Tigrou 1

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

Tigrou arrived at the shelter with several other cats following the death of his owner, who lived in a situation of Diogenes syndrome. He is a cat that has always known only his master and now finds himself in an entirely new environment. Tigrou is a rather timid cat, but without any malice. He will need a lot of time, patience, and gentleness to gain confidence and learn to discover humans at his own pace. His past explains his current reserve: having never known anyone other than his owner, he must gradually adapt to a new life and new references. His relationships with other animals are not fully known, but he seems to get along well with the other cats, whose presence could help him feel more secure.

Tigrou est arrivé au refuge avec plusieurs autres chats suite au décès de son propriétaire, qui vivait dans une situation de syndrome de Diogène. C’est un chat qui a toujours connu uniquement son maître et qui se retrouve aujourd’hui dans un environnement totalement nouveau. Tigrou est un chat assez peureux, mais sans aucune méchanceté. Il aura besoin de beaucoup de temps, de patience et de douceur pour prendre confiance et apprendre à découvrir les humains à son rythme. Son passé explique sa grande réserve actuelle : n’ayant jamais connu d’autres personnes que son propriétaire, il doit progressivement s’adapter à une nouvelle vie et à de nouveaux repères. Ses ententes avec les autres animaux ne sont pas totalement connues, mais il semble bien s’entendre avec les autres chats, dont la présence pourrait l’aider à se rassurer.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tigrou 1, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tigrou 1?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Perwez) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tigrou 1 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tigrou 1 if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Perwez) 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 Tigrou 1 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 Tigrou 1 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 Perwez) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tigrou 1 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.
