How do I contact the shelter about Bergson?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bergson on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bergson if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 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 Bergson 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 Bergson 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 Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bergson 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.

Adopt Bergson

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Age: born on 01/01/2021 Identification: 250 269 101 414 798 Physical characteristics: a beautiful black and white cat. Tested negative for FIV/FeLV, identified, spayed, vaccination in progress. Personality: Bergson is a 5-year-old male whose main characteristic is a deep need for human contact. He is not an independent cat: he seeks constant presence and does not hesitate to scratch at doors to join those he loves. Very gentle and social, he fits perfectly into an active family life where he can be the center of attention. In addition to his affectionate nature, he is a great player and a voracious eater who expresses his appetite very explicitly. For his well-being, he needs a home with adopters who are very present, capable of managing both his need for attention and his greediness through games and regulated feeding. Background: his owners had to give him up. Ideal placement: in a caring and attentive family, without young children. Contact: cat available in foster care in Paris. Contact Emilie after 7 pm or on weekends, by phone or by email or online form.

Age : né le 01/01/2021 Identification : 250 269 101 414 798 Caractéristiques physiques : beau chat noir et blanc. Testé FIV/FeLV négatif, identifié, stérilisé, vaccination en cours. Caractère : Bergson est un mâle de 5 ans dont la principale caractéristique est un besoin viscéral de contact humain. Ce n’est pas un chat indépendant : il cherche une présence constante et n’hésite pas à gratter aux portes pour rejoindre ceux qu’il aime. Très doux et social, il s’intègre parfaitement à une vie de famille active où il pourra être le centre de l’attention. Outre son caractère affectueux, c’est un grand joueur et un gourmand invétéré qui exprime son appétit de manière très explicite. Pour son équilibre, il nécessite un foyer avec des adoptants très présents capables de gérer d’une part son besoin d’attention, d’autre part sa gourmandise par des jeux et une alimentation régulée. Histoire : ses propriétaires ont dû s’en séparer. Placement idéal : dans une famille présente et attentionnée, sans jeunes enfants. Coordonnées : chat visible en famille d’accueil à Paris.
