Ollie

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 2 months

Foster Family Character Description: Ollie is an active and somewhat mischievous kitten. Challenge his brothers and sisters? Ollie is only too happy to do that! This little adventurer is always up for a play session and enthusiastically gets up to mischief on a regular basis. But watch out, because sometimes Ollie suddenly comes to lie on your lap for a loving cuddle moment. Despite his tough character, Ollie secretly finds it quite exciting to meet new people or to be in unfamiliar situations. Especially at the beginning, he will need time and space to gain some confidence. We expect that after a calm settling-in period he will be a very fun housemate. For Ollie, we are looking for a cozy (but predictable) household where he does not have to be alone too often. He can possibly be placed with children aged 10 and up. A social/playful companion of his own kind is a must for Ollie. In time, Ollie wants to go outside to explore the safe, green surroundings. Go back

Karakterbeschrijving gastgezin: Ollie is een actief en tikkeltje ondeugend kitten. Zijn broertje en zusjes uitdagen? Dat doet Ollie maar al te graag! Deze kleine avonturier is altijd in voor een speelsessie en haalt vol enthousiasme regelmatig wat kattenkwaad uit. Maar kijk uit, want soms komt Ollie ineens bij je op schoot liggen voor een liefdevol knuffelmoment. Ondanks zijn stoere karakter, vindt Ollie het stiekem best spannend om nieuwe mensen te ontmoeten of om zich in onbekende situaties te bevinden. Vooral in het begin zal hij de tijd en ruimte nodig hebben om wat zelfvertrouwen te krijgen. Wij verwachten dat hij na een rustige wenperiode een heel leuk huisgenoot zal zijn. Wij zoeken voor Ollie een gezellig (maar wel voorspelbaar) huishouden waar hij niet te vaak alleen hoeft te zijn. Hij kan eventueel bij kinderen vanaf 10 jaar geplaatst worden. Een sociale/speelse soortgenoot is voor Ollie een must. Op den duur wil Ollie naar buiten om de veilige, groene omgeving te ontdekken. Ga terug

About Ollie

What life with Ollie looks like

Ollie is a small 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 Ollie, answered.

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