Merlin

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 3 months

Merlin is a perfect little bundle of joy! This adorable 3-month-old black-and-white kitten is looking for his forever family. Very sociable, cuddly, and full of life, Merlin loves human company and gets along wonderfully with other cats. A big playful fellow, he spends his days running around, exploring, and coming up with new kitten antics! For his well-being and happiness, he’d ideally be adopted into a home where there’s already a young cat to share games, naps, and companionship with. Merlin dreams of having a feline companion by his side to spend happy days together. He can be viewed in Ivry-sur-Seine (94) through the association Adopte un Matou. He is available for adoption: microchipped, primovaccinated (against typhus and coryza), and dewormed (for worms and fleas). His sterilization is mandatory from 6 months of age (this condition is non-negotiable in the adoption contract). Adoption fees apply. Follow-up placement provided. The outdoor areas (windows, balconies, etc.) of his future home must be securely protected—ensuring that the kitten/cat cannot escape or fall from heights (we will reject any applications that do not meet this requirement).

Merlin un petit bout parfait ! Ce joli chaton noir et blanc de 3 mois recherche sa famille pour la vie. Très sociable, câlin et plein de vie, Merlin adore la compagnie des humains et s’entend parfaitement avec ses congénères. Grand joueur, il passe ses journées à courir, explorer et inventer de nouvelles bêtises de chaton ! Pour son équilibre et son bonheur, il serait idéalement adopté dans un foyer où vit déjà un jeune chat avec qui partager jeux, siestes et complicité. Merlin rêve d’un compagnon félin pour couler des jours heureux. Il est visible à Ivry S/Seine (94) sous l’association Adopte un Matou. Il est proposé à l’adoption: identifié (puce électronique), primo-vacciné (typhus/coryza) et vermifugé (vers/puces). Sa stérilisation est obligatoire dès ses 6 mois (clause non négociable du contrat d’adoption). Frais d’adoption. Placement suivi. Les extérieurs (fenêtres, balcons…) de son futur foyer doivent impérativement être sécurisés : empêchant un chaton/chat de s’échapper ou chuter (nous éliminons toutes les demandes ne répondant pas à cette condition).

About Merlin

What life with Merlin looks like

Merlin is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Adopte Un Matou in Maurecourt.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 Merlin, answered.

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