Bourik

Mixed Breed · Male · 4 months

Bourik is an adorable little cat very close to humans, showing us more of his personality every day. He is a curious, playful, and very endearing little fellow who particularly enjoys moments of tenderness. Very affectionate, he willingly comes to sit next to his human to demand caresses with big meows. He does not come on laps and does not particularly seek to be carried, but he loves to stay close and solicit interactions in his own way. Since his arrival, Bourik has evolved a lot. He has gained confidence and no longer just seeks cuddles: he explores more, plays, and is increasingly interested in his environment. He is gradually gaining confidence and becoming an increasingly fulfilled little cat. The presence of another cat is important to him. He will need to share his daily life with one or more congenial cats, who can provide him with interactions and references. In terms of health, Bourik is generally in good shape. However, his digestive system remains fragile, especially since he had coccidiosis when he was little. He must therefore continue to eat veterinary-specific digestive croquettes for several weeks or months, or even for life if his digestive sensitivity persists. He also has a small umbilical hernia, which will need to be operated on at the same time as his castration. In addition to the presence of at least one cat, he can live with a dog or children. He can live in a house or apartment (if there is a balcony, it will need to be secured).

Bourik est un adorable petit chat très proche de l’humain, qui nous montre chaque jour un peu plus sa personnalité. C’est un petit bonhomme curieux, joueur et très attachant, qui apprécie particulièrement les moments de tendresse. Très câlin, il vient volontiers se poser à côté de son humain pour réclamer des caresses à grands coups de petits miaulements. Il ne vient pas sur les genoux et ne recherche pas particulièrement à être porté, mais il aime rester tout près et solliciter les interactions à sa manière. Depuis son arrivée, Bourik a beaucoup évolué. Il a gagné en assurance et ne se contente plus de rechercher les câlins : il explore davantage, joue et s’intéresse de plus en plus à son environnement. Il prend progressivement confiance et devient un petit chat de plus en plus épanoui. La présence d’un autre chat est importante pour lui. : il aura besoin de partager son quotidien avec un ou plusieurs congénères bien dans leurs pattes, qui pourront lui apporter des interactions et des repères. Sur le plan de la santé, Bourik est globalement en bonne forme. Son système digestif reste toutefois fragile, notamment car il a eu la coccidiose lorsqu’il était petit. Il doit donc continuer à manger des croquettes vétérinaires spécifiques pour la digestion, pendant encore plusieurs semaines ou mois, voire à vie si sa sensibilité digestive persiste. Il présente également une petite hernie ombilicale, qui devra être opérée en même temps que sa castration. En plus de la présence de déjà au moins un chat, il pourra cohabiter avec un chien ou des enfants. Il pourra vivre en maison ou en appartement (si présence d'un balcon, celui-ci devra être sécurisé).

About Bourik

What life with Bourik looks like

Bourik is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at ADPK - Association Des P in adpk association des p tits korrigans.

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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bourik, answered.

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