MACAO

Male · Young · 3 years

MACAO was directly abandoned at our shelter. MACAO is a shy cat looking for gentle and patient adopters who will give him time to adapt at his own pace. MACAO must live indoors, with no outdoor access and no young children. The presence of a well-adjusted first cat (vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered) would be beneficial for his development. MACAO has a heart murmur. Everything will be explained at the shelter. Come meet him soon!

FR·Show original

Macao a été abandonné directement au refuge. Macao est un chat timide qui recherche des adoptants doux et patients qui lui laisseront le temps d'évoluer à son rythme. Macao devra vivre en appartement, sans sortie extérieur et sans jeunes enfants. La présence d'un premier chat bien dans ses patounes (vacciné, identifié et stérilisé) serait un plus pour son bon développement. Macao a un souffle cardiaque. Tout vous sera expliqué au refuge. Venez vite le rencontrer !

About MACAO

What life with MACAO looks like

MACAO is a medium-sized young adult cat waiting at SPA Gennevilliers (Grammont) in Gennevilliers.

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.

Note from the shelter: Heart murmur requiring veterinary monitoring

🇫🇷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 MACAO, answered.

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