Wende

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Wende is a shy little cat who really needs to watch her step. She needs some time to come out of her shell. Wende was brought in here with her kittens. She is about 2.5 years old. Despite her shy nature, we definitely see potential in her. She just needs a lot of patience and love. We will only place her in a quiet household, without children and dogs. She gets along great with other cats and a social cat would probably help her to be less shy. Are you interested in Wende? Contact us for an introduction!

Wende is een poesje die echt de kat uit de boom moet kijken. Ze heeft even tijd nodig om uit haar schulpje te kruipen. Wende is hier samen met haar kittens binnengebracht. Ze is ongeveer 2,5 jaar oud. Ondanks haar verlegen karakter zien we zeker wel potentie in haar. Ze heeft gewoon veel geduld en liefde nodig. We plaatsen haar alleen in een rustig huishouden, zonder kinderen en honden. Ze kan prima met andere katjes overweg en waarschijnlijk zou een sociale kat haar ook helpen om minder verlegen te zijn.

About Wende

What life with Wende looks like

Wende is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenasiel ter Marse / Stadskanaal 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 Wende, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Wende?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenasiel ter Marse / Stadskanaal handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Wende on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Wende if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenasiel ter Marse / Stadskanaal 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Wende 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 Wende 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 Dierenasiel ter Marse / Stadskanaal early rather than rehoming privately; they know Wende 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.
