Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 5 months

The kitten was found by one of our former volunteers in their garden when it was about 1 month old and then kept to socialize it while we could take care of it. She is kind but still a bit disturbed by the change and will need time and patience to adapt.

About PIKOLA

What life with PIKOLA looks like

PIKOLA is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Maubert-Fontaine) in Ardennes.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting PIKOLA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about PIKOLA?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Maubert-Fontaine) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw PIKOLA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt PIKOLA if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Maubert-Fontaine) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is PIKOLA 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 PIKOLA 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 Maubert-Fontaine) early rather than rehoming privately; they know PIKOLA 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.
