Arko

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

ARKO is a little concentrate of sunshine on paws. ☀️ Found alone on the street, unidentified and unneutered, he has nonetheless kept an incredible joy for life and immense trust in humans. Playful, cuddly, funny, and fully present in family life, Arko turns every day into an adventure and every sofa into a purring machine. Tested FIV+ (feline AIDS) but in perfect health, he is now looking for HIS human, the one with whom to write a tender, joyful… and a bit wild story too. 💛 Born 25/07/2025 Identification: 250 26 96 99 80 63 79 Foster family: with Orane in Paris 12 Hi friends, My name is ARKO and I'm barely 1 year old! I'm a super feline roommate: playful, cuddly, curious, tender, and just the right amount of greedy. I was found on the street, unidentified and unneutered, so nobody knows my past. As for me, I've forgotten it, because I always have a positive attitude. Since then I've joined Orane and her children, and it's the kiffa

ARKO, c’est un petit concentré de soleil sur pattes. ☀️ Trouvé seul dans la rue, sans identification ni stérilisation, il a pourtant gardé une incroyable joie de vivre et une confiance immense envers l’humain. Joueur, câlin, drôle et ultra présent dans la vie de famille, Arko transforme chaque journée en terrain d’aventure et chaque canapé en machine à ronrons. Testé FIV+ (sida du chat) mais en parfaite santé, il cherche aujourd’hui SON humain, celui avec qui écrire une histoire tendre, joyeuse… et un peu folle aussi. 💛 Né le 25/07/2025 Identification : 250 26 96 99 80 63 79 Famille d'accueil : chez Orane à Paris 12 Coucou les amis, Je m'appelle ARKO et j'ai à peine 1 an! Je suis un super colocataire félin, joueur, câlin, curieux, tendre et gourmand ce qu'il faut. J'ai été trouvé dans la rue ni identifié ni stérilisé donc personne ne connait mon passé, en ce qui me concerne, je l'ai oublié car j'ai toujours la positive attitude. Depuis j'ai rejoint Orane et ses enfants, c'est la kiffa

About Arko

What life with Arko looks like

Arko is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Orfélins in orfelins.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Arko, answered.

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