Tsikos

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

This is Tsikos! Tsikos is a gentle tomcat with a loving nature who is looking for a quiet and loving home for good. He is a bit shy at first, but once he feels safe, he becomes friendly, affectionate and very attached to human company. He has never shown aggression - only kindness and quiet curiosity. Tsikos is calm, quiet and easy to handle. You can lift him without him having to use his claws. Tsikos is a large, impressive tomcat (about 7 kg) with a good appetite. He has a few ingrown hairs/eyelashes at the right eye that occasionally cause tears. If he trusts you, you can clean this occasionally gently with a tissue and a saline solution. He gets along well with most cats, because he is passive, but an aggressive tomcat could cause him problems. It is unknown how he deals with children and other animals. Tsikos is looking for a responsible adopter who understands that shy cats just need some patience and kindness. Once he trusts you, he will become a loyal, peaceful companion who brings warmth and peace to the house. He will love a sheltered, cat-safe outdoor space, so we would like the future adopter to be able to offer that to him. If you are ready to give Tsikos the safe, loving life he deserves, he is waiting for you. Tsikos is neutered. Tsikos has tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

Dit is Tsikos! Tsikos is een zachtaardige kater met een lief karakter die op zoek is naar een rustig en liefdevol thuis voor altijd. Hij is in het begin een beetje verlegen, maar zodra hij zich veilig voelt, wordt hij vriendelijk, lief en is hij erg gesteld op menselijk gezelschap. Hij heeft nooit agressie getoond – alleen vriendelijkheid en stille nieuwsgierigheid. Tsikos is kalm, rustig en makkelijk in de omgang. Je kunt hem optillen zonder dat hij zijn klauwen hoeft te gebruiken. Tsikos is een grote, indrukwekkende kater (ongeveer 7 kg) met een goede eetlust. Hij heeft last van een paar ingegroeide haren/wimpers bij het rechteroog die af en toe tranen veroorzaken Als hij je eenmaal vertrouwt, kun je dit af en toe voorzichtig schoonmaken met een tissue en een zoutoplossing. Hij kan het goed vinden met de meeste katten, omdat hij passief is, maar een agressieve kater zou hem mogelijk problemen kunnen bezorgen. Het is onbekend hoe hij omgaat met kinderen en andere dieren. Tsikos zoekt een verantwoordelijke adoptant die begrijpt dat schuwe katten gewoon wat geduld en vriendelijkheid nodig hebben. Als hij je eenmaal vertrouwt, wordt hij een loyale, vredige metgezel die warmte en rust in huis brengt. Hij zal dol zijn op een beschutte, katveilige buitenruimte, dus we willen graag dat de toekomstige adoptant hem dat kan bieden. Als je er klaar voor bent om Tsikos het veilige, liefdevolle leven te geven dat hij verdient, wacht hij op je. Tsikos is gecastreerd. Tsikos is negatief getest op FIV/FeLV.

About Tsikos

What life with Tsikos looks like

Tsikos is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Mirtos Animal Project in Netherlands.

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 Tsikos, answered.

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