Nori

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten · 3 months

Foster family character description: Nori is a social and curious kitten who loves to seek out her people. New people and new surroundings may feel a little exciting for Nori at first, but she soon blossoms into a cheerful young lady who enjoys exploring the whole house. Nori likes to follow you around a lot and regularly climbs onto your shoulders. She can also lie beside you wonderfully for a well-earned beauty nap. Although Nori likes to be near her people a great deal, she entertains herself perfectly well on her own. She has a nice balance between play and rest and is a kitten who simply loves being part of your everyday life. For Nori we are looking for a cozy household where someone is regularly at home and she receives enough attention. She can possibly be placed with children aged 6 and up. It is a requirement for Nori that a social/playful companion animal is already present in her new home. In time, Nori would like to go outside to explore the quiet, green surroundings. Go back

Karakterbeschrijving gastgezin: Nori is een sociaal en nieuwsgierig kitten dat graag haar mensen opzoekt. Nieuwe mensen en -omgevingen kan Nori in het begin wat spannend vinden, maar al snel bloeit ze op tot een vrolijke dame die graag op ontdekking gaat door het hele huis. Nori vindt het leuk om veel achter je aan te lopen en klimt regelmatig in je nek. Daarnaast kan ze heerlijk bij je liggen voor een welverdiend schoonheidsslaapje. Ondanks dat Nori veel bij haar mensen in de buurt wil zijn, vermaakt ze zich prima zelfstandig. Ze heeft een fijn balans tussen spel en rust en is een kitten dat gewoon graag deel uitmaakt van jouw dagelijkse leven. We zoeken voor Nori een gezellig huishouden waar regelmatig iemand thuis is en ze voldoende aandacht krijgt. Ze kan eventueel bij kinderen vanaf 6 jaar oud geplaatst worden. Het is voor Nori een voorwaarde dat er al een sociale/speelse soortgenoot aanwezig is in haar nieuw thuis. Op den duur wil Nori naar buiten om de rustige, groene omgeving te ontdekken. Ga terug

About Nori

What life with Nori looks like

Nori is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem in Netherlands.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇳🇱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 Nori, answered.

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