How do I contact the shelter about TIMMY?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Refuge Angoumois handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw TIMMY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt TIMMY if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Refuge Angoumois 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 TIMMY 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 TIMMY 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 Refuge Angoumois early rather than rehoming privately; they know TIMMY 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.

TIMMY

Male · Adult · 8 years

TIMMY – 9 years old, TIMMY is a beautiful 9-year-old green-eyed tabby cat who has spent 8 years at the shelter. This is all he has known, and it has made him very timid. TIMMY is a sensitive cat who will need a patient, gentle, and understanding family willing to give him the time he needs to feel safe. He may not immediately seek affection, but with gentleness and time, he can gradually learn to trust. A calm home, without too much excitement, would be ideal for him to flourish and finally experience a peaceful life away from the shelter. After so many years of waiting, TIMMY deserves his chance to experience the warmth of a real home. With the right person, he can finally settle down and enjoy a peaceful and reassuring retirement. TIMMY has a dental sensitivity.

Timmy – 9 ans, Timmy est un beau chat tigré aux yeux verts de 9 ans, dont 8 années passées au refuge. Cette vie ici c’est tout ce qu’il a connu et cela l’a rendu très craintif. Timmy est un chat sensible qui aura besoin d’une famille patiente douce et compréhensive, prête à lui laisser le temps dont il a besoin pour se sentir en sécurité. Il ne viendra peut-être pas immédiatement chercher les caresses, mais avec de la douceur et du temps, il pourra peu à peu apprendre à faire du confiance. Un foyer calme, sans trop d’agitation serait idéal pour lui permettre de s’épanouir et de découvrir enfin une vie paisible loin du refuge. Après tant d’années d’attente, Timmy mérite lui aussi sa chance de connaitre la douceur d’un vrai foyer. Avec la bonne personne, il pourra enfin poser ses valises et vivre une retraite tranquille et rassurante. Timmy présente une sensibilité bucco-dentaire.

About TIMMY

What life with TIMMY looks like

TIMMY is a adult cat waiting at Refuge Angoumois in Angoulême.

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 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.
