Luna

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 4 years

Meet our sweet tortoiseshell cat! ❤️ This 5-year-old tortoiseshell cat is a very sweet lady who loves attention and enjoys being close to you. However, she doesn't really like the cat rooms as much... She doesn't get along with other cats. That's why she would love to find her own place where she can have all the attention to herself. 🥰 Our lady is used to going outside and she really enjoys it. She would love to have the opportunity to go outside and have her own adventures with her new owner. 🌿🐾 Who will give this sweet, beautiful cat her own home where she can be herself? A place without other cats, with lots of love, attention, and the freedom to go outside. ❤️ Come meet her? Maybe she's waiting for you! 🏡🐱

Een eigen plekje voor onze lieve schildpadpoes Maak kennis met deze prachtige schildpadpoes van 5 jaar oud! ❤️ Een ontzettend lieve dame die dol is op aandacht en maar wat graag lekker bij je in de buurt is. Toch is het verblijf in de kattenkamers niet helemaal haar favoriete plek… Andere katten vindt ze namelijk niet zo gezellig. Daarom zou ze het liefst zo snel mogelijk haar eigen plekje vinden, waar ze alle aandacht lekker voor zichzelf heeft. 🥰 Onze dame is gewend om lekker naar buiten te gaan en daar geniet ze enorm van. Bij haar nieuwe baasje zou ze dan ook heel graag weer de mogelijkheid krijgen om naar buiten te gaan en haar eigen avonturen te beleven. 🌿🐾 Wie geeft deze lieve, mooie poes een eigen thuis waar ze helemaal zichzelf mag zijn? Een plekje zonder andere katten, met veel liefde, aandacht én de vrijheid om lekker naar buiten te gaan. ❤️ Kom jij haar ontmoeten? Misschien wacht ze wel op jou! 🏡🐱

About Luna

What life with Luna looks like

Luna is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Stichting Dierentehuis Vijfheerenlanden in LC Leerdam.

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 Luna, answered.

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