How do I contact the shelter about Xavier?

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

Can I adopt Xavier if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenopvangtehuis De Bommelerwaard 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 Xavier 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 Xavier 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 Dierenopvangtehuis De Bommelerwaard early rather than rehoming privately; they know Xavier 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.

We look at what you can offer and whether it fits the animal. This way, every animal comes with its own story. During their stay in our shelter, we create a profile for ourselves, but also for the animal. This includes: character, health, necessary living conditions and specific needs. This way, we can give the animals the best care and we also know what the animal needs in its new home. The first intake for a kitten or cat is done by having a phone conversation. We then ask you 'the skin off your back' so we can make the right match.

Hoi hoi, ik ben Xavier! Ik ben een ontzettend lieve en zachtaardige kater. Eigenlijk vind ik maar weinig fijner dan lekker geaaid worden. Dus heb jij zin in een kater die graag bij je komt voor een flinke portie aandacht? Dan ben ik jouw man! 😉 Ik ben ook dol op klimmen en springen. Stilzitten kan ik dus wel, maar er moet natuurlijk ook af en toe wat te beleven zijn. Daarom zou ik het op den duur ook heerlijk vinden om lekker naar buiten te kunnen.

About Xavier

What life with Xavier looks like

Xavier is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Dierenopvangtehuis De Bommelerwaard 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.
