Adopt Chouffe

European Shorthair · Male · Senior · 14 years

Cats marked as "rescue" have an even more urgent need to find a family. This can be related to their age, a particular illness, or distress at the shelter. Chouffe came to the shelter because his previous home could no longer provide what he needed. He is a very shy cat who will need a calm and patient home that takes the time to gain his trust. He gets along well with other cats. Chouffe is feline immunodeficiency virus positive and will not have access to the outdoors or under certain conditions. Sans Collier is an animal protection association active in Belgium since 1972. Thanks to our two shelters and our social boarding, we save over 1,700 dogs and cats each year that are abandoned, abused, or lost.

Les chats signalés en « sauvetage » ont un besoin encore plus urgent de trouver une famille. Cela peut être lié à leur âge, une pathologie particulière ou un mal-être au refuge. Chouffe est arrivé au refuge car son ancien foyer ne pouvait plus lui apporter ce dont il avait besoin. C’est un chat très peureux qui aura besoin d’un foyer calme et patient qui prendra le temps de le mettre en confiance. Il s’entend aves les autres chats. Chouffe est porteur du sida du chat et n’aura pas d’accès à l’extérieur ou sous conditions. Sans Collier est une association de protection animale active en Belgique depuis 1972. Grâce à nos deux refuges et notre pension sociale, nous sauvons chaque année plus de 1 700 chiens et chats abandonnés, maltraités ou perdus.

About Chouffe

What life with Chouffe looks like

Chouffe is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇧🇪Adopting from Belgium

Frequently asked

Adopting Chouffe, answered.

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