Adopt TIGROU

Male · Young · 1 year

TIGROU spent a significant part of its life outdoors before being taken in by someone who won its trust over time and brought it to us. It is still a bit timid but should relax with a bit of patience and a calm environment.

Read original (fr)

Tigrou a vécu une grande partie de sa vie dehors avant d'être recueilli par une personne qui a réussi à gagner sa confiance avec le temps et qui nous l'a ensuite amené. Il est encore un peu craintif mais devrait se détendre avec un peu de patience et un environnement calme.

About TIGROU

What life with TIGROU looks like

TIGROU is a small young adult cat waiting at Maubert-Fontaine) in Ardennes.

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.

Note from the shelter: Needs patient owner and calm environment due to fearful nature from street life

🇫🇷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.

Frequently asked

Adopting TIGROU, answered.

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