Jani

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Jani is a young, energetic, alert, playful, affectionate, vocal female cat who wants to be part of a family and has her own mind. She had a sister, but was quite dominant towards her. She needs space to expend her energy, such as a safe outdoor or indoor area with climbing and climbing opportunities. She is not used to being outside. A companion who can take a beating would also be good for her, although you never know in advance if there will be a good connection between the cats. We are looking for a spacious home with people who play with her a lot and give her exercise, and perhaps a fun playmate for her.

NL·Show original

Jani is een jonge dame, bewegelijk, aanwezig, alert, speels, aanhalig, vocaal, ze wil er bij horen, en heeft een mind of her own. Ze had een zusje maar daar was ze nogal dominant tegen. Ze heeft ruimte nodig zodat ze haar energie kwijt kan. Een veilig buiten of binnen waar klim- en klautermogelijkheden zijn. Ze is geen buiten gewend. Een maatje, die tegen een stootje kan, zou ook goed voor haar zijn. Al weet je nooit van tevoren of er een goede klik is tussen de katten. We zoeken een ruim thuis, bij mensen die veel met haar spelen en haar beweging geven en waar misschien een leuk speelmaatje voor haar is.

About Jani

What life with Jani looks like

Jani is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at De Poezenboot in Amsterdam.

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 Jani, answered.

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