Adopt Pabloa

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Pabloa needs a cat expert. Right now she is upset and doesn't want anything to do with us. She would be approachable and loving but is fearful of strangers. Right now we only see fear and that comes out with aggression. Pabloa has often been alone at home so has not experienced much company. She is not used to children, dogs, other cats, or the garden. And she has never been to the vet before either. So she has had a very protected childhood. In any case, she needs a quiet, loving home with household members who have experience with cats. Who are firm in their shoes and are willing to take on this 'project Pabloa'. Who have the space and maybe a safe outside area where she can expend her energy.

Pabloa heeft een kattenkenner nodig Nu is ze nog van slag en wil nog niets met ons te maken hebben. Ze zou aanhalig en lief zijn maar wel angstig voor vreemden. Op dit moment zien wij alleen maar angst en komt dat er met agressie uit. Pabloa is vaak alleen thuis geweest dus heeft niet veel reuring meegemaakt. Ze is geen kinderen, honden, andere katten en tuin gewend. En was voorheen ook nooit bij de dierenarts geweest. Dus ze heeft een erg beschermde jeugd gehad. Sowieso heeft ze een rustig liefdevol thuis nodig met huisgenoten die ervaring hebben met katten. Die stevig in de schoenen staan en dit 'project Pabloa' aanwillen gaan. Die de ruimte hebben en misschien een veilig buiten waar ze haar energie kwijt kan.

About Pabloa

What life with Pabloa looks like

Pabloa is a young 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 Pabloa, answered.

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