Adopt Rexie

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 3 years

Rexie is a beautiful long-haired tomcat about 3 years old. He came to us after being abandoned, he was only 2 weeks with the current owner but it didn't work out with the dogs in the house. Rexie is still a bit affected by everything but is now completely ready for his own golden bed. He needs some time to get to know you before he becomes more relaxed. Rexie is suited for indoor living only. He uses the litter box well. Now Rexie is looking for a place as an indoor cat again. He will no longer be placed with other animals. The way Rexie interacts with children is unknown. Who can give our boy a warm bed? ATTENTION: Rexie is long-haired, this requires very high grooming. Grooming requires time and effort! Jupiler and Choupette are a nice pair of 7 and 10 years old respectively. They came to us after being dumped in a crate on the street. Fortunately, these lovely kittens don't let it get to their hearts and they are already looking forward to a better and warm home where they never have to go away again! Jupiler and Choupette are looking for a home as a pair. Their interaction with other cats is unknown but a home just for them seems ideal. They can be placed with children from around 12 years old. Who can give them the warm home they deserve? If interested, you can send us an email with detailed answers to the accompanying questionnaire. Emails without answers will not be replied to. Visiting spontaneously is not possible. Please also do not call. We would like to know first about your home and work situation.

Rexie is een prachtige langharige kater van ongeveer 3 jaar oud. Hij kwam bij ons terecht na afstand, hij was nog maar 2 weken bij de huidige eigenaar maar het lukte niet met de honden in huis. Rexie is nog wat onder de indruk van alles maar is nu helemaal klaar voor zijn eigen gouden mandje. Hij heeft wat tijd nodig om je te leren kennen vooraleer hij wat los komt. Rexie is gewoon van enkel binnen te leven. Hij gaat flink op de kattenbak. Nu gaat Rexie opnieuw opzoek naar een plekje als binnenkatje. Hij wordt niet meer bij andere dieren geplaatst. Rexie zijn omgang met kinderen is onbekend. Wie kan onze jongen een warm mandje geven? OPGELET: Rexie is langharig, dit vraagt zeer veel vachtverzorging. Vachtverzorging vraagt tijd en inspanning! Jupiler en Choupette zijn een leuk duo van respectievelijke 7 en 10 jaar oud. Ze kwamen bij ons terecht nadat ze gedumpt werden in een bench op straat. Gelukkig laten deze lieve katjes het niet aan hun hart komen en kijken ze al uit naar een betere en warme thuis waar ze nooit meer weg hoeven te gaan! Jupiler en Choupette gaan als duo’tje op zoek naar een thuis. Hun omgang met andere katten is onbekend maar een thuisje voor enkel hen lijkt ons ideaal. Ze kunnen geplaatst worden bij kinderen vanaf +- 12 jaar. Wie kan hen de warme thuis geven dat ze verdienen? Bij interesse kan je ons een mailtje sturen met uitgebreide antwoorden op bijhorende vragenlijst. Mails zonder antwoorden worden niet beantwoord. Spontaan langskomen is niet mogelijk. Gelieve ook niet te bellen. Graag weten wij eerst wat over je thuis en werksituatie.

About Rexie

What life with Rexie looks like

Rexie is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierenasiel Sint-Hubertus in Aalst.

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 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 Rexie, answered.

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