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.

Gamin 1

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 8 years

Gamin has lived primarily outdoors with several other cats and has been cared for by an elderly person for about ten years. Unfortunately, she fell ill and was no longer able to continue caring for him. Gamin has therefore joined the shelter in order to receive new care and find a home. He is a cat who has known a long life outdoors and can be a bit fearful, especially when he discovers new people or a new environment. He will need time, gentleness and patience to gain confidence and feel fully safe. Accustomed to living with other cats for many years, Gamin is comfortable with his fellow cats. He could therefore share his daily life with another cat, with gradual introductions. On the other hand, we do not yet know his compatibility with dogs. Despite his past mainly focused on the outdoors, Gamin will now have to live without access to the outdoors. He will therefore need a secure, quiet and sufficiently enriched indoor environment to allow him to gradually regain his bearings and adapt to this new way of life.

FR·Show original

Gamin vivait principalement dehors avec plusieurs autres chats et était pris en charge depuis une dizaine d’années par une personne âgée qui s’occupait de lui et veillait à ses besoins. Malheureusement, celle-ci est tombée malade et n’était plus en mesure de continuer à s’occuper de lui. Gamin a donc rejoint le refuge afin de pouvoir bénéficier d’une nouvelle prise en charge et trouver un foyer. C’est un chat qui a connu une longue vie en extérieur et qui peut se montrer un peu peureux, notamment lorsqu’il découvre de nouvelles personnes ou un nouvel environnement. Il aura besoin de temps, de douceur et de patience pour prendre confiance et se sentir pleinement en sécurité. Habitué à vivre avec d’autres chats depuis de nombreuses années, Gamin est à l’aise avec ses congénères. Il pourrait donc partager son quotidien avec un autre chat, avec des présentations progressives. En revanche, nous ne connaissons pas encore ses ententes avec les chiens. Malgré son passé principalement tourné vers l’extérieur, Gamin devra désormais vivre sans accès à l’extérieur. Il aura donc besoin d’un environnement intérieur sécurisé, calme et suffisamment enrichi pour lui permettre de retrouver progressivement ses repères et de s’adapter à ce nouveau mode de vie.
