Tom en Zorro

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

Tom and Zorro are two 1-year-old male cats. They were brought to us because their owner was no longer able to care for them. This pair is incredibly sweet and craves lots of attention. They absolutely love being petted and regularly come by for a cuddle session. They enjoy being around us, and we’ve heard that when they encounter their owner outside, they happily join him for a walk. This delightful pair is looking for a cozy home with at least two people, so they won’t have to compete for a lap.

Tom en Zorro zijn twee katers van 1 jaar oud. Ze zijn bij ons gebracht nadat de eigenaar niet meer in staat was om voor ze te zorgen. Dit stel is super lief en wil vooral veel aandacht. Ze zijn dol op kroelen en komen geregeld bij ons langs voor een aaisessie. Zijn graag bij ons in de buurt en we hebben begrepen dat ze buiten ook gezellig met de baas mee wandelen als ze die tegen komen. Dit heerlijke stel zoekt een gezellig huishouden met minstens twee personen zodat ze niet hoeven te strijden om één schoot.

About Tom en Zorro

What life with Tom en Zorro looks like

Tom en Zorro is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden in Leiden.

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 Tom en Zorro, answered.

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