About Batou

What life with Batou looks like

Batou is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Caresses de Chat 94 in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés.

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 Batou, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Batou?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Caresses de Chat 94 handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Batou on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Batou if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Caresses de Chat 94 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 Batou 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 Batou 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 Caresses de Chat 94 early rather than rehoming privately; they know Batou 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.
