GOOSE

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 5 months

Goose est un adorable petit gars de 5 mois, actuellement en famille d’accueil aux côtés de son frère Duckie. De nature calme et réservée, Goose est un chaton qui apprécie la tranquillité et qui aura besoin d’un peu de douceur pour se sentir pleinement en confiance. Mais ne vous fiez pas à son petit côté discret ! Goose est aussi câlin et joueur. Il apprécie les moments de tendresse autant que les petites séances de jeu, une fois suffisamment à l’aise. Goose recherchera une famille douce et bienveillante, prête à respecter son rythme et à lui offrir un environnement rassurant dans lequel il pourra s’épanouir sereinement. Goose devra impérativement rester en intérieur jusqu’à sa stérilisation. Celle-ci est obligatoire à l’âge de 6 mois pour tout chaton adopté au refuge et reste à la charge de l’adoptant.

About GOOSE

What life with GOOSE looks like

GOOSE is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Refuge Angoumois in Angoulême.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting GOOSE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about GOOSE?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Refuge Angoumois handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw GOOSE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt GOOSE if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Refuge Angoumois 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 GOOSE 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 GOOSE 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 Refuge Angoumois early rather than rehoming privately; they know GOOSE 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.
