How do I contact the shelter about Illy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Adopte Un Matou handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Illy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Illy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Adopte Un Matou 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 Illy 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 Illy 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 Adopte Un Matou early rather than rehoming privately; they know Illy 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.

Adopt Illy

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

Illy is a young, friendly female cat who gets along with everyone. At two years old, Illy is an adorable, affectionate, playful, and tender cat. She loves human company and will readily come to you for cuddles with her cute little headbutts that melt everyone’s hearts. Sociable and curious, she shows interest quickly when meeting someone. She’s a true little gem: even when playing or venting energy, she never claws. Illy also enjoys quiet moments and loves having her favorite spots to sleep peacefully and observe her surroundings in serene comfort. She gets along well with other cats and will perfectly integrate into a household already accompanied by a feline companion. Illy is available for adoption in the 20th arrondissement of Paris under the Adopte Un Matou association. She is offered for adoption: microchipped, spayed, tested negative for FIV/Felv, primovaccinated (typhus/cat flu), and dewormed (parasites/fleas). Adoption fee: 180 €. Follow-up placement. The exteriors (windows, balconies, etc.) of her future home must be securely enclosed: preventing a kitten/cat from escaping or falling (we reject all applications not meeting this condition).

About Illy

What life with Illy looks like

Illy is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Adopte Un Matou in Maurecourt.

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.
