Timon & Zazu

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 5 months

Timon and Zazu! A very friendly couple who prefer to spend their days together. They play and wrestle with conviction, then snuggle up together for a well-deserved power nap. They are also very fond of their humans and love to seek attention and affection. Timon (cream red) is an energetic young man who goes through life playing. Timon is very food-oriented and sometimes accidentally bites your fingers. A food game/puzzle can help challenge him in this. Zazu (red) is a bit calmer and prefers to watch the cat out of the tree first. Once he is used to his surroundings and people, he turns out to be a lovely, cozy good fellow. Although their characters differ, they complement each other perfectly! We are looking for a cozy household for Timon and Zazu where there is a lot of attention for them. They can possibly be placed with children from 12 years old. Timon and Zazu want to go outside in the long run to discover the quiet, green surroundings.

Dit zijn Timon en Zazu! Een erg gezellig koppel dat de dagen bij voorkeur samen doorbrengt. Ze spelen en stoeien vol overtuiging, om vervolgens knus tegen elkaar aan te ploffen voor een welverdiende powernap. Ze zijn daarnaast dol op hun mensen en zoeken de aandacht en liefde maar al te graag op. Timon (crèmerood) is een energieke knul die al spelend door het leven gaat. Timon is erg voergericht en wil hierbij ook wel eens per ongeluk in je vingers happen. Een voerspel/-puzzel kan helpen om hem daarin meer uit te dagen. Zazu (rood) is iets rustiger en kijkt eerst liever even de kat uit de boom. Eenmaal gewend aan zijn omgeving en mensen, ontpopt hij zich tot een heerlijke, gezellige goedzak. Hoewel hun karakters verschillen, vullen ze elkaar perfect aan! Voor Timon en Zazu zijn we op zoek naar een gezellig huishouden waar veel aandacht voor hen is. Ze kunnen eventueel bij kinderen vanaf 12 jaar oud geplaatst worden. Timon en Zazu willen op den duur naar buiten om de rustige, groene omgeving te ontdekken. Ga terug

About Timon & Zazu

What life with Timon & Zazu looks like

Timon & Zazu is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem 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 Timon & Zazu, answered.

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