Abyss

Mixed Breed · Male

Je m’appelle Abyss, arrivé au refuge car trouvé errant par des particuliers et soigné chez le vétérinaire car en piteux état, malheureusement jamais réclamé depuis. Je suis très méfiant depuis mon arrivée au refuge et j’ai tendance à me lover au soleil dans mon coin. Avec le temps je commence à me laisser approcher, appréciant les carresses si j’en ai envie car j’ai mon petit caractère. Il me faudra un peu de temps pour que je reprenne confiance et vienne chercher les carresses. A la recherche d’un foyer patient, doux et calme avec un extérieur, qui saura prespecter ma tranquilité et me laisser le temps nécessaire pour me rassurer. A bientôt pour une visite !

About Abyss

What life with Abyss looks like

Abyss is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Lagord / La Rochelle in Lagord.

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 Abyss, answered.

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