Ted

Female · 7 months

Ted is a beautiful cat with a lot of personality. She knows what she wants, is full of energy, and is also a big cuddler. ❤️ Ted has been placed before. Unfortunately, it turned out that living together with the cat that already lived there was not a good match, so she has returned to us. Ted has a fairly high energy level and can sometimes like to do her own thing. A master who can give her some boundaries in a quiet and consistent way would therefore suit her well. Because one thing is certain: Ted definitely does not lack in coziness! She is very social, very sweet and prefers to be as close to you as possible. Even to the kitchen? Ted goes with you. On the couch? Cozy. And do you have to go to the toilet in the middle of the night? There's a good chance that Ted thinks you could use some company there. 😂 She also finds closed doors a particularly unnecessary invention. We are therefore looking for someone who doesn't mind that Ted likes to roam around the house or someone who has the patience to set clear and consistent boundaries for her. Ted also likes to make her voice heard. She can be quite vocal and has a whole repertoire of funny sounds with which she makes it clear what she thinks of something. With Ted in the house, it's never boring! This lady is not easily impressed by dogs and a dog in her new home is therefore not a problem. A garden where she can go outside would be very nice for Ted. Now that she is back in the shelter and has to stay inside for the time being, the outside door is very interesting... Ted would prefer to decide for herself when that opens. 😉 Ted has been sterilized and as soon as she is well accustomed to her new home, she can safely enjoy the outdoors. We are looking for a master who is often at home, likes a cat with character and of course has a lot of hugs. In return, you get a social, funny and extremely affectionate lady who prefers to go everywhere with you. ❤️ Who falls for our stubborn cuddle kont Ted? 🏡🐾

Let op! Ted verblijft in een pleeggezin en is dus niet op het asiel aanwezig. U kunt alleen telefonisch uw interesse kenbaar maken. Mailen of langskomen voor haar heeft geen zin! Ted is een prachtige poes met een flinke dosis persoonlijkheid. Ze weet goed wat ze wil, zit vol energie en is tegelijkertijd een enorme knuffelkont. ❤️ Ted is al eens eerder geplaatst geweest. Helaas bleek het samenleven met de kat die daar al woonde geen goede match en daarom is ze weer bij ons teruggekomen. Ted heeft een behoorlijk hoog energieniveau en kan soms lekker haar eigen plan trekken. Een baasje dat haar op een rustige en consequente manier wat grenzen kan geven, zou daarom goed bij haar passen. Want één ding is zeker: aan gezelligheid ontbreekt het bij Ted absoluut niet! Ze is ontzettend sociaal, heel lief en het liefst zoveel mogelijk bij je in de buurt. Even naar de keuken? Ted gaat mee. Op de bank zitten? Gezellig. En moet je midden in de nacht even naar het toilet? Grote kans dat Ted vindt dat je daar best wat gezelschap bij kunt gebruiken. 😂 Gesloten deuren vindt ze dan ook maar een bijzonder onnodige uitvinding. We zoeken voor Ted daarom iemand die het prima vindt dat ze lekker door het huis kan scharrelen óf iemand die het geduld heeft om haar hierin duidelijk en consequent te begrenzen. Ted laat trouwens ook graag van zich horen. Ze kan behoorlijk vocaal zijn en heeft een heel repertoire aan grappige geluidjes waarmee ze duidelijk maakt wat ze ergens van vindt. Met Ted in huis is het in ieder geval nooit saai! Van honden is deze dame niet snel onder de indruk en een hond in haar nieuwe thuis hoeft dan ook geen probleem te zijn. Een tuin waarin ze lekker naar buiten kan zou voor Ted heel fijn zijn. Nu ze weer in de opvang zit en voorlopig binnen moet blijven, is de buitendeur dan ook héél interessant… Ted zou het liefst zelf bepalen wanneer die open gaat. 😉 Inmiddels is Ted gesteriliseerd en zodra ze goed gewend is aan haar nieuwe thuis, kan ze dus veilig van het buitenleven gaan genieten. Voor Ted zoeken we vooral een baasje dat veel thuis is, van een kat met karakter houdt en natuurlijk héél veel knuffels over heeft. In ruil daarvoor krijg je een sociale, grappige en ontzettend aanhankelijke dame die het liefst overal samen met jou naartoe gaat. ❤️ Wie valt er voor onze eigenwijze knuffelkont Ted? 🏡🐾

About Ted

What life with Ted looks like

Ted is a adult cat waiting at Dierenasiel Utrecht in Utrecht.

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 Ted, answered.

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