Pip

Female · Baby · 6 months

Pip and Everest were admitted to the shelter in Lummen on July 19. They will be allowed to move out after a three-week observation period, starting September 10. The two girls will only move together. Background: Pip and Everest were given up due to time constraints and a relocation. Description: Pip has just recently arrived at the shelter, so a detailed personality description is not yet available. Pip is a bit skittish when being picked up, but generally allows it quite smoothly. Once she’s settled with you, she’ll climb onto your shoulders to groom herself.

Pip en Everest zijn op 19/07 binnengekomen in de opvang te Lummen. Ze mogen verhuizen na 3 weken observatie, dus vanaf 10 augustus. De meisjes verhuizen enkel samen. Achtergrond Pip en Everest werden omwille van tijdtekort en een verhuis afgestaan. Beschrijving Pip is nog maar juist in de opvang, dus een uitgebreide karakterbeschrijving is er nog niet. Pip is een beetje pieperig bij het oppakken, maar laat het in het algemeen wel vlot toe. Eenmaal ze bij je zit klimt ze naar jouw schouders om zich te wassen.

About Pip

What life with Pip looks like

Pip is a puppy/kitten animal waiting at Rattenopvang Ratopia vzw in Belgium.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Pip far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇧🇪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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pip, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pip?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Rattenopvang Ratopia vzw handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pip on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pip if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Rattenopvang Ratopia vzw 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 Pip already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals 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 Pip 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 Rattenopvang Ratopia vzw early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pip 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.
