Pineapple

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 4 years

Pineapple arrived at the our shelter after living as a stray in a garden. Left to her own devices, she had to learn to fend for herself before finally being brought to safety. With humans, Pineapple remains somewhat wary. She needs time, patience, and gentleness to learn to trust and open up gradually. She is a social cat with other cats, enjoying their company and able to share her daily life with balanced cats of the same species. Accustomed to outdoor life, Pineapple will need secure access to the outdoors to be able to explore, expend energy, and fully flourish. Pineapple is seeking a calm, patient, and kind home ready to offer her the stability and security she needs to evolve at her own pace. In return, she will gradually open up and bring a beautiful, discreet but endearing presence to her future family.

FR·Show original

Pineapple est arrivée au refuge après avoir vécu en errance dans un jardin. Livrée à elle-même, elle a dû apprendre à se débrouiller seule avant d’être finalement mise en sécurité. Avec l’humain, Pineapple reste toutefois assez craintive. Elle a besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour apprendre à faire confiance et s’ouvrir progressivement. C’est une chatte sociable avec les autres chats, qui apprécie leur présence et pourra partager son quotidien avec des congénères équilibrés. Habituée à la vie en extérieur, Pineapple aura besoin d’un accès sécurisé à l’extérieur afin de pouvoir explorer, se dépenser et s’épanouir pleinement. Pineapple recherche un foyer calme, patient et bienveillant, prêt à lui offrir la stabilité et la sécurité dont elle a besoin pour évoluer à son rythme. En retour, elle pourra, petit à petit, s’ouvrir et apporter une belle présence discrète mais attachante à sa future famille.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pineapple, answered.

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