How do I contact the shelter about Figaro?

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 Figaro on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Figaro 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 Figaro 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 Figaro 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 Figaro 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.

Figaro

Mixed Breed · Male

Figaro is the kind of cat you might not notice at first glance: not the most demonstrative or demanding... and yet, the one you fall in love with most easily. Affectionate and gourmet, he knows how to appreciate the good things in life: a timely stroke, a well-filled bowl, a cozy nook all his own. For that is his defining trait: Figaro needs space to express himself. In an environment where other cats take up too much space, he steps back, retreating and letting others take the lead. Discreet by prudence rather than nature, he simply waits for the attention to finally land on him to reveal his full tenderness. He will thrive fully in a home where he can be seen, heard, and cherished without having to fight for existence. Alone or with other calm, non-invasive animals of the same species, he will find his place as long as one is given to him. If you're looking for a discreet but deeply endearing companion, a cat who will choose you sincerely as soon as he feels safe, Figaro is waiting for you.

Figaro, c'est le genre de chat qu'on remarque moins au premier abord : pas le plus démonstratif, pas le plus envahissant... et pourtant celui dont on tombe le plus facilement amoureux. Câlin et gourmand, il sait apprécier les bonnes choses de la vie : une caresse au bon moment, une gamelle bien garnie, un coin douillet rien que pour lui. Car c'est là tout son trait de caractère : Figaro a besoin d'espace pour s'exprimer. Dans un environnement où les autres chats prennent trop de place, il s'efface, se met en retrait, et laisse passer. Discret par prudence plutôt que par nature, il n'attend qu'une chose : que l'attention se pose enfin sur lui pour révéler toute sa tendresse. Il s'épanouira pleinement dans un foyer où il pourra être vu, entendu et choyé sans avoir à se battre pour exister. Seul ou avec des congénères calmes et peu envahissants, il saura trouver sa place du moment qu'on lui en laisse une. Si vous cherchez un compagnon discret mais profondément attachant, un chat qui vous choisira avec sincérité dès qu'il se sentira en sécurité, Figaro n'attend que ça.

About Figaro

What life with Figaro looks like

Figaro is a small adult mixed breed 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.
