Adopt Noxy

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Noxy is a shy black female, she is a bit unsettled because she is no longer in her familiar environment, and she tries to hide. She does not behave badly but is insecure. Luckily, things are getting better and she now wants gentle attention. When you pick her up, she will lie down and roll in her basket and wants more attention. She is used to another cat, but they did not have much in common. She has not met dogs or children and given her personality, we think it is better if she does not have them in her new home. We are looking for a quiet home where she can take her time to adjust at her own pace.

Read original (nl)

Noxy is een onzeker zwart dametje, ze is nog wat van slag omdat ze niet meer in haar vertrouwde omgeving is, en probeert zich alleen maar te verstoppen. Ze doet niet lelijk maar is onzeker. Gelukkig gaat het steeds beter en wil ze nu graag voorzichtig aandacht. Als je haar aanhaalt gaat ze liggen rollen in haar mandje en wil ze meer aandacht. Ze is gewend aan een andere kat maar ze hadden niet veel met elkaar op. Honden en kinderen kent ze niet en gezien haar karakter lijkt ons dat ook beter van niet. We zoeken voor haar een rustig thuis waar ze de tijd krijgt om in haar eigen tempo te wennen.

About Noxy

What life with Noxy looks like

Noxy is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at De Poezenboot in Amsterdam.

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 Noxy, answered.

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