Adopt Tallulah

European Shorthair · Female · Senior · 15 years

Tallulah was a stray cat that a man fed every day in his basement. When he had to be placed in a nursing home, he made sure before leaving to find a solution for the 3 cats he had been taking care of for years. That is how Milky, Tallulah and Héra arrived at the association. Tallulah is the wildest of the three. She does not want to be touched and makes it clear. At Felinecity, she can be independent while being safe and receiving everything she needs to live peacefully.

Tallulah était une chatte errante qu’un monsieur nourrissait chaque jour dans sa cave. Lorsque celui-ci a dû être placé en maison de repos, il s’est assuré avant de partir de trouver une solution pour les 3 chats dont il s’occupait depuis des années. C’est ainsi que Milky, Tallulah et Héra sont arrivés à l’association. Tallulah est la plus sauvage des trois. Elle ne veut pas être touchée et le fait bien savoir. À Felinecity, elle peut être indépendante tout en étant en sécurité et en recevant tout ce dont elle a besoin pour vivre sereinement.

About Tallulah

What life with Tallulah looks like

Tallulah is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Les Petits Vieux ASBL in Chièvres.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇧🇪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 Tallulah, answered.

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