Kleintje

Male · Young · 2 years

Meet Kleintje! Kleintje is a sweet, large red tomcat aged 2 years and 11 months. He enjoys attention, likes to be stroked and sometimes cuddled, and is friendly towards people and children from around 6 years old. Kleintje is looking for a nice home where he can receive all the love he deserves. He is more used to living indoors but we would like to give him the chance to discover the outside world as well. Therefore, we are looking for a house with an enclosed garden or cat run so that he can safely get used to outdoor life. Kleintje is currently on special kibble because in the past he has had bladder stones (possibly due to stress). Once he is settled with his new owners, he may be able to switch back to normal food. This will be done under the guidance of a veterinarian and a cat behaviorist from the shelter.

Maak kennis met Kleintje! Kleintje is een lieve grote rode kater van 2 jaar en 11 maanden oud. Hij geniet van aandacht, laat zich graag aaien en soms ook knuffelen en is vriendelijk naar mensen en kinderen vanaf ongeveer 6 jaar oud. Kleintje zoekt een fijn thuis waar hij alle liefde krijgt die hij verdient. Hij is meer gewend om binnen te leven, maar we gunnen hem graag de kans om ook de buitenwereld te ondekken. Daarom zoeken we een huis met een afgesloten tuin of een kattenren, zodat hij op een veilige manier kan wennen aan het buitenleven. Kleintje krijgt op dit moment speciale brokken, omdat hij in het verleden last heeft gehad van blaasgruis (mogelijk door stress). Als hij eenmaal gewend is bij zijn nieuwe eigenaren kan hij mogelijk weer op normale brokken over. Vanuit het asiel kan dit onder begeleiding van een dierenarts en een kattengedragsdeskundige.

About Kleintje

What life with Kleintje looks like

Kleintje is a young adult cat waiting at Dierenopvangcentrum Breda in Breda.

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 Kleintje, answered.

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