Peaches

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Peaches is a feisty lady, she has been with us for a while because of her kittens. In the meantime, those have been placed and Peaches has recently been spayed. Now she can also be placed. She was thin when she came to us and had a very thin coat. Fortunately, that has improved. She has had quite a lot of experience. Peaches is alert, active, needs space, is not afraid but still a bit cautious. She needs time to calm down and gain trust in her new home. We are looking for a spacious home with people who have experience with cats and therefore have patience and tact. A home, especially at the beginning, without other cats or dogs. She is not used to small children and probably that is too busy for her too. She is not used to a garden but we think she will find a safe garden interesting.

Peaches is een dame met pit, ze is al een tijdje bij ons vanwege haar kittens. Inmiddels zijn die geplaatst en is Peaches recent gesteriliseerd. Nu mag ze ook geplaatst worden. Ze was mager toen ze bij ons kwam en had een erg dun vachtje. Inmiddels is dat gelukkig al verbeterd. Ze heeft dus nogal wat meegemaakt. Peaches is alert, bewegelijk, heeft de ruimte nodig, is niet bang maar toch wat op haar hoede. Ze heeft tijd nodig om tot rust te komen en vertrouwen te krijgen in haar nieuwe thuis. We zoeken een ruim thuis bij mensen die ervaring met katten hebben en dus geduld en tact hebben. Een thuis, zeker in het begin, zonder andere katten of honden. Kleine kinderen is ze niet gewend en waarschijnlijk is dat ook te druk voor haar. Ze is geen tuin gewend maar we denken dat zij een veilige tuin wel interessant zal vinden.

About Peaches

What life with Peaches looks like

Peaches is a small 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 Peaches, answered.

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