MARIE A17576

Female · Adult · 5 years

Marie is a 5-year-old very shy and reserved female cat. She needs time and patience to feel secure, but when she gains confidence, she can be gentle and affectionate, appreciating calm and tender moments. Marie gets along well with other cats and can live with calm children who respect her pace and sensitivity. However, she cannot cohabitate with dogs. Marie is FIV positive (feline AIDS), which weakens her immune system, meaning she must live indoors and receive regular veterinary care. FIV cats can live many years with good quality of life. The virus is not transmissible to humans or other animals besides cats. She seeks a gentle and patient home where she can flourish at her own pace.

About MARIE A17576

What life with MARIE A17576 looks like

MARIE A17576 is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at SPA Orgeval in Orgeval.

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: FIV positive (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) - requires indoor living and regular 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 MARIE A17576, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about MARIE A17576?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Orgeval handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw MARIE A17576 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt MARIE A17576 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Orgeval 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 MARIE A17576 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 MARIE A17576 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 Orgeval early rather than rehoming privately; they know MARIE A17576 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.
