How do I contact the shelter about Pipo?

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

Can I adopt Pipo if I live in another country?

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

Pipo

Mixed Breed · Male

Pipo is a sweet black-colored tomcat who likes to take things at his own pace. When he arrives somewhere new, he first takes a quiet look around. He needs some time to discover his new surroundings and get to know you. Once Pipo is comfortable with you, he shows more of his playful side. He loves to play and then shows what a friendly character is behind that cautious face. Although Pipo can enjoy attention, he doesn't need it constantly. He also loves to lie on a comfortable spot and do his own thing. Pipo gets along well with other cats, as long as they are not too busy or pushy. A quiet household where he can feel safe and relaxed would suit him well. Pipo is missing one claw on his paw. In the past, he got stuck somewhere, causing his claw to die. This has since fully healed. Pipo doesn't have any problems with it: he walks, runs, and plays just like any other cat. We are looking for a loving home for Pipo where he can get used to his own pace and build trust. ✓ Sweet and calm character ✓ Needs time to get used to at first ✓ Playful when he feels comfortable ✓ Enjoys petting and cuddling ✓ Gets along well with calm cats ✓ Misses one claw, but doesn't have any problems with it Will you give Pipo the time to build trust at his own pace? Then you'll get a sweet and playful tomcat back who will show you more and more of his beautiful character step by step. ❤️🐾 Vroenhoutseweg 37 4703 SH Roosendaal Tel.

Pipo is een lieve zwartgekleurde kater die graag alles rustig op zijn eigen tempo doet. Wanneer hij ergens nieuw komt, kijkt hij eerst rustig de kat uit de boom. Hij heeft even de tijd nodig om zijn nieuwe omgeving te ontdekken en om jou goed te leren kennen. Wanneer Pipo eenmaal aan je gewend is, laat hij steeds meer van zijn speelse kant zien. Hij vindt het heerlijk om te spelen en laat dan goed zien wat voor gezellig karakter er achter dat voorzichtige koppie zit. Hoewel Pipo zeker van aandacht kan genieten, heeft hij daar geen constante behoefte aan. Hij vindt het ook heerlijk om lekker op een comfortabel plekje te liggen en rustig zijn eigen ding te doen. Met andere katten kan Pipo prima overweg, zolang ze maar niet te druk of opdringerig zijn. Een rustig huishouden waarin hij zich veilig en ontspannen kan voelen, zou daarom goed bij hem passen. Pipo mist één teentje aan zijn poot. In het verleden is hij ergens vast komen te zitten, waardoor zijn teentje is afgestorven. Dit is inmiddels volledig genezen. Pipo heeft hier zelf geen last van: hij loopt, rent en speelt gewoon zoals iedere andere kat. Voor Pipo zoeken we een liefdevol thuis waar hij de tijd krijgt om op zijn eigen tempo te wennen en vertrouwen op te bouwen. ✓ Lief en rustig karakter ✓ Heeft in het begin tijd nodig om te wennen ✓ Speels wanneer hij zich op zijn gemak voelt ✓ Geniet van aaien en knuffelen ✓ Kan goed met rustige katten ✓ Mist één teentje, maar heeft hier geen last van Gun jij Pipo de tijd om op zijn eigen tempo vertrouwen op te bouwen? Dan krijg je er een lieve en speelse kater voor terug die je stap voor stap steeds meer van zijn mooie karakter zal laten zien. ❤️🐾 Vroenhoutseweg 37 4703 SH Roosendaal Tel.

About Pipo

What life with Pipo looks like

Pipo is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Het Dierenhuis in Netherlands.

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.
