, confident little girl who isn't easily impressed. She loves being around people and follows them around all day. She's happy wherever you are. ❤️ Indy is also a smart girl. She quickly figured out how to use the cat flap and now uses it every night because she loves sleeping in bed. 🥰 Indy also loves to eat. She loves anything tasty and can get quite enthusiastic when something really delicious appears. She's a lady who knows what she wants! It's noticeable that Indy isn't very interested in other kittens. She prefers the company of adult cats, especially calm males. That's why we think Indy would be happiest in a home with one or more calm, social cats. Dogs and children are no problem for Indy, so she could fit into different family situations. We're looking for a home where Indy can be herself: calm, smart, sociable and always happy to be around. A place on the bed would be a bonus. 😉🏡❤️

Let op! Indy verblijft in een pleeggezin en is dus niet op het asiel aanwezig. U kunt alleen telefonisch uw interesse kenbaar maken. Mailen of langskomen voor haar heeft geen zin! Indy is een rustig, zelfverzekerd poesje dat niet snel ergens van onder de indruk is. Ze vindt het vooral ontzettend gezellig om bij mensen in de buurt te zijn en loopt dan ook het liefst de hele dag achter je aan. Waar jij bent, is Indy eigenlijk ook graag. ❤️ Naast gezellig is Indy ook een slimme meid. Zo had ze binnen no-time door hoe het kattenluik werkt. Daar maakt ze inmiddels iedere avond dankbaar gebruik van, want slapen doet ze het allerliefst lekker op bed. 🥰 Eten is een andere grote liefde van Indy. Ze is dol op alles wat lekker is en zodra er iets écht lekkers tevoorschijn komt, kan ze behoorlijk fanatiek worden. Een dame die duidelijk weet wat ze wil! Opvallend is dat Indy zich minder aangetrokken voelt tot andere kittens. Ze zoekt juist graag het gezelschap op van volwassen katten, waarbij ze vooral goed aansluiting vindt bij rustige katers. Daarom denken we dat Indy het gelukkigst wordt in een huis waar al één of meerdere rustige, sociale katten wonen. Ook honden en kinderen zijn voor Indy geen probleem, waardoor ze in verschillende gezinssituaties zou kunnen passen. Voor Indy zoeken we vooral een fijn thuis waar ze lekker zichzelf mag zijn: rustig, slim, gezellig en altijd graag in de buurt. Een huis waar een plekje op bed voor haar vrij is, zou natuurlijk helemaal mooi meegenomen zijn. 😉🏡❤️

About Indy

What life with Indy looks like

Indy is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Dierenasiel Utrecht in Utrecht.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇳🇱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.
