Kirby en Kendra

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten · 3 months

European Shorthair, male and female Birthdate: 25-04-2026 Can with dogs: no Can with cats: with each other Can with small children: no Can with large children: yes Can in an apartment: no Can in a garden: yes This is the text we received from the shelter. Kirby (black and white) and Kendra (black with brown undercoat) are both big balls of fur. The big bad world is very exciting. They both like to curl up together unless they can play. That's what they are willing to do. They want to slowly discover the world and do it at their own pace. Kirby can sometimes show that she is very dangerous. Then she hisses when you try to pick her up (such a cute hiss that you melt from). Once she is against you, it's also very nice. Kendra is the timid girl of the pair. Everything is nice and sweet, but first she watches the cat from the tree before she dares to do something. They all like to eat and drink. Both croquettes and wet food. Deworming is easy. The ladies let the pill go in the back of the cup and Rio eats it out of his hand. In the evening they get the zoomies. They love to run, climb and climb. If they are really too busy, they go into the bench and fall asleep within a minute. It's very cute to see.

Ras: Europese korthaar. Geslacht: mannelijk en vrouwelijkGeboortedatum: 25-04-2026Kan met honden: jaKan met katten: met elkaarKan bij kleine kinderen: jaKan bij grote kinderen: jaKan in een appartement: neeKan in een tuin: jaDit is de tekst die we van het opvangadres ontvangen hebben. Kirby (zwart/wit) en Kendra(zwart met bruine ondervacht) zijn allebei 2 dikke bolletjes wol.De grote boze wereld is heel spannend. Beiden liggen het liefst opgekruld bij elkaar tenzij er gespeeld kan worden. Dat is namelijk wel waarvoor ze te porren zijn. Heel langzaam willen ze de wereld ontdekken en dit op hun eigen tempo mogen doen. Kirby kan af en toe laten zien dat ze heel gevaarlijk is. Dan blaast ze wanneer je haar wil pakken (zo’n schattig hisje waar je van smelt) maar eenmaal tegen je aan it dat ook wel erg lekker.. Kendra is de bange poeperd van het stel.. alles leuk lief en aardig maar eerst de kat uit de boom kijken voor ze iets durft. Eten en drinken doen ze alle 4 graag. Zowel brokjes als natvoer. Ontwormen is makkelijk. De dames laten de pil allemaal achterin het bakkie stoppen en Rio eet hem gewoon uit de hand.. In de avond krijgen ze even de zoomies.. lekker rennen, klimmen en klauteren.. als ze echt te druk blijven gaan ze in de bench en vallen ze binnen een minuut in slaap. Heel schattig om te zien.

About Kirby en Kendra

What life with Kirby en Kendra looks like

Kirby en Kendra is a small puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Zeist in AA Austerlitz.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kirby en Kendra, answered.

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