ASHE

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 5 months

A calm, shy little loulou who loves cuddles, but you'll have to make the first move. He's discovering play and seems to enjoy it. Once he trusts you, he loves to fall asleep on your lap while purring. A calm and patient family would be ideal for this little heart who hasn't had an easy start in life. Due to his color (white ears), he's sensitive to the sun, so apartment life would be preferred or he'll need to be protected from sunburn with sunscreen. Unfortunately, he's a carrier of feline AIDS (FIV+), so he can live with another cat carrying the same disease, or alone. Currently in a foster home.

FR·Show original

Petit loulou calme, timide qui adore les caresses, mais ce sera à vous de faire le 1er pas. Il découvre le jeu et semble apprécier. Une fois en confiance il aime s’endormir sur les genoux tout en ronronnant. Une famille calme et patiente serait l’idéal pour ce petit cœur qui n’a pas connu un début de vie facile. A cause de sa couleur (oreilles blanches), il est sensible au soleil, une vie en appartement sera privilégiée ou il faudra le protéger des coups de soleil avec de la crème solaire. Malheureusement il est porteur du sida du chat (fiv+), donc il pourra vivre avec un autre chat porteur de la même maladie, ou bien seul. Actuellement en famille relais.

About ASHE

What life with ASHE looks like

ASHE is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Cholet in Cholet.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 ASHE, answered.

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