How do I contact the shelter about BOHORTE?

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

Can I adopt BOHORTE if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Refuge Angoumois 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 BOHORTE 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 BOHORTE 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 Refuge Angoumois early rather than rehoming privately; they know BOHORTE 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.

BOHORTE

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 7 years

Bohorte arrived at the shelter in 2024 as part of a removal due to mistreatment, along with about twenty other cats. A difficult past that now explains his great shyness. Naturally reserved, Bohorte will need time, patience, and a lot of gentleness to gain confidence in his future family. He is a gentle, calm cat and absolutely not aggressive. Even when he is afraid, Bohorte does not seek to harm: he prefers to be discreet and observe. He already accepts being touched and petted, proof that he is ready to move forward, at his own pace. He gets along very well with other cats, whose presence could be a real reference to help him flourish in his new home. ✨ Bohorte does not ask for much: a calm, caring family ready to give him the time to discover that life can also be made of gentleness, security and love. Behind his shyness is a tender and peaceful little loulou who finally deserves his chance. 🐾

Bohorte est arrivé au refuge en 2024 dans le cadre d’un retrait pour maltraitance, aux côtés d’une vingtaine d’autres chats. Un passé difficile qui explique aujourd’hui sa grande timidité. De nature réservée, Bohorte aura besoin de temps, de patience et de beaucoup de douceur pour prendre confiance dans sa future famille. C’est un chat doux, calme et absolument pas agressif. Même lorsqu’il a peur, Bohorte ne cherche pas à faire de mal : il préfère se faire discret et observer. Il accepte déjà qu’on le touche et qu’on le caresse, preuve qu’il est prêt à avancer, à son rythme. Il s’entend très bien avec les autres chats, dont la présence pourrait être un véritable repère pour l’aider à s’épanouir dans son nouveau foyer. ✨ Bohorte ne demande pas grand-chose : une famille calme, bienveillante et prête à lui laisser le temps de découvrir que la vie peut aussi être faite de douceur, de sécurité et d’amour. Derrière sa timidité se cache un petit loulou tendre et paisible qui mérite enfin sa chance. 🐾 Bohorte est arrivé au refuge en 2024 dans le cadre d’un retrait pour maltraitance, aux côtés d’une vingtaine d’autres chats.

What life with BOHORTE looks like

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.
