Chacha

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

Chacha has been living on the streets for several months before being taken in by the shelter. His health has gradually deteriorated, and he was taken in to provide him with the care and security he needed. Chacha is a very fearful cat at first. He will need a lot of time, patience, and gentleness to feel safe. When his pace is respected and he is given time to approach, he accepts caresses and shows that he can form a bond with humans. Regarding his health, Chacha is a carrier of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). He will require regular veterinary check-ups to preserve his comfort and quality of life as much as possible. He will also need regular eye drops to maintain his ocular comfort. He gets along with other cats, but gradual introductions will be necessary to respect his pace and promote a good adaptation. Due to his FIV-positive status, Chacha will need to live without access to the outdoors, in a secure environment adapted to his needs.

FR·Show original

Chacha vivait errant depuis plusieurs mois avant d’être pris en charge par le refuge. Son état de santé s’est progressivement détérioré, et il a été accueilli afin de lui offrir les soins et la sécurité dont il avait besoin. Chacha est un chat très peureux au premier abord. Il aura besoin de beaucoup de temps, de patience et de douceur pour se sentir en sécurité. Lorsqu’on respecte son rythme et qu’on lui laisse le temps de s’approcher, il accepte les caresses et montre qu’il peut créer un lien avec l’humain. Concernant sa santé, Chacha est porteur du Sida du chat (FIV). Il nécessitera un suivi vétérinaire régulier afin de préserver au mieux son confort et sa qualité de vie. Il aura également besoin de gouttes dans les yeux de manière régulière afin de maintenir son confort oculaire. Il s’entend avec les autres chats, mais des présentations progressives resteront nécessaires afin de respecter son rythme et de favoriser une bonne adaptation. En raison de son statut FIV positif, Chacha devra vivre sans accès à l’extérieur, dans un environnement sécurisé et adapté à ses besoins.

About Chacha

What life with Chacha looks like

Chacha is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chacha, answered.

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