Koda

European Shorthair · Male

Hello, I'm Koda! I was found with my brothers and sisters at the bottom of a burned-out garage... But nothing serious, not a single whisker burned, thanks to the firefighters. Now, the only warmth I need is that of a loving home! I'm a cat who adores cuddles... to the point that I might even drool from happiness. I also enjoy being brushed and I'm always enthusiastic about snuggling up on a sofa with humans. Come meet me soon! Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a cat:

Bonjour, je suis KODA ! J'ai été retrouvé avec mes frères et soeurs au fond d'un garage incendié... Mais rien de grave, pas une seule moustache de brulée, merci aux pompiers. Maintenant, la seule chaleur dont j'ai besoin, c'est celle d'un foyer aimant ! Je suis un chat qui adoooore les câlins... à tel point qu'il peut m'arriver d'en baver de plaisir. J'aime aussi que l'on me brosse et je suis toujours enthousiaste à l'idée de me lover sur un canapé, auprès des humains. Venez vite me rencontrer !

About Koda

What life with Koda looks like

Koda 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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Koda, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Koda?
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 Koda on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Koda 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Koda 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 Koda 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 Koda 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.
