Teun

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Teun is a beautiful red tomcat who was found in the countryside of Ommen when he was about six weeks old. He now lives with a foster family along with his two brothers and two sisters. It quickly became clear that he is used to people. He is very fond of you, purrs softly when he sees you and loves to be petted and cuddled. He is also very curious and if you are busy with something, he likes to lend a hand. In short, he loves people. But... he can also get along very well with other kittens. Together they have the best time and can play rough like the best of friends. We are looking for a nice home for Teun with another cat or kitten. Children are no problem for him. He doesn't know dogs yet, but depending on the type of dog, this may work out. Besides being super sweet, Teun is also a tough guy. He also looks beautiful. If you are looking for a tomcat with a super sweet character, look no further!

Teun, Teun is een prachtige rode kater die gevonden is in het buitengebied van Ommen, toen hij ongeveer zes weken oud was. Samen met zijn twee andere broertjes en twee zusjes verblijft hij nu bij een gastgezin. Het werd al snel duidelijk dat hij gewend is aan mensen. Hij is namelijk heel graag bij je, mauwt zachtjes als hij je ziet en vindt het heerlijk om aangehaald en geknuffeld te worden. Hij is ook super nieuwsgierig en als je ergens mee bezig bent, komt hij graag een handje helpen. Kortom hij vindt mensen geweldig. Maar.. …hij kan het ook heel goed vinden met de andere kittens. Samen hebben ze de grootste lol en kunnen ze ravotten als de beste. Voor Teun zoeken we een fijn thuis met een andere kat of kitten. Kinderen zijn voor hem geen probleem. Honden kent hij nog niet, maar afhankelijk van het type hond, gaat dit mogelijk wel samen. Naast dat Teun superlief is, is hij namelijk ook een stoere vent. Die er ook nog eens prachtig uitziet. Als je op zoek bent naar kater met een super lief karakter, zoek dan niet verder!

About Teun

What life with Teun looks like

Teun is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvang Koningen in Netherlands.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇳🇱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 Teun, answered.

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