How do I contact the shelter about Quirsh?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Paco Cat handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Quirsh on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Quirsh if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Paco Cat 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 Quirsh 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 Quirsh 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 Paco Cat early rather than rehoming privately; they know Quirsh 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.

Quirsh

Mixed Breed · Female

Quirsh is a little fighter with a big heart. After being found abandoned by the side of a road, left all alone and defenseless, she was lucky enough to cross paths with a kind-hearted person who gave her a second chance. Today, Quirsh has left her sad past behind and reveals a wonderful personality every single day. She’s a lively, sociable, curious, and incredibly easygoing kitty. She loves cuddles and doesn’t hesitate to come and seek affection by rubbing against your hands or legs. With her confident nature and slightly fearless demeanor, Quirsh isn’t afraid of anything! She adapts easily to her surroundings and fully enjoys every moment. Gentle and affectionate, she’d be a perfect match for a family with children. Quirsh also gets along wonderfully with other cats and will bring plenty of tenderness and joy to her new home. Having experienced abandonment, this adorable kitty now deserves a loving family that will provide her with the safety, attention, and love she’s been waiting for so long. Currently in foster care in the La Louvière area—vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and dewormed.

About Quirsh

What life with Quirsh looks like

Quirsh is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Paco Cat in Marcinelle (Charleroi).

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.
