ADONIS

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Adonis came to us after a report of abuse. He lived on land with 45 other dogs. He's a shy dog but shows no aggression. Adonis is calm and very endearing. He's house-trained, doesn't bark, can stay alone and is non-destructive. He can live with dogs and cats. Having had a difficult past and many years in the shelter, we hope to finally find him a calm and patient family. A well-balanced dog companion would be preferable to accompany him. Adonis is currently in foster care where he's discovering the joy of having a loving home! He's an adorable dog. Viewings by appointment.

Adonis est un adorable matou provenant de fourrière. Son passe nous est inconnu mais les quelques semaines suivant son arrivée auront été éprouvantes... Très affaibli les premiers temps, Adonis a su trouver la force pour se battre et surmonter la maladie. Aujourd'hui notre discret petit chat profite de la douceur du soleil et apprécie ses instants de sieste en attente de trouver sa famille. S'il peut parfois se montrer sur la réserve, Adonis se montre chaque jour plus curieux et friands de caresses. Adonis attend son foyer depuis un moment déjà... il n'est pas difficile, une maison, un appartement avec ou sans jardin. Peu lui importe tant qu'il pourra profiter de longues heures de sommeils aux côté de Fougas, son compagnon d'infortune. Il pourra côtoyer des enfants, si ceux-ci se montrent respectueux de ses limites. Adoption double avec Fougas. Venez rencontrez notre petite douceur, il n'attend que vous !

About ADONIS

What life with ADONIS looks like

ADONIS is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Vitré in Vitre.

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.

Note from the shelter: History of abuse and neglect, requires patient family and preferably another calm dog companion

🇫🇷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 ADONIS, answered.

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