How do I contact the shelter about Takkie en Siepie?

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

Can I adopt Takkie en Siepie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem 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 Takkie en Siepie 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 Takkie en Siepie 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 Dierenasiel Gorinchem early rather than rehoming privately; they know Takkie en Siepie 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.

Takkie en Siepie

Mixed Breed · Female · 6 months

Tackie and Siep are two sweet cats who are still a bit nervous at first. Fortunately, they quickly show their foster family that they have a lot to offer. In a short time, they have already made great strides - literally and figuratively! They are used to dogs and are now easy to pet. In fact, they are increasingly seeking out the company of the people in the foster family and lie down with them on their own. That is a wonderful step for these two great cats! They are still a bit too nervous to be picked up at the moment. But with patience, trust, and a calm pace, we expect them to develop further. Especially Takkie is a very adventurous girl and likes to explore. Her big brother Siep watches everything calmly and follows her example. Together, they complement each other beautifully. Because they are still busy growing in their self-confidence, we are looking for a quiet and loving home for Takkie and Siep. They find small children too exciting at the moment; with slightly older children, we do not expect any problems. We prefer a future possibility to safely go outside. So they can, when they are ready, also go on an adventure outside and enjoy their cat life. Who gives these two brave explorers the time, love, and space to grow further into confident cats?

Takkie en Siep zijn twee lieve katten die in het begin nog best wat spannend vinden. Gelukkig laten ze in hun gastgezin al snel zien dat ze ontzettend veel in hun mars hebben. In korte tijd hebben ze namelijk al grote sprongen gemaakt – letterlijk én figuurlijk! Ze zijn honden gewend en inmiddels goed te aaien. Sterker nog: ze zoeken zelf steeds vaker de gezelligheid op en komen uit zichzelf bij de mensen in het gastgezin liggen. Dat is een prachtige stap voor deze twee kanjers! Oppakken vinden ze op dit moment nog wat te spannend. Maar met geduld, vertrouwen en een rustig tempo verwachten we dat ze zich steeds verder zullen ontwikkelen. Vooral Takkie is een ondernemend dametje en gaat graag op onderzoek uit. Haar grote broer Siep kijkt het allemaal rustig aan en volgt haar voorbeeld. Samen vullen ze elkaar mooi aan. Omdat ze nog volop bezig zijn met groeien in hun zelfvertrouwen, zoeken we voor Takkie en Siep een rustig en liefdevol thuis. Kleine kinderen vinden ze op dit moment te spannend; bij wat grotere kinderen verwachten we geen problemen. Een toekomstige mogelijkheid om veilig naar buiten te kunnen, heeft onze voorkeur. Zo kunnen ze, wanneer ze daar helemaal klaar voor zijn, ook buiten op ontdekkingstocht en lekker genieten van hun kattenleven. Wie geeft deze twee dappere ontdekkers de tijd, liefde en ruimte om verder uit te groeien tot zelfverzekerde katten?
