Bella

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

I am Bella and I was born in January 2022. I will soon be 5 years old. I am a friendly, lively and curious cat. I am also very playful, alone or with a human. But I warn you right away, I don't want to play with my fellow cats. I am quite exclusive and I don't like to find them on my way. At most, I tolerate them for eating, but that's it. I love cuddles and I can settle with you on the couch. But be careful! I am not a stuffed animal and you won't get everything you want from me; it's me who decides 😉. I don't need an outside. I never ventured far, it's not my thing. Watching out the window will be enough. If you want to meet me, no problem.

Je m'appelle Bella et je suis née en janvier 2022. Je fêterai donc bientôt mes 5 ans. Je suis une chatte plutôt sympa, vive et curieuse. Je suis aussi très joueuse, seule ou avec un humain. Mais je vous préviens tout de suite, je n'ai aucune envie de jouer avec mes congénères. Je suis assez exclusive et je n'aime pas trop les trouver sur mon chemin. A la limite, je les tolère pour manger, mais c'est tout. J'aime les caresses et je peux m'installer auprès de vous sur le canapé. Mais attention ! Je ne suis pas une peluche et vous n'obtiendrez pas de moi tout ce que vous voulez ; c'est moi qui décide 😉. Je n'ai pas besoin d'un extérieur. Je ne me suis jamais aventurée bien loin, ce n'est pas mon truc. Regarder par la fenêtre me suffira. Si vous avez envie de me rencontrer, aucun souci.

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at ADACA Amis Des Chats Abandonnes in France.

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 Bella, answered.

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