Merry

European Shorthair · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Peppin is a curious kitten who loves to explore his surroundings. However, he can still find new situations and people a bit overwhelming and prefers to observe first. For Peppin, we are looking for a quiet home with people who can give him the time and patience to build trust at his own pace. With a gentle approach, we are confident he will flourish. A social cat in the house could be a great example and extra support for Peppin. A duo adoption with another kitten is also a definite plus. Do you think Peppin is right for you? Please fill out the contact form. ❤️

🐾 Peppin zoekt een thuis Peppin is een nieuwsgierige kitten die graag ontdekt wat er rondom hem gebeurt. Toch vindt hij nieuwe situaties en mensen soms nog wat spannend en kijkt hij liever eerst even de kat uit de boom. Voor Peppin zoeken we daarom een rustige thuis met mensen die hem de tijd en het geduld geven om op zijn eigen tempo vertrouwen op te bouwen. Met een zachte aanpak zien we hem zeker verder openbloeien. Een sociale kat in huis zou voor Peppin een fijn voorbeeld en extra steun kunnen zijn. Ook een duo-adoptie met een andere kitten is daarom zeker een pluspunt. 🐱 Denk jij dat Peppin bij jou past? Vul dan gerust het contactformulier in. ❤️

About Merry

What life with Merry looks like

Merry is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierenasiel Ganzeweide in Veurne.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇧🇪Adopting from Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Merry, answered.

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