About BOUGIE

What life with BOUGIE looks like

BOUGIE is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Le Refuge 61 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting BOUGIE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about BOUGIE?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Le Refuge 61 handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw BOUGIE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt BOUGIE if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Le Refuge 61 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 BOUGIE 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 BOUGIE 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 Le Refuge 61 early rather than rehoming privately; they know BOUGIE 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.
