Basil

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Basil is a male European shorthair cat, born on 15/04/2026. He arrived at the shelter with his 5 siblings (Bergamote, Bloom, Barnabé, Buck, Bégonia) and their mother. Basil took longer than his siblings to adjust and gain confidence, but he has finally started to thrive. He is now seeking out affection and purring. Basil is a curious and playful kitten, although he is still a bit timid, especially around strangers. He needs a gentle and patient family to help him fully blossom.

Sexe : Mâle. Née le : 15/04/2026Type : Européen, blanc et grisBasil est arrivé avec ses 5 frères et soeurs (Bergamote, Bloom, Barnabé, Buck, Bégonia) et sa maman. Il aura fallu un temps d'adaption plus long que ses frères et soeurs, pour se mettre en confiance. Mais c'est chose faite. Basil commence à s'épanouir et sort enfin de sa coquille. Il commence à venir de lui même chercher les caresses et à ronronner. Basil est un chaton curieux et joueur, même si il reste encore un peu craintif, notamment avec les étrangers. Il lui faudra une famille douce et patiente, pour voir ce petit chaton tout doux, s'épanouir pleinement.Ok Chats : OuiOk Chiens : Non testéOk Enfants : OuiBesoin d'un extérieur : Test FIV/FELV : Vaccin Typhus Coryza : ouiStérilisé : Non.

About Basil

What life with Basil looks like

Basil is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Justine and Co in France.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Basil, answered.

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