Twinkle en Pixie

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten · 3 months

Twinkle and Pixie are two 4-month-old sisters. They are a lively pair who love to run around and play. They are adventurous and curious, eager to explore everything. They will often come over to see what you're doing and ask for a scratch behind the ears. Then they'll dance off again. In their new home, they want space and the opportunity to go outside. That's when they feel their best. They can be placed together, but they won't mind being placed separately either. As long as there's another fun playmate around.

NL·Show original

Twinkle en Pixie zijn twee zusjes van 4 maanden oud. Ze zijn een vrolijk stel die graag rond rennen en dol zijn op spelen. Ze zijn ondernemend en nieuwsgierig, willen van alles ontdekken. Komen regelmatig even bij je kijken wat je aan het doen bent en om een aai te halen. Om daarna weer lekker verder te dansen. Willen in hun nieuwe huis graag de ruimte hebben en de mogelijkheid krijgen om naar buiten te gaan. Dan voelen ze zich het beste. Kunnen samen worden geplaatst, maar zullen het ook niet erg vinden als ze los van elkaar geplaatst worden. Mits er een ander leuk speelkameraadje aanwezig is.

About Twinkle en Pixie

What life with Twinkle en Pixie looks like

Twinkle en Pixie is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden in Leiden.

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 Twinkle en Pixie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Twinkle en Pixie?
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 Twinkle en Pixie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Twinkle en Pixie 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 Twinkle en Pixie 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 Twinkle en Pixie 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 Twinkle en Pixie 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.
