How do I contact the shelter about Jazzy?

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 Jazzy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Jazzy 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 Jazzy 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 Jazzy 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 Jazzy 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.

Jazzy

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 8 years

Jazzy's previous owner could no longer properly care for her, so it was decided to bring her to us. For Jazzy, that is really getting used to. She looks from her hiding house with big eyes at the other cats and the people around her. She has probably never realized that the world is so big! However, we notice that when we approach her very calmly, she relaxes a bit and likes to receive our attention. Jazzy lived with her previous owner always indoors and she seems to be little used to it. We are therefore looking for a place for her where she gets a lot of time to get used to, where no other animals live or come, and where peace and quiet reign. And where 1 or 2 people live with some experience with cats, who approach her carefully and gently, and to whom she can really reconnect. She is only 8 years old and will hopefully have many more beautiful years to spend with her new owner(s). Do you see music in Jazzy? And do you have a quiet home for her? Then Jazzy would like to get to know you!

Jazzy’s vorige baasje kon niet meer goed voor haar zorgen en zodoende werd besloten haar bij ons te brengen. Voor Jazzy is dat wel echt even wennen. Ze kijkt vanuit haar schuilhuisje met grote ogen naar de andere katten en de mensen om zich heen. Ze heeft zich waarschijnlijk nooit gerealiseerd dat de wereld zo groot is! Toch merken we dat als we haar heel rustig benaderen, ze al wat ontspant en graag onze aandacht ontvangt. Jazzy woonde bij haar vorige eigenaar altijd binnen en ze lijkt maar weinig gewend. We zoeken voor haar dan ook een plek waar ze veel tijd krijgt om te wennen, waar geen andere dieren wonen of komen, en waar rust en vrede heerst. En waar 1 of 2 mensen wonen met wat ervaring met katten, die haar voorzichtig en zacht benaderen, en aan wie ze zich echt weer kan verbinden. Ze is nog maar 8 jaar oud en heeft hopelijk nog veel mooie jaren door te brengen met haar nieuwe baasje(s). Ziet u wel muziek in Jazzy? En heeft u een rustig huis voor haar? Dan wil Jazzy graag met u kennismaken!

About Jazzy

What life with Jazzy looks like

Jazzy is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierenasiel Utrecht in Utrecht.

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.
