Adopt Maé

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Maé was born outdoors, which explains her great sensitivity. She is a fearful cat who will need time, patience, and gentleness to feel secure and evolve at her own pace. She gets along well with other cats, which can help her feel more assured in her daily life. Maé will need access to the outdoors to fully flourish. She is looking for a calm and experienced home that can offer her security, respect, and kindness, so that she can gradually gain confidence and enjoy a more peaceful life.

Read original (fr)

Maé est née dehors, ce qui explique sa grande sensibilité. C’est une chatte peureuse, qui aura besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour se sentir en confiance et évoluer à son rythme. Elle s’entend bien avec les autres chats, ce qui peut l’aider à se rassurer au quotidien. Maé aura besoin d’un accès à l’extérieur pour s’épanouir pleinement. Elle recherche un foyer calme et expérimenté, capable de lui offrir sécurité, respect et bienveillance, afin qu’elle puisse progressivement prendre confiance et profiter d’une vie plus sereine.

About Maé

What life with Maé looks like

Maé is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Maé, answered.

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.
