How do I contact the shelter about Murphy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APAA Trégrom handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Murphy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Murphy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APAA Trégrom 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 Murphy 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 Murphy 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 APAA Trégrom early rather than rehoming privately; they know Murphy 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.

Murphy

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

My story: Murphy arrived through the pound. His personality: Murphy is the super cuddly teddy bear! Always ready to get up and say hello! He loves being cuddled and will follow you everywhere in his enclosure to make sure he doesn't miss out on any potential cuddles! He loves rolling on your feet to get attention and that's the method he uses to make sure you can't leave! He's a cat who needs love! A purring machine that will look at you with love. He's also very playful, he loves running after his ball when you throw it or chasing loose strings! In these play moments, he tends to grab your hands to bite, he's a big baby who still has a lot to learn about humans. He loves sleeping stretched out on the ground for optimal comfort!Murphy loves getting his little pat, though he'd rather give you a cuddle! Likes/Dislikes: Mr. loves being the center of attention! He's not okay with other cats or dogs! There should be no young children in the future family!

Mon histoire : Murphy est arrivé par le biais de la fourrière Mon caractère : Murphy c’est le nounours ultra câlin ! Toujours près à se lever pour venir dire bonjour ! Il adore qu’on le câline et nous suivra partout dans son enclos pour ne louper aucun potentiel câlin ! Il adore se rouler sur les pieds pour attirer l’attention et c’est d’ailleurs la méthode qu’il utilise pour ne pas qu’on puisse partir ! C’est un chat qui a besoin d’amour ! Une machine à ronron qui vous regardera avec amour.Également très joueur , il adore courir après sa balle lorsqu’on la lance ou attraper les bouts de ficelle qui traîne ! Dans ces moments de jeux il a tendance à nous attraper les mains pour mordre, c’est un grand bébé qui a encore à apprendre avec les humains.Il aime dormir étalé de tout son long sur le sol , pour un confort optimal !Murphy aime recevoir sa petite pâtée , bien qu’il préférera vous faire des câlins ! J'aime / J'aime pas : Monsieur aime être le centre de l’attention ! Il n’est pas ok avec les chats , ni avec les chiens !Il ne faudra pas d’enfant en bas âge dans la future famille !

About Murphy

What life with Murphy looks like

Murphy is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at APAA Trégrom in France.

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.
