Adopt Mamour

European Shorthair · Male · Senior · 12 years

Mamour is a "little young one" who had a troubled start in life! Serge took care of him after he was hit by a car. We then found his owners. A year later, they abandoned him because he "marked". He ended up with one of our volunteers... who tried to find him a family... we took that as a sign from destiny, Mamour was meant to live with us!

Read original (fr)

Mamour est un « petit jeune » qui a eu un début de vie chahuté ! Serge l'a d'abord pris en charge alors qu'il venait d'être percuté par une voiture. Nous avons ensuite retrouvé ses maîtres. Un an plus tard, ils l'ont abandonné parce qu'il « marquait ». Il s'est retrouvé chez une de nos bénévoles ... qui a tenté de lui trouver une famille ... nous avons pris cela comme un signe du destin, Mamour devait vivre chez nous !

About Mamour

What life with Mamour looks like

Mamour is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Les Petits Vieux ASBL in Chièvres.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇧🇪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 Mamour, answered.

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