Ebony

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 8 years

ADOPTION DUO AVEC CACHOU Ebony est une très jolie femelle tricolore d’environ 8 ans, arrivée au refuge suite au décès de son propriétaire. Elle vivait auparavant dans une maison avec plusieurs autres chats, dont Cachou et Boop. Après avoir connu une grande communauté féline, Ebony apprécierait désormais un foyer plus tranquille où elle pourra recevoir davantage d’attention, seule ou avec un ou deux chats maximum. Au premier abord, Ebony peut se montrer réservée et un peu méfiante. Elle préfère observer et prendre son temps avant d’accorder sa confiance. Mais une fois rassurée, elle sait se montrer câline et apprécie les moments de tendresse avec les humains qu’elle a appris à connaître. Ebony a aussi son petit caractère et peut parfois se montrer réticente : Elle aura donc besoin d’adoptants patients, respectueux de son tempérament et habitués aux chats. Elle recherche un environnement de vie calme, sans enfants de moins de 12 ans, et ne conviendra pas comme premier chat. Elle s’entend avec ses congénères, mais la cohabitation avec un chien n’est pas souhaitée vu son tempérament. Ebony est propre et devra vivre en intérieur, elle n'a jamais connu l'accès extérieur. Ebony est testée FIV et FeLV négatif. Elle a bénéficié d’une correction d’entropion. Une échocardiographie réalisée le 26/02/2025 a révélé une cardiomyopathie hypertrophique (CMH) au stade B1+, sans traitement nécessaire à ce stade, mais un contrôle échographique devra être réalisé tous les 6 mois. Ebony fait partie de nos chats « panier retraite » : une minette touchante qui mérite de retrouver la douceur d’un foyer calme et aimant pour écrire un nouveau chapitre de sa vie. Frais d'adoption : DON LIBRE (Panier retraite) (comprenant identification, stérilisation, primo-vaccination et déparasitage). L'adoption est un acte réfléchi qui implique des responsabilités sur le long terme. Le permis de détention d'un animal est obligatoire pour toute adoption.

About Ebony

What life with Ebony looks like

Ebony 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 Ebony, answered.

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