Guimauve

European Shorthair · Female

I am Guimauve, and you? I was living with too many cats with a lady... It was a bit of a disaster. Since it became unbearable for everyone, we were taken in by the shelter. Now I would like to find a family for myself, with one or two friends, maybe, but not too many, and then be well taken care of for the rest of my life. Do you think that's possible?

Moi, c'est GUIMAUVE, et vous ? Je vivais avec beaucoup trop de chats chez une dame... C'était un peu la chatastrophe. Comme cela devenait invivable pour tout le monde, on nous a recueillis au refuge. Maintenant, j'aimerais bien trouver une famille à moi, avec un ou deux copains, pourquoi pas, mais pas trop, et puis être bien chouchoutée tout le reste de ma vie. C'est possible à votre avis ?

About Guimauve

What life with Guimauve looks like

Guimauve is a small adult european shorthair 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Guimauve, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Guimauve?: 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 Guimauve on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Guimauve 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Guimauve 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 Guimauve 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 Guimauve 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.
