How do I contact the shelter about Nova?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Animals Faith handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nova on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Nova if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Animals Faith 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 Nova 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 Nova 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 Stichting Animals Faith early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nova 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.

Nova

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

Nova is a lovely young male cat—just a bit shy. He has a positive outlook on life and genuinely thinks everything is just fine. He eats his food neatly from his bowl every time—a truly exemplary little fellow. However, he occasionally has trouble with bowel movements and urination; he doesn’t always manage to use the litter box properly. The cause remains unclear. We’ve tried pain medication—Metacam and Solensia—but while there was some improvement, the results weren’t lasting. Here at Anima’s Faith Foundation, we’re continuing our search, and the veterinarian is actively involved in the process. Nova is so kind and affectionate—a wonderful companion! He’s a real cuddlebug. He deserves a home where he’s not only seen for those “tricky accidents,” but also appreciated as a sociable, good-natured cat. Given his gentle nature, we believe Nova would be very happy in a fenced-in garden or on a nice balcony. Breed: European Shorthair / gray Gender: Male—neutered Date of birth: July 2024 Health check: Vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed Can live with children: Yes, provided they are supervised Can live with dogs: No Can live with cats: Yes, provided they are supervised If you can’t adopt Nova but still want to support him, click here and become a sponsor now!

NL·Show original

Nova is een schat van een jonge kater. Een beetje verlegen. Hij staat positief in het leven. Vindt echt alles oké. Hij eet braaf zijn bakje leeg. Een voorbeeldig kereltje. Alleen heeft hij regelmatig problemen met poepen en plassen. Dat lukt hem niet altijd om dat braaf op de kattenbak te doen. De reden is nog niet duidelijk. Er is pijnmedicatie geprobeerd, metacam en solensia. Er was wel verbetering maar geen blijvend resultaat. Hier bij stichting Anima’s Faith gaat de zoektocht verder en de dierenarts denkt mee. Nova is zo vriendelijk en aanhankelijk, een mooie vriend. Een knappe knuffelaar. Hij verdient een thuis waar Nova niet alleen gezien wordt met die “lastige ongelukjes”, maar ook als een sociale goedgehumeurde kater. Gezien zijn zachtaardig karakter denken we dat Nova heel tevreden zal zijn met een afgeschermde tuin of een leuk balkon. Ras: Europese korthaar / grijs Geslacht: Kater - gecastreerd Geboortedatum: juli 2024 Keuring: Gevaccineerd, gechipt, ontwormd Kan bij kinderen: Ja, mits begeleid Kan bij honden: nee Kan bij katten: Ja, mits begeleid Kan je Nova niet adopteren, maar wil je hem wel steunen?
