Baccara

Female · Adult · 7 years

Baccara was saved from a terrible situation when she was held in a fattening park in Soumagne. The mesh floor of the barn where she was collapsed, throwing her directly into the manure pit with several dozen others. The pigs on the farm remained trapped there for several hours and most of them died by drowning in their own excrement. The survivors of this tragedy were particularly affected and will have lasting effects for a long time. Baccara spent the first 48 hours at the shelter sleeping in a warm stall where she literally buried herself in the straw.

Baccara a été sauvée d’une situation épouvantable alors qu’elle était détenue dans un parc d’engraissement à Soumagne. Le sol en caillebotis du hangar où elle était a cédé la plongeant directement avec plusieurs dizaines d'autres dans la fosse à lisier. Les cochons de l’exploitation y sont restés prisonniers plusieurs heures et la plupart y ont perdu la vie en se noyant dans leurs propres excréments. Les survivants de ce drame ont été particulièrement marqués et en garderont des séquelles pendant longtemps. Baccara a passé les premières 48h au refuge à dormir dans une stabulation chaude où elle s’est littéralement enfouie sous la paille. Rue du Haut Aulnoy n°29, 7822 Meslin l'Evêque

About Baccara

What life with Baccara looks like

Baccara is a adult bird waiting at Animaux en Péril ASBL in Belgium.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇧🇪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 Baccara, answered.

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