CHARLY

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 10 months

CHARLY is a big, sweet kitten, a true “good nature” as described so well by his foster family. Very close to humans, he loves being held and enjoys long cuddling sessions. With him, tender moments are guaranteed! He’s also a very playful, curious, and energetic cat. CHARLY will need a stimulating environment, with plenty of toys and activities to thrive fully. In his foster home, he lives surrounded by cats, dogs, and even rabbits, which shows his great adaptability and friendly temperament. Charlie, however, has a small peculiarity: he has a heart murmur that requires annual veterinary control (echocardiography). This doesn’t prevent him from living happily, but it does require regular follow-up. The shelter remains of course available to answer all your questions and support future adopters, both during the adoption process and for the veterinary follow-up of CHARLY. Today, this big kitten with a huge heart is waiting for his forever family, ready to offer love, attention… and plenty of arms for cuddles at will.

About CHARLY

What life with CHARLY looks like

CHARLY is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Refuge Angoumois in Angoulême.

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 CHARLY, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about CHARLY?
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 CHARLY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt CHARLY 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 CHARLY 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 CHARLY 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 CHARLY 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.
