Cigale

Male · Senior · 12 years

Cigale was born with one eye and has little or no physical problems because of it. When approaching, however, great care must be taken, as she startles easily and can unexpectedly come from the corner. She is not a riding horse. As with all young Asselian horses, basic training must be followed by groundwork before this can be loaded and depart. Feel free to send an email and I will send you all the adoption arrangements.

Cigale is geboren met één oogje en heeft daar weinig of geen fysieke last van. Bij het benaderen moet daar natuurlijk wel sterk rekening mee gehouden worden, ze schrikt snel en kan onverwacht uit de hoek komen. Is wel geen rijpaard. Zoals met alle jonge asielpaarden moeten basislessen grondwerk gevolgd worden voor deze kan geladen worden en kan vertrekken. Stuur gerust een mailtje dan stuur ik alle afspraken rond adoptie door.

About Cigale

What life with Cigale looks like

Cigale is a senior horse waiting at The Old Horses Lodge in Belgium.

Adopting a horse is a long-term commitment that almost always requires either land or a boarding stable. The shelter will discuss the horse's training level, vet history, and what kind of work or companionship they're suited for. Expect ongoing costs: feed, farrier, vet, and stabling.

🇧🇪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 Cigale, answered.

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