Noisette

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 11 months

Here is Noisette, a tender-eyed kitten of 11 months, who has already faced many trials. Found in the street when she was still a kitten, Noisette was taken in by a kind family of foster care over 6 months ago. Thanks to a lot of patience and love, she has made great progress: she no longer hides, she now lies down next to her foster family, and even eats from their hand! But Noisette remains a fearful cat who still can't be petted. She still needs time and especially a calm and patient home that will accept letting her evolve at her own pace without rushing her. We are looking for a heart family that will understand her sensitivity and will offer her the security and tenderness she has so desperately missed. Without a solution, Noisette risks having to return to the shelter, which would be a huge setback for her. If you think you can give her a chance, a quiet cocoon where she can continue to flourish, contact us by SMS. Even though she doesn't ask for hugs yet, Noisette has so much love to give...

Voici Noisette, une petite chatte de 11 mois au regard tendre, qui a déjà connu bien des épreuves. Trouvée dans la rue alors qu’elle n’était encore qu’un chaton, Noisette a été recueillie par une famille d’accueil bienveillante il y a plus de 6 mois. Grâce à beaucoup de patience et d’amour, elle a fait de grands progrès : elle ne se cache plus, elle s’allonge maintenant à côté de sa famille d’accueil, elle mange même dans la main ! Mais Noisette reste une chatte craintive, qui ne supporte pas encore d’être caressée. Elle a encore besoin de temps et surtout d’un foyer calme et patient, qui acceptera de la laisser évoluer à son rythme, sans la brusquer. Nous cherchons une famille de cœur qui comprendra sa sensibilité et qui lui offrira la sécurité et la douceur dont elle a tant manqué. Sans solution, Noisette risque de devoir revenir au refuge, ce qui serait un grand recul pour elle. Si vous pensez pouvoir lui offrir une chance, un cocon tranquille où elle pourra continuer à s’épanouir, contactez-nous vite par SMS Même si elle ne demande pas encore les câlins, Noisette a tant d’amour à donner… il suffit juste de lui laisser le temps

About Noisette

What life with Noisette looks like

Noisette is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Au Service des Animaux 06 – Refuge de Mougins in France.

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 Noisette, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Noisette?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Au Service des Animaux 06 – Refuge de Mougins handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Noisette on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Noisette if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Au Service des Animaux 06 – Refuge de Mougins 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 Noisette 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 Noisette 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 Au Service des Animaux 06 – Refuge de Mougins early rather than rehoming privately; they know Noisette 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.
