Archibald et Madeline

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Recovered with a broken leg and a fractured foot, in September 2025 (estimated birth in May 2025), he was probably hit by a car or fell from a balcony. After a long period of immobilization, he has fully recovered and will have no lasting effects. Archibald is a gray, gentle cat. He likes being petted, but it's up to him. He will then rub against you. 🩺 They will be spayed as soon as they are old enough. Recovered at the end of June 2025, at one month old, Madeline suffers from ataxia. She was quickly taken care of and proved to be a fighter. She will need constant stimulation and veterinary monitoring that the association can assist with. Her unstable gait and involuntary or imprecise movements make her vulnerable. Balconies and terraces must be securely protected. Adorable and very affectionate, she requires a lot of attention. 🩺 They will be spayed as soon as they are old enough. This cat's FIV status applies — see shelter for details.

Récupéré avec le bassin et une patte cassés, en septembre 2025 (naissance estimée en mai 2025), il a probablement été heurté par une voiture ou est tombé d’un balcon. Après une longue immobilisation, il est entièrement guéri et n’aura pas de séquelles. Archibald est un gentil chat tout gris. Il aime les caresses, mais c’est lui qui décide. Il viendra alors se frotter contre vous. 🩺 Santé : En ordre de vaccins, déparasités, identifiés et dépistés FIV / FELV négatifs. Ils seront stérilisés dès qu'ils seront en âge de l'être. Récupérée fin juin 2025, à un mois, Madeline souffre d’ataxie. Très vite prise en charge, elle se révèle une battante. Elle aura besoin de stimuli constants et d’un suivi vétérinaire que l’association pourra accompagner. Sa démarche instable, ses mouvements involontaires ou imprécis la rendent vulnérable. Balcons et terrasses devront être impérativement sécurisés. Attachante et très câline, elle demande beaucoup d’attention. 🩺 Santé : En ordre de vaccins, déparasités, identifiés et dépistés FIV / FELV négatifs. Ils seront stérilisés dès qu'ils seront en âge de l'être.

About Archibald et Madeline

What life with Archibald et Madeline looks like

Archibald et Madeline is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at La Voie Féline in la voie feline.

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 France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Archibald et Madeline, answered.

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