Adrienne

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 3 years

Adrienne arrived at the shelter following a dog attack and is gradually recovering from this difficult experience. She’s a cat who has been through a traumatic event and is now looking for a calm, secure environment in which to rebuild her life. Adrienne is a fearful cat who will need time, patience, and gentleness to regain her confidence and thrive peacefully in her new home. Her recent past explains her sensitivity and her need to feel safe before she can fully open up. We don’t yet know how she gets along with other animals, so we’ll need to carry out introductions gradually and at her own pace.

FR·Show original

Adrienne est arrivée au refuge suite à une attaque de chien et se remet progressivement de cette expérience difficile. C’est une chatte qui a vécu un événement traumatisant et qui recherche aujourd’hui un environnement calme et sécurisant pour se reconstruire. Adrienne est une chatte peureuse, qui aura besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour reprendre confiance et évoluer sereinement dans son nouveau cadre de vie. Son passé récent explique sa sensibilité et son besoin de se sentir en sécurité avant de pouvoir s’ouvrir pleinement. Nous ne connaissons pas encore ses ententes avec les autres animaux, il faudra donc procéder à des présentations progressives et adaptées à son rythme.

About Adrienne

What life with Adrienne looks like

Adrienne is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Adrienne, answered.

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