How do I contact the shelter about Waffles?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenopvang Koningen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Waffles on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Waffles if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenopvang Koningen 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 Waffles 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 Waffles 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 Dierenopvang Koningen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Waffles 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.

Waffles

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Waffles: a very funny and sweet little guy almost 4 months old who is looking for a forever home. Waffles came to us as a stray and despite being clearly used to people, he was never picked up... but we promised this little guy he would find a place where he would be very welcome! Waffles is just a darling! He is happy with everything and we all find him very endearing here. He loves people and enjoys the attention. He also loves to play and enjoys playing with you, but he can also entertain himself with toys. As soon as he's been cuddled and played with, he goes to lie down contentedly and then goes to sleep. We've had Waffles here with other kittens, but he really doesn't like it. He doesn't understand them and wants to chase them away, which isn't fun for either party. As soon as he's alone, without other kittens/cats, he's much more comfortable and that's why we're looking for a place where he can live as the only cat. No cats, no dogs. Just with people who want only 1 cat and he can be very happy! We are looking for sweet people for Waffles who will give him a forever home!

Waffles: een heel grappig en lief ventje van bijna 4 maanden jong die opzoek is naar een gouden mandje. Waffles is als vondeling bij ons binnen gekomen en ondanks hij duidelijk aan mensen gewend was, werd hij nooit opgehaald.. maar wij hebben dit ventje beloofd dat hij nu een plekje gaat vinden waar hij wel heel welkom is! Waffles is gewoon een schatje! Hij is gelukkig met alles en wij vinden hem hier dan ook allemaal erg aandoenlijk. Hij is gek op mensen en geniet enorm van de aandacht. Hij is ook gek op spelen en vindt het leuk als je met hem speelt, maar hij kan zichzelf ook prima vermaken met speelgoed. Zodra hij uit geknuffeld en gespeeld is, gaat hij tevreden ergens liggen en gaat dan lekker slapen. Wij hebben Waffles hier samen gehad met andere kittens, maar dit vindt hij echt niet leuk. Hij begrijpt ze niet en wilt ze daardoor bij hem wegjagen en dat is voor beide partijen niet leuk. Zodra hij alleen is, zonder andere kitten/katten is hij veel meer op zijn gemak en daarom kiezen we er voor hem voor om een plekje te zoeken waar hij als enige kat mag wonen. Geen katten, geen honden. Gewoon bij mensen die maar 1 kat willen en hij dan helemaal gelukkig mag zijn! Voor Waffles zoeken wij dus lieve mensen die hem een gouden mandje gaan geven!

About Waffles

What life with Waffles looks like

Waffles is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvang Koningen 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.
