Nymphali

European Shorthair · Female

Hello, I'm Nymphalie! I was very sick, but thanks to the wonderful care, patience, and love from those who took care of me, I'm doing very well now! I'm cured! I still have a bit of apprehension with humans because I often think they're giving me medicine (medications aren't exactly my favorite...), but with a little patience and a lot of gentleness, I would be delighted to share the rest of my life with you. I'm really not shy, just a bit timid. Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a cat:

Bonjour, je suis Nymphalie ! J'ai été très malade, mais grâce aux soins prodigieux, à la patience et à l'amour de celles qui se sont occupées de moi, je vais très bien maintenant ! Je suis guérie ! J'ai encore un peu d'appréhension avec les humains car je pense souvent que c'est pour me donner des médicaments (ce n'est pas tellement bon les médicaments...), mais avec un peu de patience et beaucoup de douceur, je serais ravie de partager tout le reste de ma vie avec vous. Je ne suis vraiment pas farouche, juste un peu timide. Partager cette page sur facebook ou X-twitter Adopter un chat : NYMPHALI, chat femelle EUROPÉEN de 2 ans

About Nymphali

What life with Nymphali looks like

Nymphali is a small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Nymphali, answered.

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