Adopt ALPHONSE

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

ALPHONSE is a well-behaved kitty on his paws, though he remains quite shy. He loves to play and enjoys the company of other cats, especially his buddy Black Jack. He's also quite the gourmet, especially when it comes to lickable liquid treats. ALPHONSE is not at all aggressive and in his head, he's still a big baby. ALPHONSE has never known the outdoors and doesn't beg to go out. The ideal family for ALPHONSE is a gentle, patient, loving, and playful one. ALPHONSE arrived at the shelter as a kitten with his mother Alice and his brother Gedeon. His brother and mother had the good fortune of finding a family, but not ALPHONSE, who, being more reserved, did not have the chance for a family to offer him a home for life! Estimated birth date: 26/04/2022. Arrived at the shelter on: 02/06/2022. Vaccination: Vaccinated TCL. Identification: Chipped with an electronic microchip. Adopted on 20/04/2026 with his buddy BLACK JACK!!!

ALPHONSE est un chat bien dans ses coussinets même s’il reste assez craintif. Il aime jouer et aime la compagnie des autres chats surtout son copain Black Jack. Il est aussi très gourmand surtout de friandises liquides à lécher. ALPHONSE n’est pas du tout agressif et dans sa tête c’est encore un gros bébé. ALPHONSE ne connait pas l’extérieur et ne réclame pas à sortir. La famille idéale pour ALPHONSE est une famille douce, patiente, aimante et joueuse. ALPHONSE est arrivé chaton au refuge avec sa mère Alice et son frère Gedeon. Son frère et sa mère ont eu la chance de trouver une famille mais pas ALPHONSE qui sur la réserve n’a pas eu la chance qu’une famille lui offre sa maison pour la vie !

About ALPHONSE

What life with ALPHONSE looks like

ALPHONSE is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Chat Quiberon in Quiberon.

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 ALPHONSE, answered.

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