Maxy

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Maxy is a large calm cat who walks around making contented noises. He is loving and sociable and wants attention. His fur can be brushed occasionally. So we are looking for a cozy home where he feels completely at home. Maxy is not used to gardens, children, or dogs.

NL·Show original

Maxy is een grote rustige kater loopt knorren heen en weer. Hij is lief en gezellig aanwezig en wil graag aandacht. Zijn vachtje mag wel af en toe geborsteld worden. We zoeken dus een gezellig thuis waar hij er helemaal bij hoort. Maxy is geen tuin, kinderen en honden gewend.

About Maxy

What life with Maxy looks like

Maxy is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at De Poezenboot in Amsterdam.

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 Maxy, answered.

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