Moos

European Shorthair Β· Male Β· Adult Β· 10 years

Moos is a sweet, sociable senior who loves all the attention. At first he can be a little hesitant, but once he feels at ease, his affectionate nature comes to the fore. He then likes to seek you out for cuddles. These cuddle sessions are accompanied by loving head-butts and sometimes even licks. For Moos we are looking for a cozy household where someone is regularly at home, so he gets enough attention. We expect that he will be close to you a lot. Moos can be placed with children aged 6 and up. He will enjoy a social companion animal, but this is not a requirement. Moos can be kept as an indoor cat, provided the living space offers sufficient stimulation. He will certainly appreciate a number of comfortable resting spots! Go back

Moos is een lieve, sociale senior die geniet van alle aandacht. In het begin kan hij een beetje afwachtend zijn, maar zodra hij zich op zijn gemak voelt, komt zijn aanhankelijke karakter naar voren. Hij zoekt je dan graag op om te knuffelen. Deze knuffelsessies gaan gepaard met liefdevolle kopjes en soms zelfs likjes. Voor Moos zoeken we een gezellig huishouden waar regelmatig iemand thuis is, zodat hij voldoende aandacht krijgt. We verwachten dat hij veel bij je in de buurt zal zijn. Moos kan bij kinderen vanaf 6 jaar oud geplaatst worden. Een sociale soortgenoot zal hij gezellig vinden, maar is geen vereiste. Moos kan als binnenkat gehouden worden, mits de woonruimte voldoende uitdaging biedt. Een aantal fijne rustplekken zal hij zeker waarderen! Ga terug

About Moos

What life with Moos looks like

Moos is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem in Netherlands.

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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡³πŸ‡±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 Moos, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Moos?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierentehuis Arnhem handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Moos on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Moos if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Dierentehuis Arnhem 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 Moos 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Moos isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Dierentehuis Arnhem early rather than rehoming privately; they know Moos 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 β€” 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.
