MEG

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

MEG – 1 year, Meg is a lovely young cat, found wandering with her sister AMY, now in search of a calm and kind home. Currently, Meg is in foster care with her sister AMY. With a more timid and independent temperament, Meg needs time to build trust. But day by day, she evolves and opens up more to petting, revealing all her sweetness. She loves to play, but at her own pace, and will appreciate an environment respectful of her need for tranquility. Meg will need time to adapt to feel fully secure in her new home. The presence of a well-adjusted cat would be a real plus to help her gain confidence. A dual adoption with her sister Amy is also a possibility. Patience, gentleness, and love will be the keys to seeing Meg flourish fully by your side.

About MEG

What life with MEG looks like

MEG is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Refuge Angoumois in Angoulême.

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 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 MEG, answered.

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