Toor

Female · Young · 3 years

I am Toor and I can give the BEST cuddles in the world. That's because when I was at DOA with my two kittens, I found people very scary but I still wanted to be petted. When the caregivers talked to me, I found it too exciting to come close but I gave the walls around me a lot of cuddles to still feel like I was being petted. I was actually just very insecure and alone. I have gained some more confidence now so I can really appreciate cuddles. I still find loud noises or very unexpected movements scary. In the last photo, I just wanted to show what my cuddles look like! Hopefully we'll see each other soon :)

Ik ben Toor en ik kan de ALLERbeste kopjes geven van de wereld. Dat komt omdat ik (toen ik net bij DOA was met mijn 2 kittens) mensen heeeeel erg eng vond maar wel geaaid wilde worden. Als de verzorgers tegen mij gingen praten dan vond ik het te spannend om dichtbij te komen maar gaf ik de muren om mij heen heel veel kopjes om toch het idee te krijgen dat ik geaaid werd. Ik was eigenlijk gewoon heel onzeker en alleen. Inmiddels heb ik wat meer zelfvertrouwen gekregen waardoor ik aaien heel erg kan waarderen. Harde geluiden of hele onverwachte bewegingen vind ik nog wel spannend. Op de laatste foto wilde ik toch nog even laten zien hoe mijn kopjes er dan uitzagen! Hopelijk zien we elkaar snel :)

About Toor

What life with Toor looks like

Toor is a young adult cat waiting at DOA Dierenasiel Amsterdam in Amsterdam.

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 Toor, answered.

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