Adopt Kola

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

I'm named Kola. I used to live with dozens of other cats, all of us confined in a space that had become unsanitary... We thought we were protected from the dangers of the outside world, but it wasn't a life. Thankfully, we were rescued from the shelter, nursed back to health, and pampered, but now we still have to discover family life! I'm naturally shy, having never experienced much before. But with kindness, time, patience, and lots of love, with your help, I can finally flourish and feel secure! I'm making progress every day, I'm curious, chatty, and adorable with my kitten face! I can live in a house or an apartment. Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a cat:

Je m'appelle KOLA. Je vivais avec des dizaines d'autres chats, nous étions tous enfermés dans un espace devenu insalubre... On croyait nous protéger des dangers du monde ainsi, mais ce n'était pas une vie. Nous avons heureusement été récupérés au refuge, remis sur pattes, chouchoutés, mais maintenant, il nous reste à découvrir la vie de famille ! Je suis timide, forcément, n'ayant pas connu grand-chose jusqu'à présent. Mais avec de la douceur, du temps, de la tolérance, et beaucoup d'amour, grâce à vous je pourrai enfin m'épanouir et me rassurer ! Je progresse de jour en jour, je suis curieux, bavard et mignon avec ma bouille de chaton ! Je peux vivre en maison ou en appartement.

About Kola

What life with Kola looks like

Kola is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 Kola, answered.

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