How do I contact the shelter about Balthazar?

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

Can I adopt Balthazar if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Adopte Un Matou 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 Balthazar 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 Balthazar 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 Adopte Un Matou early rather than rehoming privately; they know Balthazar 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.

Balthazar

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 3 months

Balthazar, a small ginger kitten, is ready to join his forever home. This beautiful 3-month-old ginger kitten is ready to leave the nest and join his family for life. Raised with great gentleness by his mom Cléo, a young Siamese cat, and surrounded by his siblings, he has grown up in a family environment where he has learned the codes of cat life. Curious and full of energy, Balthazar loves to explore, play, and discover everything around him. He is a little adventurer with a big heart, always ready for a game before coming to rest. Very sociable, he particularly enjoys the company of his fellow cats and loves to fall asleep snuggled up against another cat. A home where a balanced cat already lives, or an adoption with one of his brothers or sisters, would be a real happiness for him. This little ginger cat is just waiting for a loving family who will offer him affection, games, a cozy bed, and a life filled with tenderness. Balthazar is available for adoption in Ivry-sur-Seine (94) under the Adopte un Matou association. He is offered for adoption: identified (microchip), first vaccinated (typhus/coryza), and dewormed (worms/fleas). His sterilization is mandatory from 6 months old (non-negotiable clause of the adoption contract). Adoption fee: €180. Placement followed. The exteriors (windows, balconies...) of his future home must be impeccably secured: preventing a kitten/cat from escaping or falling (we eliminate all requests that do not meet this condition).

Balthazar un petit rouquinou prêt à rejoindre son foyer. Ce magnifique chaton roux de 3 mois est prêt à quitter le nid pour rejoindre sa famille pour la vie. Élevé avec beaucoup de douceur par sa maman Cléo , une jeune chatte typée siamois, et entouré de sa fratrie, il a grandi dans un environnement familial où il a appris les codes de la vie de chat. Curieux et plein d’énergie, Balthazar adore explorer, jouer et découvrir tout ce qui l’entoure. C’est un petit aventurier au grand cœur, toujours partant pour une séance de jeux avant de venir se reposer. Très sociable, il apprécie particulièrement la compagnie de ses congénères et aime s’endormir blotti contre un autre chat. Un foyer où vit déjà un chat équilibré, ou une adoption avec l’un de ses frères ou sœurs, serait un véritable bonheur pour lui. Ce petit rouquin n’attend plus qu’une famille aimante qui lui offrira de l’affection, des jeux, un panier douillet et une vie remplie de tendresse. Balthazar est visible à Ivry S/Seine (94) sous l’association Adopte un Matou. Il est proposé à l’adoption: identifié (puce électronique), primo-vacciné (typhus/coryza) et vermifugé (vers/puces). Sa stérilisation est obligatoire dès ses 6 mois (clause non négociable du contrat d’adoption). Frais d’adoption : 180 € .Placement suivi. Les extérieurs (fenêtres, balcons…) de son futur foyer doivent impérativement être sécurisés : empêchant un chaton/chat de s’échapper ou chuter (nous éliminons toutes les demandes ne répondant pas à cette condition).

About Balthazar

What life with Balthazar looks like

Balthazar is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Adopte Un Matou in Maurecourt.

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 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.
