Crackers

European Shorthair · Male

Crackers is a very shy cat, always reserved when he doesn't know someone. The slightest change can impress him, and it will take a lot of time for him to trust his future family. With him, every small advancement will be a great victory, and patience will be the key to a beautiful relationship. Despite his shyness, Crackers is playful and full of life. When he feels safe, he can let loose into beautiful moments of play, revealing a lighter and endearing side of his personality. He gets along well with other cats, whose presence reassures him. A calm feline companion could help him feel more at ease and evolve more peacefully. Crackers spends a lot of time outside. He appreciates this balance between a reassuring indoor environment and an outside that soothes him. He is looking for a calm, patient, and respectful family, ready to give him all the time necessary to open up and build a strong and lasting bond.

CRACKERS est un chat très craintif, toujours sur la réserve lorsqu'il ne connaît pas. Le moindre changement peut l'impressionner et il lui faudra beaucoup de temps pour accorder sa confiance à sa future famille. Avec lui, chaque petite avancée sera une grande victoire, et la patience sera la clé d'une belle relation. Malgré sa timidité, CRACKERS est joueur et plein de vie. Lorsqu'il se sent en sécurité, il peut se laisser aller à de jolis moments de jeu, laissant apparaître une facette plus légère et attachante de sa personnalité. Il s'entend bien avec les autres chats, dont la présence le rassure. Un compagnon félin calme pourra l'aider à se sentir plus en confiance et à évoluer plus sereinement. CRACKERS passe souvent du temps dehors. Il apprécie cet équilibre entre un intérieur rassurant et un extérieur apaisant. Il recherche une famille calme, patiente et respectueuse de son rythme, prête à lui laisser tout le temps nécessaire pour s'ouvrir et construire un lien solide et durable.

About Crackers

What life with Crackers looks like

Crackers is a small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 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 Crackers, answered.

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