Adopt ALASTOR C

Male · Young · 3 years

Alastor arrived with us following a transfer. He lived with about fifteen other cats. He is a sensitive and reserved cat who hasn't yet fully opened up. He will need time to build trust. He can live in an apartment or a house, with or without access to the outdoors. He cannot live in the presence of children. A cat already present at the shelter and comfortable in his surroundings would be a plus for his development. Alastor lived with other cats. We do not know how he gets along with dogs.

Alastor est arrivé chez nous à la suite d'une cession. Il vivait avec une quinzaine d'autres chats. C'est un chat sensible et réservé qui ne se laisse pas encore trop approcher. Il aura besoin de temps pour accorder sa confiance. Il pourra vivre en appartement ou en maison, avec ou sans accès à l'extérieur. Il ne pourra pas vivre au contact d'enfants. Un chat déjà présent au foyer et bien dans ses pattes serait un plus pour son évolution. Alastor vivait avec d'autres chats. Nous ne connaissons pas son entente avec les chiens.

About ALASTOR C

What life with ALASTOR C looks like

ALASTOR C is a young adult cat waiting at SPA Vaux-le-Pénil in Vaux-le-Pénil.

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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting ALASTOR C, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about ALASTOR C?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Vaux-le-Pénil handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw ALASTOR C on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt ALASTOR C if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Vaux-le-Pénil 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is ALASTOR C 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 ALASTOR C 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 Vaux-le-Pénil early rather than rehoming privately; they know ALASTOR C 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
