Shalimar

Mixed Breed · Female

I am Shalimar, what a elegant name, isn't it? I am a gentle little shy one, not the type to shine in society and perfume you with my wit! No, I just seek a little tenderness and tranquility, with patient, kind, and benevolent humans who will give me the time to build trust and feel at home! So you'll see how much of a lovebug I am. I need a cozy indoor life, an apartment would be perfect. I generally get along well with other cats, I will be gentle with children, but I do not need a dog.

Je suis SHALIMAR, quel nom élégant, n'est-ce pas ? Je suis une gentille petite timide, moi, pas du genre à vouloir briller en société et vous parfumer de mes mots d'esprit ! Non, moi, je ne cherche qu'un peu de tendresse et de tranquillité, chez des humains patients, doux et bienveillants qui me donneront le temps de prendre confiance et de me sentir chez moi ! Alors vous verrez comme je suis un amour de chattounette. Il me faut une vie casanière, un appartement serait parfait. Je m'entends généralement bien avec les autres chats, je serai douce avec les enfants, mais il ne me faut pas de chien.

About Shalimar

What life with Shalimar looks like

Shalimar is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Shalimar, answered.

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