Milou

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Hi everyone, my name is Milou and I'm a very nice cat lady, 3.5 years old. I love to sit on your lap and I also like to come to your bed, I'm a kind of free heating. I'm an easy eater, I like everything, but not too much of course, I have to watch my line. I can get along with other children, they know this from my previous owner and I love catnip toys and playing with a fishing rod. They are looking for a house where I can stay inside, I don't really like going outside, especially not with this cold. I really can't get along with other cats, so my new house should not have other pets. Do you think you're my match? Then contact the shelter.

Hoi iedereen, mijn naam is Milou en ik ben een hele leuke poezendame van 3,5 jaar oud. Ik hou ervan om lekker op schoot te komen zitten en kom ook graag bij je op bed liggen, een soort gratis verwarming ben ik. Ik ben een makkelijke eter, lust alles, maar niet teveel natuurlijk, ik moet op mijn lijn letten. Ik kan met andere kinderen, dit weten ze van mijn vorige eigenaar en ik hou enorm veel van catnip speeltjes en spelen met een hengeltje. Ze zoeken hier een huisje waar ik lekker binnen mag vertoeven, naar buiten gaan hoeft niet zo van mij, toch zeker niet met deze kou. Ik kan echt niet met andere katten, dus mijn nieuwe huisje mag geen andere huisdieren hebben. Denkt u mijn match te zijn? Neem dan contact op met het asiel.

About Milou

What life with Milou looks like

Milou is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenasiel 't Julialaantje in Rijswijk.

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 Milou, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Milou?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenasiel 't Julialaantje handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Milou on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Milou if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenasiel 't Julialaantje 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Milou 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 Milou 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 't Julialaantje early rather than rehoming privately; they know Milou 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.
