About Katerina

What life with Katerina looks like

Katerina is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvang de Wissel in Tilburg.

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 Katerina, answered.

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