Mixed Breed Β· Male Β· Adult Β· 6 years

🐾 Hello, I'm Morris! 🐾 At first I might be a bit of a tough guy πŸ˜Όβ€¦ When I had just arrived here, I hid away and every now and then let out a hiss and a growl. But honestly? That was over quickly! After a few days I discovered that people are actually quite nice. I'm a curious fellow who likes to keep an eye on everything. So you'll often find me trailing behind you – I need to know what's going on! Meanwhile, I love to tell you my whole story with meows and cute prrr-sounds. So I'm not quiet… but that just makes me extra good company 😸 Closed doors? I'm no fan of those. Really not. If you close one, I'll immediately give a little concert in protest 🎀 Luckily I'm flexible: I have my own little spot, but I like to come and go as it suits me. I get along well with other cats. I live here together with Julleke, and believe me… he's the boss 😹 I fully respect that and leave him be. So I'm definitely not a dominant cat. Cuddles? Yes, please! I'm a very sweet boy who enjoys them. At first I was so enthusiastic that I sometimes gave love nibbles… but I've since learned to be a bit gentler about it πŸ˜‰ Being picked up is fine with me too! I'm not a true lap cat, but I do like to come snuggle up on the sofa with you (though usually not for hours on end). I also love playing, especially with balls! A scratching post… well, that's not quite my thing yet. Maybe you can teach me that? In the evenings I can sometimes get a bit restless, because I love looking outside. A safely enclosed garden or terrace would really be a dream for me 🌿 πŸ’› One small but important detail: I am FIV-positive. But don't let that put you off β€” with the right care and a loving home, I can still lead a wonderful life! In short: I'm a curious, chatty, sweet tomcat with character and a big heart. Will you give me a home where I can be myself? Paw from Morris 🐾 Interested in adopting me? Then fill in this short questionnaire quickly! PLEASE NOTE: We may not always reply immediately, but we always do reply! Be sure to check your spam folder too! More information about the adoption fee and adoption procedure can be found on our website: www.zwerfpoezenrupelstreek.be

🐾 Hallo, ik ben Morris! 🐾 In het begin ben ik misschien een beetje een stoere bangerik πŸ˜Όβ€¦ Toen ik hier net aankwam, verstopte ik mij en liet ik af en toe eens een blaas en een grom horen. Maar eerlijk? Dat was snel voorbij! Na een paar dagen ontdekte ik dat mensen eigenlijk best wel leuk zijn. Ik ben een nieuwsgierige kerel die graag alles in de gaten houdt. Je zal me dus vaak achter je zien aanlopen – ik moet weten wat er gebeurt! Ondertussen vertel ik je graag mijn hele verhaal met miauwtjes en schattige prrr-geluidjes. Stil ben ik dus niet… maar dat maakt mij net extra gezellig 😸 Gesloten deuren? Daar ben ik geen fan van. Echt niet. Als je die dicht doet, geef ik meteen een klein concertje als protest 🎀 Gelukkig ben ik flexibel: ik heb mijn eigen plekje, maar ik kom en ga graag zoals het mij uitkomt. Met andere katten kan ik goed overweg. Hier woon ik samen met Julleke, en geloof me… hij is de baas 😹 Ik respecteer dat volledig en laat hem gerust. Ik ben dus zeker geen dominante kat. Aaikes? Ja graag! Ik ben een hele lieve jongen die daarvan geniet. In het begin was ik zΓ³ enthousiast dat ik af en toe liefdesbeetjes gaf… maar ik heb intussen geleerd om dat iets zachter aan te pakken πŸ˜‰ Oppakken vind ik ook okΓ©! Een echte schootkat ben ik niet, maar ik kom wel graag gezellig bij je op de zetel liggen (al is het meestal niet voor uren aan een stuk). Spelen doe ik ook graag, vooral met balletjes! Een krabpaal… tja, dat is nog niet helemaal mijn ding. Misschien kan jij me dat nog leren? ’s Avonds kan ik soms wat onrustig worden, want ik kijk héél graag naar buiten. Een veilig afgesloten tuintje of terras zou voor mij echt een droom zijn 🌿 πŸ’› Kleine belangrijk detail: ik ben FIV-positief. Maar laat je daardoor niet afschrikken β€” met de juiste zorg en een liefdevol thuis kan ik nog een prachtig leven leiden! Kortom: ik ben een nieuwsgierige, babbelgrage, lieve kater met karakter en een groot hart. Geef jij mij een thuis waar ik mezelf mag zijn? Pootje van Morris 🐾 Interesse om mij te adopteren? Vul dan snel deze korte vragenlijst in! OPGELET: Wij antwoorden misschien niet onmiddellijk, maar wel altijd! Check zeker ook je spam!

About Morris

What life with Morris looks like

Morris is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Zwerfpoezen Rupelstreek in PUURS-SINT-AMANDS.

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‡§πŸ‡ͺAdopting 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 Morris, answered.

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