Simon

Mixed Breed · Male

Simon est de ces chats qui ont tant d’amour à offrir… Un compagnon doux, attachant et profondément gentil, qui saura apporter beaucoup de bonheur dans un foyer calme et bienveillant. Ce magnifique chat noir et blanc adore les moments de complicité avec l’humain. Quand il est heureux, il vous le montre à sa façon : de jolies petites patounes dans le vide avec ses grandes pattes adorables, des roulades sur le dos pour vous dévoiler son petit ventre qu’il aime tant faire caresser… Des instants simples, mais remplis de douceur. Simon apprécie les câlins et la présence de sa famille. Il aime les relations basées sur la confiance et la tendresse, ces petits moments du quotidien où un regard, une caresse ou une présence à ses côtés suffisent à le rendre heureux. C’est un chat qui s’épanouira pleinement dans un environnement paisible, auprès de personnes douces et attentionnées, prêtes à lui offrir tout l’amour qu’il mérite. Une famille sans jeunes enfants conviendrait davantage à son tempérament délicat. Avec les autres chats, Simon aura besoin d’un temps d’adaptation pour trouver ses repères, mais il saura apprécier une cohabitation faite de douceur et de respect. Simon ne cherche pas seulement une maison… Il cherche sa famille, celle qui prendra soin de lui, qui partagera ses petits bonheurs et qui découvrira chaque jour un peu plus le merveilleux compagnon qu’il est. En famille d’accueil dans la région de Houdeng Aimeries. Castré, Vacciné, Pucé, Déparasité

About Simon

What life with Simon looks like

Simon is an 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Simon, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Simon?: 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 Simon on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Simon 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Simon 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 Simon 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 Simon 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.
