Wiep

European Shorthair Β· Male Β· Adult Β· 4 years

Maak kennis met Wiep, die een moeilijke start heeft gehad. Hij is gevonden en had in het begin totaal geen vertrouwen in mensen. Alles was spannend en eng. Met veel geduld, rust en liefde heeft Wiep grote stappen gezet. Hij wilt graag aangehaald worden. Voor Wiep zoeken we een rustig en geduldig thuis waar hij op eigen tempo verder mag groeien. Hij hoeft geen knuffelkat vanaf dag één te zijn; juist mensen die genieten van het winnen van zijn vertrouwen zullen ontzettend veel voldoening uit Wiep halen. Omdat hij nog jong is, verwachten we dat hij in de toekomst ook weer graag naar buiten zal willen. Uiteraard is Wiep ❀️ Gesteriliseerd πŸ’‰ GeΓ«nt πŸ†” Gechipt Gun jij Wiep de tijd die hij nodig heeft? Dan krijg je er misschien niet direct een schootkat voor terug, maar wel het mooiste cadeau: het vertrouwen van een kat die heeft geleerd dat mensen ook lief kunnen zijn.

About Wiep

What life with Wiep looks like

Wiep is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Stichting Dierentehuis Vijfheerenlanden in LC Leerdam.

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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡³πŸ‡±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 Wiep, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Wiep?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Dierentehuis Vijfheerenlanden handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Wiep on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Wiep if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Stichting Dierentehuis Vijfheerenlanden 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 Wiep 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Wiep isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Stichting Dierentehuis Vijfheerenlanden early rather than rehoming privately; they know Wiep 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 β€” 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.
