How do I contact the shelter about SIMBA?

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

Can I adopt SIMBA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Gamelles Sans Frontière 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 SIMBA 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 SIMBA 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 Gamelles Sans Frontière early rather than rehoming privately; they know SIMBA 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.

Adopt SIMBA

Mixed Breed · Unknown

We present SIMBA, who is 5 years old. SIMBA is a sweet, extremely affectionate, and very talkative cat. He will need a lot of attention. He is close to humans and will follow you wherever you go. He will also let you know his disagreement when you start petting him. He knows how to be alone very well. He is very curious and loves to inspect his environment on his hind legs. However, he remains anxious and fearful, so we will avoid families with young children. It will take some time before he feels completely at ease and can enjoy his petting. SIMBA appreciates quiet and isolated corners without your presence. But he won't hesitate to come out if you call to him. SIMBA is a very endearing cat who will require your time. SIMBA is identified, sterilized, primovaccinated, dewormed, and deparasitized. FIV/FELV tested negative. Adoption fee: 280€. SIMBA is available in Houilles (78)

About SIMBA

What life with SIMBA looks like

SIMBA is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Gamelles Sans Frontière in Île-de-France.

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.
