Willow

European Shorthair · Female

I am named Willow and, although I am a little shy at first, I am a sweet and curious cat. I am very playful, though I still prefer to explore everything around me at my own pace. I was entrusted to our shelter after being found wandering, and now I am seeking a calm home where I can flourish. Come meet me! Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a cat:

La belle Willow est arrivée au refuge après avoir été trouvée errante. Elle cherche désormais un foyer calme et des adoptants patients qui lui laisseront découvrir le monde à son rythme. Willow est un peu timide au premier abord, mais une fois en confiance, elle dévoile sa vraie personnalité : une chatte pleine de douceur et de curiosité. Également très joueuse, Willow sera ravie de partager des moments amusants à vos côtés ! Partager cette page sur facebook ou X-twitter Adopter un chat : WILLOW, chat femelle EUROPÉEN de 3 ans

About Willow

What life with Willow looks like

Willow is a small adult european shorthair 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 Willow, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Willow?
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 Willow on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Willow 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 Willow 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 Willow 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 Willow 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.
