How do I contact the shelter about Maé?

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

Can I adopt Maé if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Perwez) 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 Maé 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 Maé 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 Perwez) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Maé 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.

Maé

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Maé was born outdoors, which explains her great sensitivity and current mistrust of humans. She was then taken in by the our shelter to be secured and accompanied toward a more peaceful life. She is a fearful cat who will need time, patience, and gentleness to learn to trust and evolve at her own pace. With a stable environment that respects her needs, she will gradually gain in confidence. As for her relationships, Maé gets along well with other cats, who can help her feel more secure in her daily life. Accustomed to an outdoor environment, she will need access to the outdoors to fully flourish. Maé is looking for a calm and experienced family willing to offer her the security, respect, and kindness she needs. In return, she will, step by step, discover the serenity of a home life and evolve in confidence.

Maé est née dehors, ce qui explique sa grande sensibilité et sa méfiance actuelle envers l’humain. Elle a ensuite été prise en charge par le refuge afin d’être mise en sécurité et accompagnée vers une vie plus sereine. C’est une chatte peureuse, qui aura besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour apprendre à faire confiance et évoluer à son rythme. Avec un environnement stable et respectueux de ses besoins, elle pourra progressivement gagner en assurance. Concernant ses ententes, Maé s’entend bien avec les autres chats, qui peuvent l’aider à se sentir plus en sécurité au quotidien. Habituée à un environnement extérieur, elle aura besoin d’un accès à l’extérieur pour pouvoir s’épanouir pleinement. Maé recherche une famille calme et expérimentée, prête à lui offrir la sécurité, le respect et la bienveillance dont elle a besoin. En retour, elle pourra, pas à pas, découvrir la sérénité d’une vie de foyer et évoluer en confiance.
