PHIMA

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

I'm Phima! I'm one of the oldest cats at the shelter: yes, I'm 12 years old! I'm currently being treated for a small ear mite, but I can already leave for my new family with my treatment. It's not serious. I'm a female cat in great demand for cuddles and affection. I would like to leave the shelter quickly so I can flourish more in a calm and warm home. I'm very calm and discreet; you will hardly notice my presence as I am a pleasant companion for life. I love softness, comfort, and tender moments spent with my humans. Adopting me is to be loved for sure, because I only ask for one thing: to receive and give love. So don't hesitate, I'm waiting for you with impatience!

Coucou, moi c'est Phima ! Je fais partie des doyens du refuge : eh oui, j'ai 12 ans ! Je suis actuellement en train d'être soignée pour une petite gale des oreilles, mais je peux déjà partir dans ma nouvelle famille avec mon traitement. Il n'y a rien de grave. Je suis une minette en très grande demande de câlins et d'affection. J'aimerais quitter le refuge rapidement pour pouvoir m'épanouir davantage dans un foyer calme et chaleureux. Je suis très calme et discrète ; vous remarquerez à peine ma présence tant je suis une agréable compagne de vie. J'aime la douceur, le confort et les moments de tendresse passés auprès de mes humains. M'adopter, c'est être aimé à coup sûr, car je ne demande qu'une chose : recevoir et donner de l'amour. Alors, n'hésitez plus, je vous attends avec impatience !

About PHIMA

What life with PHIMA looks like

PHIMA is a extra-large senior mixed breed cat waiting at Coeur de Flandres) in Hazebrouck.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇫🇷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 PHIMA, answered.

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