Pica

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Pica, with her beautiful green eyes, loves peace and quiet, at least for now. It's possible that she will become more active once she's fully settled into her new home. She's still young and play is part of that. Right now, she finds everything exciting, and she enjoys attention, but she likes it quiet. So we're looking for a home with peace and routine, without a lot of fuss, young children, and other pets. From there, she'll find her rhythm. She will be spayed soon and can then move to her new home.

Pica met haar mooie groene ogen houdt van rust, in ieder geval op dit moment. Het kan uiteraard zo zijn dan als ze helemaal in haar nieuwe thuis gewend is dat ze actiever wordt. Ze is nog jong en spelen hoort daarbij. Nu vindt ze alles spannend, aandacht krijgen vindt ze wel fijn maar wel lekker rustig. Dus zoeken we een thuis met rust en regelmaat, zonder veel gedoe, kleine kinderen en andere huisdieren. Vanuit daar zal ze haar draai vinden. Ze wordt binnenkort gesteriliseerd en mag dan verhuizen naar haar nieuwe thuis.

About Pica

What life with Pica looks like

Pica 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 Pica, answered.

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