How do I contact the shelter about Lexi?

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

Can I adopt Lexi 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 Lexi 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 Lexi 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 Lexi 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.

Lexi

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Lexi, a European shorthair, was brought to our shelter by the animal ambulance while pregnant with her kittens. Lexi was a great mother and took good care of her kittens. We have found new homes for them, so now we are looking for a loving home for her. She is very affectionate and social with people. She loves adventure and the outdoors, so it is very important for her to be able to play in the garden. We think she would benefit from a predictable household. Would you like to meet Lexi? Please contact our shelter. Dierentehuis Zeist Woudenbergseweg 29 3711 AA Austerlitz T. 0259-79030 NL96 RABO 58t.n.v. Stichting Dierentehuis Zeist e.o.

About Lexi

What life with Lexi looks like

Lexi is a small young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Zeist in AA Austerlitz.

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.
