Ruby

Unknown

Ruby, environ 5 ans, a vécu seul pendant ses premières années, avec un humain qui ne s'occupait que très peu de lui. Depuis qu'il a redécouvert le contact avec les humains et les autres chats, Ruby est devenu une vraie boule d'amour, très affectueux. Il aime se lover dans les bras ou se poser sur les genoux pour y faire un petit somme. Il adore jouer avec les copains, et ne peut donc être le seul chat du foyer. Ruby apprécie être dehors pendant de longs moments, un jardin sera donc absolument nécessaire pour son équilibre. Lorsque les beaux jours arrivent, il aime passer la nuit dehors. C’est un peu stressant les premières fois mais on fini par lui faire confiance.

About Ruby

What life with Ruby looks like

Ruby is a adult cat waiting at AnimÉgaux in Paris/Aubervilliers.

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 Ruby, answered.

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