Cuicui

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 7 years

Cuicui est une petite minette d’environ 7 ans, arrivée au refuge suite à un trappage, tant elle était craintive et difficile à approcher. De petit gabarit, elle se fait discrète, observant beaucoup avant d’oser faire confiance. Toujours timide aujourd’hui, Cuicui reste une chatte profondément douce. Même dans ses moments de peur, elle n’a jamais montré la moindre agressivité. Avec de la patience et un cadre rassurant, elle apprécie les caresses et se révèle câline, à sa manière, tout en délicatesse. Elle recherche un environnement calme, sans enfants de moins de 12 ans et sans chien. Son entente avec les autres chats pourra être testée selon le foyer. Elle est négative au FIV (sida du chat) et à la leucose. À son arrivée, Cuicui était très amaigrie et souffrait d’un important coryza qui avait provoqué une forte inflammation buccale douloureuse. Soignée et désormais en meilleur état général, elle restera toutefois atteinte de gingivo-stomatite chronique. Cette affection nécessitera un traitement de soutien à vie afin de contrôler l’inflammation et la douleur. Elle reçoit actuellement de la cortisone ainsi que des compléments, qu’il faudra poursuivre sur le long terme. Cuicui est stérilisée, déparasitée, primo-vaccinée et identifiée par puce électronique. Permis de détention obligatoire pour toute adoption.

About Cuicui

What life with Cuicui looks like

Cuicui is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA La Louvière in Louviere.

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 Cuicui, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Cuicui?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA La Louvière handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Cuicui on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Cuicui if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA La Louvière 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Cuicui 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 Cuicui 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 SPA La Louvière early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cuicui 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.
