Stockholm

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Stockholm est un beau mâle noir d’environ 5 ans, arrivé au refuge dans le cadre d’une saisie administrative. Derrière son regard encore méfiant se cache un chat sensible qui a besoin de temps, de douceur et surtout d’un environnement calme pour reprendre confiance. Très timide au départ, Stockholm aura besoin d’une famille patiente qui respectera son rythme et lui laissera le temps de s’adapter. Il peut vivre avec d’autres chats et, n’ayant jamais été habitué à sortir, il pourra tout à fait s’épanouir en appartement. Pour son bien-être, un foyer sans enfants de moins de 10 ans et avec peu d’agitation sera privilégié. Stockholm présente actuellement de la malpropreté. Il a des antécédents de giardiose. Une adoption en connaissance de cause, auprès de personnes prêtes à l’accompagner avec patience, lui offrirait une véritable seconde chance. Frais d'adoption : 185 euros (comprenant identification, stérilisation, primo-vaccination et déparasitage). L'adoption est un acte réfléchi qui implique des responsabilités sur le long terme. Le permis de détention d'un animal est obligatoire pour toute adoption.

About Stockholm

What life with Stockholm looks like

Stockholm is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA La Louvière in Louviere.

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 Stockholm, answered.

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