Bio Name: Nola Date of birth: 16-8-2020 Sex: female Species/colour: mix Size: normal Health: operated on her hind leg, FIV positive Character: calm, submissive, cautious with new people Country of origin: Bulgaria (4) Nola has had surgery on her hind leg. She still walks a little differently from others. She has a calm character. She enjoys being petted, but she waits for you to come to her. In a previous foster family (in Bulgaria), where she stayed for her leg operation, she came up to her human a bit more. We think she doesn't enjoy the cat group. She doesn't want competition for attention. She likes to sleep and enjoys spending time with other (relaxed) cats. Nola was found in Bulgaria by a veterinarian. She was admitted and operated on for her little leg. The veterinarian took her home to recover after the surgery. Afterwards, they brought her to the shelter. Nola was in shock in a large group.

About Special Case

What life with Special Case looks like

Special Case is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Stichting Zilver in —.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Special Case, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Special Case?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Zilver handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Special Case on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Special Case if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Zilver 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Special Case 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 Special Case 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 Stichting Zilver early rather than rehoming privately; they know Special Case 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.
