Sprinkle

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 10 years

Sprinkle is a 10-year-old cat who was no longer manageable in her former family... the arrival of a baby caused Sprinkle to exhibit severe aggression, both towards the baby and the adults. A medical check has shown that Sprinkle is fortunately completely healthy. In the foster home, she is spoiled with lots of love and patience and treats 😊 Slowly, Sprinkle is forgetting that she needs to use aggression to defend herself and that people are actually quite nice. And as long as she gets treats, she even lets herself be petted now! Sprinkle is now stable enough to be adopted. Read more about Sprinkle here

Sprinkle is een 10 jaar oude poes die in haar voormalige gezin niet meer te handhaven was… de komst van een baby maakte dat Sprinkle heftige agressie ging inzetten, zowel naar de baby als naar de volwassenen. Een medische check heeft uitgewezen dat Sprinkle gelukkig helemaal gezond is. In het gastgezin wordt ze verwend met heel veel liefde en geduld en met snoepjes 😊 Langzaam vergeet Sprinkle dat ze agressie moet inzetten om zichzelf te verdedigen en dat mensen eigenlijk best heel gezellig zijn. En als ze maar snoepjes krijgt laat ze zich nu zelfs aaien! Inmiddels is Sprinkle stabiel genoeg om te kunnen worden geadopteerd. Lees hier meer over Sprinkle

About Sprinkle

What life with Sprinkle looks like

Sprinkle is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Stichting Thuiszorg voor Huisdieren 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sprinkle, answered.

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