Adopt Huguette

Female · Adult · 6 years

Huguette, 6 years old, is a gentle, kind and affectionate little cat. A bit shy at first, she needs time to trust, but once reassured, she becomes very cuddly and endearing. She gets along well with other cats and respectful older children. However, she prefers a home without dogs to remain calm. Huguette has feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), which means her immune system is weaker. She can live a long and happy life with an indoor lifestyle and regular check-ups. FIV does not transmit to humans. Calm and quiet, she loves cozy places and moments of tenderness. She is waiting for a patient and loving family.

About Huguette

What life with Huguette looks like

Huguette is a adult cat waiting at SPA Compiègne in Compiègne.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Huguette, answered.

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