Vivi

Mixed Breed · Male

Vivi is a shy and reserved cat who will need time to build trust and accept petting. Behind this discretion lies a sensitive companion who will thrive in a calm and reassuring environment. By nature independent, Vivi particularly enjoys access to the outdoors and loves to explore. A home with a garden will therefore be essential for its well-being. He gets along well with other animals of the same species but does not seek the company of dogs. A peaceful home with calm children who respect his pace will allow him to adapt smoothly to his new life. With patience and kindness, Vivi can gradually find his bearings and flourish fully within a caring family. Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopter un chat :

Vivi est un chat timide et réservé, qui aura besoin de temps pour accorder sa confiance et accepter les caresses. Derrière cette discrétion se cache un compagnon sensible, qui évoluera positivement dans un environnement calme et rassurant. De nature indépendante, Vivi apprécie particulièrement l'accès à l'extérieur et aime partir en exploration. Une maison avec jardin sera donc indispensable à son bien-être. Il s'entend bien avec ses congénères, mais ne recherche pas la compagnie des chiens. Un foyer paisible, avec des enfants calmes et respectueux de son rythme, lui permettra de s'adapter sereinement à sa nouvelle vie. Avec de la patience et de la bienveillance, Vivi pourra progressivement trouver ses repères et s'épanouir pleinement au sein d'une famille attentionnée.

About Vivi

What life with Vivi looks like

Vivi is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Vivi, answered.

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