Kobus

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Kobus zoekt een fijn thuis 🐾 Kobus is een kater van 2 jaar oud die al sinds mei bij ons wacht op een eigen thuis. Helaas is hij niet zo’n kat die meteen de aandacht trekt. Kobus is wat teruggetrokken en vindt veel dingen nog spannend. Daardoor lopen mensen hem gemakkelijk voorbij, terwijl hij ook zo graag een eigen plekje zou hebben. Als je rustig bij hem komt zitten, mag je hem wel aaien. Hij blijft dan lekker zitten, al vindt hij het allemaal nog best spannend. Kobus heeft iemand nodig die hem de tijd geeft om op zijn eigen tempo vertrouwen op te bouwen. Met wat geduld en rust kan hij steeds meer gaan ontspannen. Met andere katten kan Kobus goed overweg. Hij zou graag een huis hebben waar hij, als hij eenmaal gewend is, ook lekker naar buiten kan. Een druk gezin met kinderen is voor hem minder geschikt; een rustig huishouden past veel beter bij hem. Kobus wacht inmiddels al zo lang. Gun jij deze wat verlegen jongen de kans om eindelijk zijn eigen thuis te vinden

About Kobus

What life with Kobus looks like

Kobus is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierencentrum De Mère in Netherlands.

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 Kobus, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kobus?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierencentrum De Mère handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kobus on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kobus if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierencentrum De Mère 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Kobus 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 Kobus 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 Dierencentrum De Mère early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kobus 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.
