Bourriquet is looking for his forever family 🐾💙 Bourriquet is a shy little cat, but a bit less so than his sister Before. 🌿 He still needs a little time to adjust to feel completely at ease, but his curiosity and playful side quickly take over. 🥰 He is a little observer, who likes to watch carefully what is happening around him before joining in. 👀🐾 But once he is confident, he can't resist the urge to play! Bourriquet is a lovely mix of reserve, curiosity and mischief. He will need a gentle and patient family, who will give him the time to settle in and gradually gain confidence. ❤️ With a little patience and a lot of kindness, there is no doubt that this little guy will reveal his full personality and become a wonderful companion. 🏡✨ Bourriquet is now waiting for his forever family, ready to offer him the warmth and security he needs to thrive. 🐱💙

About Bourriquet

What life with Bourriquet looks like

Bourriquet is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at AniMeaux in Meaux.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Bourriquet, answered.

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