Monty

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Meet Monty, a handsome red-and-white tomcat who is 6 years old. Monty is a friendly and affectionate cat who absolutely loves attention. He’s quick to enjoy a nice cuddle session. Like many cats, however, Monty likes to decide for himself when enough is enough. He can clearly indicate when he’d like a little break and some quiet time. That’s why we’re looking for a calm home with children aged 12 and older who can respectfully recognize his body language. Are you looking for a friendly housemate who loves seeking your attention but also knows his own boundaries? Then Monty might just be the perfect match for you.

Maak kennis met Monty, een knappe rood-witte kater van 6 jaar oud. Monty is een gezellige en aanhankelijke kat die dol is op aandacht. Een fijne kroelsessie slaat hij dan ook niet snel af. Zoals veel katten bepaalt Monty echter graag zelf wanneer het genoeg is. Hij kan duidelijk aangeven wanneer hij even met rust gelaten wil worden. Daarom zoeken we voor hem een rustig thuis met kinderen vanaf 12 jaar, die zijn lichaamstaal goed kunnen respecteren. Ben jij op zoek naar een gezellige huisgenoot die graag jouw aandacht opzoekt, maar ook zijn eigen grenzen heeft? Dan is Monty misschien wel de perfecte match voor jou.

About Monty

What life with Monty looks like

Monty is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvangcentrum Breda in Breda.

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 Monty, answered.

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