Adopt Marcelle

Female

Marcelle arrived at the shelter with her very elderly friend, following the death of her owner. Her widowed owner, who had never cared for goats, did not wish to keep them despite the advanced age of one of them. We know little about the past of Marcelle and the treatment she received during her life, but at the shelter, she is very fearful. The farther she is from people, the better she fares. She remains deeply bonded to her friend with whom she arrived.

Marcelle est arrivée au refuge avec son amie très âgée, suite au décès de sa propriétaire. Son veuf, qui ne s'était jamais occupé des chèvres, n'a pas souhaité les garder malgré l'âge très avancé de l'une d'elles. Nous connaissons peu du passé de Marcelle et du traitement qu'elle a reçu durant sa vie, mais au refuge, elle est très peureuse. Au plus loin elle se trouve des gens, au mieux elle se porte. Elle reste profondément liée à son amie avec qui elle est arrivée. Rue du Haut Aulnoy n°29, 7822 Meslin l'Evêque

About Marcelle

What life with Marcelle looks like

Marcelle is a adult animal waiting at Animaux en Péril ASBL in Belgium.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Marcelle far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇧🇪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 Marcelle, answered.

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