Novi

Old English Sheepdog · Female · Young · 1 year

Deze mooie cyperse dame is Novi, een jonge poes van 1 jaar en 10 maanden oud. Novi is geen kat die meteen op de voorgrond treedt. Ze bekijkt nieuwe mensen en situaties liever eerst van een afstandje en neemt de tijd om te ontdekken of alles wel te vertrouwen is. Met een rustige benadering en een beetje geduld zie je haar nieuwsgierigheid langzaam de overhand krijgen. Stap voor stap komt Novi dichterbij om eens voorzichtig te kijken wie je bent en wat je aan het doen bent. Wanneer ze zich op haar gemak voelt, laat ze haar lieve kant zien en kan ze je zelfs verrassen met zachte kopjes als teken van vertrouwen. Voor Novi zoeken we een rustig thuis waar ze de tijd krijgt om op haar eigen tempo te wennen. Mensen die begrijpen dat niet iedere kat direct op schoot springt, zullen in haar een ontzettend lieve en bijzondere huisgenoot vinden. Ben jij degene die Novi het vertrouwen en de rust kan geven die ze nodig heeft? Dan krijg je daar een lieve vriendin voor terug die je vertrouwen stap voor stap zal belonen

About Novi

What life with Novi looks like

Novi is a young adult old english sheepdog 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 Novi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Novi?
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 Novi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Novi 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 Novi 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 Novi 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 Novi 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.
