milou

Male · Adult · 6 years

Milou is a 6-year-old adorable cat, also of a shy nature. He will need a little time to adjust to his new environment, but with patience and a lot of tenderness, he will gradually open up ❤️ Milou is FIV positive (often called "cat AIDS"). This means his immune system is a bit weaker, but he can live a long and happy life indoors, with regular veterinary care. FIV is not transmitted to humans ❌ or to other animals, and between cats, transmission mainly occurs through deep bites. He is a little food lover:

Milou est un adorable chat de 6 ans , lui aussi de nature timide. Il aura besoin d’un peu de temps pour s’adapter à son nouvel environnement , mais avec de la patience et beaucoup de douceur, il saura peu à peu s’ouvrir ❤️ Milou est porteur du FIV (souvent appelé “sida du chat”) . Cela signifie que son système immunitaire est un peu plus fragile, mais il peut vivre une vie longue et heureuse en intérieur , avec un suivi vétérinaire classique. Le FIV ne se transmet pas à l’humain ❌ ni aux autres animaux, et entre chats, la transmission se fait principalement par morsures profondes C’est un petit gourmand : il se laisse caresser plus facilement lorsqu’il a de la pâtée, un bon moyen de créer du lien avec lui et de gagner sa confiance Il s’entend bien avec les autres chats , et leur présence pourra l’aider à se sentir plus en sécurité ✨ Il recherche un foyer calme, sans enfants et sans chien

About milou

What life with milou looks like

milou is a adult cat waiting at SPA Compiègne in Compiègne.

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 milou, answered.

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