Adopt Sacha

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Sacha lived as a stray wandering in a garden before arriving at the shelter. She is a sociable cat with other cats, but she remains quite shy around humans and will need time and patience to feel confident. She will need access to the outside to fully thrive. Sacha is looking for a calm and kind home, able to offer her security, gentleness, and stability, so that she can gradually open up and peacefully enjoy her new life. Sans Collier is an animal protection association active in Belgium since 1972. Thanks to our two shelters and our social boarding facility, we save more than 1,700 abandoned, mistreated, or lost dogs and cats each year.

Sacha vivait en errance dans un jardin avant d’arriver au refuge. C’est une chatte sociable avec les autres chats, mais elle reste assez peureuse avec l’humain et aura besoin de temps et patience pour se sentir en confiance. Elle aura besoin d’un accès à l’extérieur pour s’épanouir pleinement. Sacha recherche un foyer calme et bienveillant, capable de lui offrir sécurité, douceur et stabilité, afin qu’elle puisse progressivement s’ouvrir et profiter sereinement de sa nouvelle vie. Sans Collier est une association de protection animale active en Belgique depuis 1972. Grâce à nos deux refuges et notre pension sociale, nous sauvons chaque année plus de 1 700 chiens et chats abandonnés, maltraités ou perdus.

About Sacha

What life with Sacha looks like

Sacha 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sacha, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sacha?
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 Sacha on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sacha 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 Sacha 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 Sacha 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 Sacha 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.
