πŸ“‹ Even kennismaken Naam: Rin (Mama) & Riku (kitten) Geboortedatum: 01.01.2025 & 14.05.2026 Geslacht: Kattin & Kattin Kinderen: Vanaf 12j Andere katten: Kan Andere dieren: Niet bekend Buiten: Kan Zindelijk: Ja. Beschrijving: Maak kennis met Rin en haar dochtertje Riku, twee bijzondere dames met elk hun eigen karakter. Rin is de mama van een nestje van vijf. Ze is een pittige dame met een duidelijke eigen wil. Ze is duidelijk gewend aan andere katten en kan het dan ook uitstekend vinden met onze eigen kater. Rin is vooral graag op zichzelf, maar geniet zeker van een heerlijk aaitje wanneer ze daar zelf voor kiest. Een echte dame die precies weet wat ze wil. Rin is gewend aan onze eigen dochter van 10 jaar. Ze wordt beter niet geplaatst bij jonge kindjes. Riku is één van de kittens uit het nestje van vijf en werd geboren op 14 mei. Ze is een mooi grijs meisje dat in het begin wat terughoudend kan zijn. Ze heeft een beetje tijd nodig om vertrouwen te krijgen en zich op haar gemak te voelen. Maar geef haar die tijd en ruimte, en dan komt haar lieve karaktertje vanzelf tevoorschijn. Een mama en dochter duo klaar voor hun nieuwe thuis Soort dier: Kat Geslacht: Vrouwelijk Leeftijd: 01.01.2025 & 14.05.2026

About Rin & Riku

What life with Rin & Riku looks like

Rin & Riku is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst in Belgium.

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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡§πŸ‡ͺAdopting 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 Rin & Riku, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rin & Riku?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rin & Riku on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rin & Riku if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst 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 Rin & Riku 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Rin & Riku isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rin & Riku 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 β€” 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.
