Edgard

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

Edgar was taken in by the shelter after the death of the elderly person with whom he lived. He resided in a house and did not go out, despite the possibility. After the death of his owner, Edgar unfortunately stayed alone in the house for five days before being taken in. Unlike a very reserved cat, Edgar is a sociable cat who seems to enjoy human presence. He is comfortable in interactions and should be able to quickly form a bond with his new family. Edgar also lived with other cats and the cohabitation was good. He seems to be used to sharing his daily life with his fellow cats and could appreciate the presence of another cat in his future home, with the usual introductions. Having always lived mainly indoors and not going out, Edgar can continue to live in an apartment or house without outdoor access. He will especially need a stable, comfortable and reassuring environment. Today, Edgar is looking for a calm and caring family who can offer him presence, attention and a secure living environment. With a warm and loving home, he will be able to quickly find his bearings and enjoy a new life in peace.

Edgard a été pris en charge au refuge après le décès de la personne âgée avec laquelle il vivait. Il résidait dans une maison et ne sortait pas, malgré la possibilité de le faire. Après le décès de sa propriétaire, Edgard est malheureusement resté seul dans la maison pendant cinq jours avant d’être pris en charge. Contrairement à un chat très réservé, Edgard est un chat sociable qui semble apprécier la présence de l’humain. Il se montre à l’aise dans les interactions et devrait pouvoir rapidement créer un lien avec sa nouvelle famille. Edgard vivait également avec d’autres chats et la cohabitation se passait bien. Il semble donc être habitué à partager son quotidien avec ses congénères et pourrait apprécier la présence d’un autre chat dans son futur foyer, avec les présentations habituelles. Ayant toujours vécu principalement en intérieur et ne sortant pas, Edgard pourra tout à fait continuer à vivre en appartement ou dans une maison sans accès extérieur. Il aura surtout besoin d’un environnement stable, confortable et rassurant. Aujourd’hui, Edgard recherche une famille calme et bienveillante, qui pourra lui offrir de la présence, de l’attention et un cadre de vie sécurisant. Avec un foyer chaleureux et aimant, il pourra rapidement retrouver ses repères et profiter sereinement d’une nouvelle vie.

About Edgard

What life with Edgard looks like

Edgard is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

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 Edgard, answered.

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