Winnie

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten · 2 months

Foster Family Character Description: Winnie is a true companion cat! This little lady thoroughly enjoys all the attention and company. She will seek you out to see what you're doing or simply to be close by. Cuddling up and sharing a restful moment together is what makes Winnie really happy. One thing is clear: Winnie is a wonderfully pleasant housemate! We are looking for a loving household for Winnie where someone is often present. She can be placed with children of all ages. A fellow cat in the home will be welcome to her, but it is not a requirement. Winnie can be kept as an indoor cat, provided there is enough stimulation indoors. If the opportunity exists and the surroundings are safe and quiet, Winnie could of course also go outside. Go back

Karakterbeschrijving gastgezin: Winnie is een echte gezelschapskat! Deze kleine dame geniet volop van alle aandacht en gezelligheid. Ze zoekt je dan ook graag op om te kijken wat je aan het doen bent of om gewoon bij je in de buurt te zijn. Knuffelen en samen genieten van een rustmoment, daar maak je Winnie heel blij mee. Eén ding is duidelijk, Winnie is een ontzettend fijne huisgenoot! Wij zoeken voor Winnie een liefdevol huishouden waar vaak iemand aanwezig is. Ze kan bij kinderen van alle leeftijden geplaatst worden. Een soortgenoot in huis zal ze gezellig vinden, maar is geen vereiste. Winnie kan als binnenkat gehouden worden, mits er voldoende uitdaging binnenshuis aanwezig is. Mocht de mogelijkheid er zijn en de omgeving veilig/rustig zijn, zou Winnie uiteraard ook naar buiten kunnen. Ga terug

About Winnie

What life with Winnie looks like

Winnie is a small kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Winnie, answered.

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