A cat welfare association rooted in Courbevoie
Created in 2010, Animacoeur publicly launched its project in Courbevoie on 17 February 2011. Its history page also remembers Mimi, the first cat welcomed into its care facility in May 2015. Volunteers and foster families contribute to the cats’ daily lives, connecting practical work with stray animals to the search for suitable permanent homes.
Two routes for cats receiving help
The association’s work includes trapping stray cats, arranging sterilization, identification and tests, then either returning them to their capture site or finding adoptive homes. These are different responses to different circumstances: protecting a cat outdoors does not automatically mean preparing it for adoption. All of Animacoeur’s adoptions take place within Île-de-France.
The application comes before the meeting
The pre-adoption questionnaire covers household members, time away, holiday arrangements, existing animals and accommodation. Once the application is accepted, meetings are by appointment from Monday to Saturday, starting at 14:00, with the whole family present. The form also asks whether you agree to a home visit before or after adoption.
Send home photographs, but ID only at the specified stage
Attach daylight photographs of windows, shutters and any outdoor area to the questionnaire. These give the team concrete information about the proposed home. A copy of your identification is requested only when the adoption contract is signed at your home; the association explicitly asks you not to send it earlier. Keeping those stages separate helps you prepare the right documents at the right time.
Prepare windows, balconies and terraces
Animacoeur’s home-safety page shows protective installations, including examples that do not require drilling. They provide a starting point for discussing your home and preventing escapes or falls. The association says it has no commercial partnership with the companies listed; discuss a suitable approach with the team based on the actual layout of your property.
Support the cats and contact the team
Resto-Chat collections gather food, while second-hand sales raise support for the association. You can also offer to foster or volunteer. Call 06 51 87 09 77 or email animacoeur@gmail.com. The contact page explains that the Courbevoie registered office receives postal correspondence only. The AnimalProtech map introduces the association; it does not book visits.
