How do I contact the shelter about Mickey?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kat Zoekt Thuis vzw handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mickey on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mickey if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kat Zoekt Thuis vzw 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 Mickey 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 Mickey 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 Kat Zoekt Thuis vzw early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mickey and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Adopt Mickey

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

Name: Mickey Estimated birth date: March 2016 Gender: male cat Available: immediately Neutered: yes Microchipped and registered: yes Vaccinated: 2 times Can handle children: no Can handle dogs: no Can handle cats: yes, with a slow introduction This cat is staying at: Oostakker For this cat we are looking for a home where he can go outside in a safe enclosed garden or yard. Character and background of the cat: A nice ginger cat is looking for a golden basket! This lovely, rust-colored fellow of 9 years has experienced a lot, but is now ready for his next adventure. For a long time he lived on the street, where a kind elderly lady brought him food every day. Unfortunately, his health deteriorated and he became increasingly thin. Fortunately, he got the chance to receive the care he so deserved. After a visit to the vet, his teeth were completely fixed and with adapted food for his sensitive intestines, he is now a healthy, happy cat again! Since he trusts people, he must have had a house once. He is now looking for a loving home with an enclosed garden where he can safely enjoy the outdoors. Despite his past, he is a cuddly cat who likes to spend a quiet evening watching TV with you, lying at your feet or next to you on the couch. When you treat him gently, he is extremely affectionate, plays and likes to lie next to you. But if you tease him or actively play with your hands, he can become overstimulated. Therefore, he is looking for an owner who respects his boundaries and is patient with him. Are you looking for a cat friend who wants to live in your heart and home for the rest of his life? Then this treasure might be your perfect companion! He is deparasitized, dewormed, 2 times vaccinated, microchipped and registered. He tested negative for FIV and FeLV We ask for the usual assistance in veterinary costs of 200 euros when both vaccinations have already been given. Adoption process: First, a phone call will be made to check if there can be a good match between you and the cat, after which an appointment can be made for a visit so you can get to know each other. At adoption, an adoption contract is signed and the adoption fee is paid. Every cat leaves with a European passport. For more information about this cat or availability, you can contact Chantal by phone at 0485 96 17 74. Please leave a message with your name, phone number if not answered.

Naam: Mickey Geboortedatum: geschat maart 2016 Geslacht: kater Vrij: onmiddellijk Gecastreerd: ja Gechipt en geregistreerd: ja Gevaccineerd: 2 × Kan omgaan met kinderen: neen Kan omgaan met honden: neen Kan omgaan met katten: ja, met trage introductie Deze kater verblijft in : Oostakker Voor deze kater zoeken we een thuis waar hij wel naar buiten kan in een veilig afgesloten tuin of koer. Karakter en achtergrond van de kat: Leuke roste kater zoekt een gouden mandje! Dit lieve, roestkleurige ventje van 9 jaar heeft al heel wat meegemaakt, maar is nu klaar voor zijn volgende avontuur. Lange tijd leefde hij op straat, waar een zorgzame oudere dame hem elke dag eten bracht. Helaas ging zijn gezondheid achteruit en werd hij steeds magerder. Gelukkig kreeg hij de kans om de zorg te krijgen die hij zo verdiende. Na een bezoek aan de dierenarts is zijn gebit helemaal in orde gemaakt en met aangepaste voeding voor zijn gevoelige darmen is hij nu weer een gezonde, gelukkige kater! Aangezien hij mensen vertrouwt, moet hij ooit een huisje hebben gehad. Hij is nu op zoek naar een liefdevol thuis met een afgesloten tuintje waar hij veilig van de buitenlucht kan genieten. Ondanks zijn verleden is hij een knuffelbare kat die graag op een rustige manier een TV-avond met jou doorbrengt, liggend aan je voeten of naast je op de bank. Wanneer je zacht met hem omgaat, is hij ontzettend lief, spint en komt graag bij je liggen. Maar als je hem plaagt of actief met je handen met hem speelt, kan hij overprikkeld geraken. Daarom zoekt hij een eigenaar die zijn grenzen respecteert en geduldig met hem omgaat. Ben jij op zoek naar een kattenvriend die de rest van zijn leven in jouw hart en huis wil wonen? Dan is deze schat misschien wel jouw perfecte maatje! Hij is ontvlooid, ontwormd, 2x gevaccineerd, gechipt en geregistreerd. Hij testte negatief op aids en leucose We vragen de gebruikelijke tussenkomst in de dierenartskosten van 200 euro wanneer beide vaccinaties al gegeven werden. Adoptieprocedure: Er wordt eerst telefonisch nagegaan of er een goede match kan zijn tussen jou en de kat, nadien kan een afspraak gemaakt worden voor een bezoekje zodat jullie met elkaar kunnen kennis maken. Bij adoptie wordt een adoptiecontract getekend en de adoptiebijdrage betaald. Iedere kat vertrekt met een Europees paspoort. Voor meer info over deze kat of de beschikbaarheid kan je telefonisch contact opnemen met Chantal op het nummer 0485 96 17 74. Graag een boodschap inspreken met je naam, telefoonnummer indien er niet wordt opgenomen. Op sms’en wordt niet gereageerd. www.katzoektthuis.be

About Mickey

What life with Mickey looks like

Mickey is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Kat Zoekt Thuis vzw in Belgium.

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 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.
