Hanri

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 10 years

Hanri is a timid cat with no aggression who arrived at the shelter after her owner passed away in a situation of Diogenes syndrome. She has always known only her master and now finds herself in an entirely new environment. Hanri will need time, patience, and gentleness to gain confidence and learn to discover humans at her own pace. Her past explains her current reserve: having never known anyone other than her owner, she must gradually adapt to a new life and new references.

FR·Show original

Les chats signalés en « sauvetage » ont un besoin encore plus urgent de trouver une famille. Cela peut être lié à leur âge, une pathologie particulière ou un mal-être au refuge. Hanri est arrivée au refuge avec plusieurs autres chats suite au décès de son propriétaire, qui vivait dans une situation de syndrome de Diogène. C’est une chatte qui a toujours connu uniquement son maître et qui se retrouve aujourd’hui dans un environnement totalement nouveau. Hanri est une chatte timide, mais sans aucune agressivité. Elle aura besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour prendre confiance et apprendre à découvrir les humains à son rythme. Son passé explique sa réserve actuelle : n’ayant jamais connu d’autres personnes que son propriétaire, elle doit progressivement s’adapter à une nouvelle vie et à de nouveaux repères.

About Hanri

What life with Hanri looks like

Hanri is a 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hanri, answered.

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