How do I contact the shelter about Orak?

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 Orak on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Orak 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 Orak 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 Orak 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 Orak 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.

Orak

European Shorthair · Female

Orak did not always have the life she deserved. Long confined to herself in deplorable conditions, without care or hygiene, surrounded by other animals in the same situation, she experienced some very dark days. Today, pampered by the FBB, she is doing well and is ready to turn a definitive page. What Orak now wishes for is to discover the real life: that of a loved cat, in a family all her own. She adores cuddles and moments of tenderness, but on her terms and when it suits her. Her little personality is part of her charm, and she will know how to make it understood with elegance! To flourish fully, Orak will need an experienced cat home, calm and kind, with access to a garden. A home without other animals and without young children will be essential to offer her the serenity she deserves. Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a cat:. This animal needs to be the only pet in the home.

Orak n'a pas toujours eu la vie qu'elle méritait. Longtemps livrée à elle-même dans des conditions déplorables, sans soins ni hygiène, entourée d'autres animaux dans la même situation, elle a connu des jours bien sombres. Aujourd'hui chouchoutée par la FBB, elle va bien et est prête à tourner définitivement la page. Ce qu'Orak souhaite désormais, c'est découvrir la vraie vie : celle d'une chatte aimée, dans une famille rien qu'à elle. Elle adore les câlins et les moments de tendresse, mais à sa façon et quand bon lui semble. Son petit caractère fait partie de son charme, et elle saura le faire comprendre avec élégance ! Pour s'épanouir pleinement, Orak aura besoin d'un foyer expérimenté avec les chats, calme et bienveillant, avec accès à un jardin. Un foyer sans autres animaux et sans jeunes enfants sera indispensable pour lui offrir la sérénité qu'elle mérite.

About Orak

What life with Orak looks like

Orak 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.
