Poulette

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 3 years

Poulette est arrivée au refuge à la suite du décès de sa propriétaire. Son fils avait ensuite essayé de l’accueillir chez lui, mais la cohabitation ne s’est malheureusement pas bien passée avec les chats et le chien présents dans le foyer. Poulette présentait du coup des problèmes de malpropreté, ce qui a rendu la situation difficile à gérer au quotidien. C’est une chatte plutôt peureuse au premier abord, qui peut avoir besoin d’un peu de temps pour s’adapter à un nouvel environnement et aux personnes qu’elle ne connaît pas. Une fois qu’elle a pris ses repères et qu’elle se sent en confiance, elle se montre toutefois affectueuse et apprécie le contact avec son humain. Poulette a toujours vécu en appartement et n’a donc pas l’habitude de sortir. Elle pourra continuer à vivre exclusivement en intérieur, dans un environnement calme, stable et rassurant, qui lui permettra de retrouver progressivement ses habitudes. Concernant ses ententes avec les autres animaux, son expérience récente avec les chats et le chien de son ancien foyer ne s’étant pas bien déroulée, elle devra idéalement être accueillie dans un foyer sans autres animaux. Un environnement calme lui permettra également de limiter les sources de stress et de favoriser son adaptation. Aujourd’hui, Poulette recherche une famille patiente et bienveillante, capable de respecter son rythme et de lui laisser le temps nécessaire pour prendre confiance. Avec de la stabilité, de la douceur et beaucoup d’attention, elle pourra retrouver ses repères et révéler toute son affection une fois qu’elle se sentira enfin en sécurité.

About Poulette

What life with Poulette looks like

Poulette is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Perwez) in Sans Collier.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Poulette, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poulette?
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 Poulette on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poulette 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Poulette 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 Poulette 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 Poulette 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.
