How do I contact the shelter about Poki?

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

Can I adopt Poki if I live in another country?

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

Poki

Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Hey Poki is my name, also known as Spooky! I am a handsome boy almost 4 months old. When I arrived at the animal shelter, I was very thin and sick, but fortunately, there is nothing left of that, except that my tear ducts are a bit narrowed. That means you have to clean my snout a little sometimes. I am catching up on my backlog in the foster home! Playing with the rattle tunnel or my toy mouse are favorites and I also love food. I have also discovered a fun "hobby"... Shredding paper is the best! If there are world championships, I'll definitely win them! Now my wish list for a new start with you: A nice cat playmate, cozy children who understand that I'm still a child, lots of toys and a lovely soft bed. Oh yes, I don't like being alone all day. Do you think we can be a match and can you meet my wishes, send an extensive email to my foster parents. See you soon, Poki General information: All our cats and kittens on the website are directly adoptable. They are 12 weeks or older. After an introduction at the foster home, an appointment can be made to finalize the adoption. If you want to know more about the adoption process, you can view this page:

Deze katten verblijven in één van onze pleeggezinnen die zijn geselecteerd door het Dierenopvangcentrum Breda. Bij interesse kunt u zelf contact opnemen met het pleeggezin. Emailadres: Hey Poki hier… Ik ben een lief katertje van 4 maanden oud. Na meerdere weken in het pleeggezin te hebben gezeten, is het tijd voor mijn echte eigen huisje inclusief leuk speelmaatje! Ik kan me prima alleen vermaken, maar vindt het nog leuker om samen te ravotten. Ook vind ik het fijn als er een tuin is, waar ik in de toekomst lekker kan spelen. Kinderen zijn ook leuk, zolang ze begrijpen dat ik ook nog kind ben en regelmatig moet slapen. Soms lijkt het of ik een vieze snoet heb, maar dat komt omdat de traanbuisjes vernauwd zijn, door de niesziekte die ik heb gehad. Daar merk ik niks van, maar af en toe een poetsbeurt zou fijn zijn. Verder ben ik gek op lekker eten en slaap ik graag samen met mijn knuffelbeer in mijn mandje of gewoon bij jou op schoot! Zie jij het wel zitten en heb je een leuk speelmaatje voor mij? Stuur mijn pleegouders dan snel een berichtje. Pootje van Poki 🐾 Algemene informatie: Al onze katten en kittens op de website zijn direct plaatsbaar. Ze zijn 12 weken of ouder.Na kennismaking bij het pleeggezin kan er direct een afspraak worden gemaakt om de adoptie verder af te handelen.

About Poki

What life with Poki looks like

Poki is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Dierenopvangcentrum Breda in Breda.

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 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.
