Zag

Mixed Breed · Male

Who am I? After nine years spent outdoors, Zag finally deserves a real home of his own. His profile: – Male cat, 9 years old – Neutered and identified – Primary vaccinations completed – Carrier of calicivirus – Location: Baisieux His story: Zag has always lived on the streets, with other cats. He was the target of stones thrown by some residents of the neighborhood, which is why we took him in. His personality: Very cuddly and affectionate, Zag increasingly enjoys the comforts of indoor life, and is gradually regaining trust in humans, whose beds he now greatly appreciates at bedtime. He gets along well with dogs and children. His health: Zag tests positive for calicivirus, a very common condition among street cats that can be managed well day to day (with a specific diet and veterinary follow-up in case of flare-ups). It can be transmitted to other cats, so a home without cats, or with cats that are already vaccinated, is preferable. He is looking for: A calm and patient home, one that will give him the time to finish his

About Zag

What life with Zag looks like

Zag is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Les Amis d in France.

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 Zag, answered.

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