Adopt Mini

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 5 years

This lovely cat Mini is waiting for someone who wants to give her a new home with a garden. Behind her soft eyes lies a story of hope, patience, and a great deal of love that she still has to give. She enjoys quiet cuddle moments, a sunny spot by the window, and gentle attention from people who take the time to make her feel safe. Maybe she can be a little cautious at first, but once you win her heart, you'll have a loyal companion for life. An animal shelter is never a real home. That's why we dream of someone who will let her feel what it's like to be loved, every single day. Maybe she's looking for you exactly. Give her the chance at a new beginning filled with warmth, peace, and love.

Deze lieve poes Mini wacht op iemand die haar een nieuwe thuis met een tuin wil geven. Achter haar zachte oogjes schuilt een verhaal van hoop, geduld en vooral heel veel liefde die ze nog te geven heeft. Ze houdt van rustige knuffelmomentjes, een zonnig plekje aan het raam en zachte aandacht van mensen die haar de tijd geven om zich veilig te voelen. Misschien is ze in het begin een beetje voorzichtig, maar eens je haar hart verovert, krijg je er een trouwe vriendin voor het leven bij. Een asiel is nooit een echte thuis. Daarom dromen we van iemand die haar laat voelen hoe het is om geliefd te zijn, elke dag opnieuw. Misschien zoekt zij wel precies jou. Geef haar de kans op een nieuw begin vol warmte, rust en liefde.

About Mini

What life with Mini looks like

Mini is a very small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierenasiel Schoten in Schoten.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mini, answered.

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