Yax

Mixed Breed · Male

Sweet and affectionate, Yax will happily come to ask for cuddles from his humans. Quite food-loving, he can easily be lured. His missing fingers on his back paw make him a cat with a unique profile. He has a different gait than other cats but moves without any trouble. FIV carrier, he must be the only cat in the home and live exclusively indoors.

YAX est un chat gentil et affectueux qui viendra volontiers réclamer des câlins à ses humains. Plutôt gourmand, il pourra facilement se laisser appâter. Ses doigts manquants à sa patte arrière font de lui un chat au profil unique. Il a une démarche différente des autres chats mais il se déplace sans aucun souci. Porteur du FIV, il devra être le seul chat du foyer et vivre exclusivement en intérieur. Partager cette page sur facebook ou X-twitter Adopter un chat : YAX, chat male EUROPÉEN de 6 ans

About Yax

What life with Yax looks like

Yax 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Yax, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Yax?: 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 Yax on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Yax 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Yax 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 Yax 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 Yax 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.
