PITCHOUNETTE

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 7 years

PITCHOUNETTE is a very charming and playful cat who knows how to make herself understood. She is quiet and reserved, so she will need a calm environment to feel at ease. It will take her a few days to settle in, get used to her new home, and open up to her humans. Affectionate in her own way, she will come looking for your presence (and purr with pleasure by your side) and will seek some petting, but big cuddles are not her thing. However, once she feels fully at home, you can give her more regular cuddles. She also loves to explore every nook and cranny of her environment and will need access to the outdoors to satisfy her curiosity (at minimum, a secure balcony). We do not know her interactions with other cats of the same species, and we are looking for a family that is present enough on a daily basis. Come meet PITCHOUNETTE in her foster family in Broons (22).

FR·Show original

Pitchounette est une chatte très attachante et rigolote qui sait très bien se faire comprendre. Tranquille et réservée, elle aura besoin d'un environnement calme pour se sentir en confiance. Il lui faudra quelques jours pour prendre ses marques, s'habituer à son nouveau lieu de vie et s'ouvrir à ses humains. Affectueuse à sa manière, elle viendra chercher votre présence (et en ronronnera de plaisir à vos côtés) et quelques caresses mais les gros câlins c'est pas son truc. Une fois pleinement en confiance cependant vous pourrez la papouiller plus régulièrement. Elle adore aussi explorer les moindres recoins de son environnement et aura besoin d'un accès extérieur pour assouvir sa curiosité (à minima un balcon sécurisé) Nous ne connaissons pas ses ententes avec ses congénères. Et nous lui cherchons une famille assez présente au quotidien. Venez rencontrer Pitchounette dans sa famille d'accueil à Broons (22)

About PITCHOUNETTE

What life with PITCHOUNETTE looks like

PITCHOUNETTE is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Moustaches et Compagnie in moustaches et compagnie.

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 PITCHOUNETTE, answered.

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