How do I contact the shelter about Pim?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Zwerfkat handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pim on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pim if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Zwerfkat 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 Pim 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 Pim 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 Zwerfkat early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pim 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.

Pim

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten

Pim, a handsome black female cat, is looking for a very special home. To be honest, I'm a bit of a master of hide and seek. I like to keep an eye on things from a distance (or from under the couch) and sometimes I'll hiss if you get too close too quickly. That's not because I'm angry, it's just a bit of healthy caution! If you give me the time and space I need, you'll see that I'm actually quite curious: Patience is rewarded: Give me some time and I'll come out to explore cautiously. Secretly a cuddly bear: I might still hiss out of habit, but if you approach me calmly, I'll let you pet me! Playtime: I love playing with other cats. Having a social companion in my new home is a big wish of mine, so we can play together and I can see that people are okay. I'm looking for a quiet home where I can grow and blossom at my own pace. Do you have that dream place and the patience to win my heart? Then I hope to meet you soon!

Hoi! Ik ben Pim, een knappe zwarte kattin van... tja, mijn leeftijd is een geheim, maar mijn charme niet! Ik ben op zoek naar een heel speciaal eigen huisje. Eerlijk is eerlijk: in het begin ben ik de kampioen verstoppertje spelen. Ik kijk de kat liever even uit de boom (of vanonder de bank) en durf soms te blazen als je te snel te dichtbij komt. Dat is geen boosheid, hoor, gewoon een beetje gezonde spanning! Als je mij de tijd en ruimte geeft die ik nodig heb, zul je zien dat ik stiekem heel nieuwsgierig ben: Geduld wordt beloond: Geef mij even de tijd en ik kom voorzichtig tevoorschijn om de boel te verkennen. Stiekem een knuffelbeer: Ik durf nog wel eens te blazen uit gewoonte, maar als je me rustig benadert, laat ik me al heerlijk aaien! Samen spelen: Ik vind andere katten supergezellig. Een sociaal soortgenootje in mijn nieuwe thuis is dan ook een grote wens, zodat we samen kunnen spelen en ik kan zien dat mensen best oké zijn. Ik zoek een rustig thuis waar ik helemaal op mijn eigen tempo mag groeien en openbloeien. Heb jij dat droomplekje én het geduld om mijn hart te veroveren? Dan hoop ik je snel te ontmoeten!

About Pim

What life with Pim looks like

Pim is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Zwerfkat in Belgium.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.
