Adopt ASTOR

Male · Adult · 6 years

Hi, I'm Astor. I came to the shelter because I was found. I can be shy when I don't know someone. So give me some time to get to know you. I really like pets, that's a nice thing I discovered here. But sometimes I don't want them anymore. Yeah, I'm still a cat and let's not forget that it's me who decides. I would like to have a space where I can thrive in my new home. I am available for adoption in SOS because I tested positive for FIV and we also noticed that my kidneys are tired. So I need treatment and special food for life. It's true that I'm not as looked at as a cat without health issues. But I also have the right to have a family that deserves me. I hope to find a home quickly and not stay here for too long. So come meet me soon.

Salut, moi c'est Astor. Je suis arrivé au refuge car j'ai été trouvé. J'aime les caresses, ça c'est un truc chouette que j'ai découvert ici car à mon arrivée j'étais très timide. Mais des fois il m'arrive de ne plus en vouloir. Hé oui je reste quand même un chat et n'oublions pas que c'est moi qui décide. J'aimerai bien avoir un espace où je pourrai m'épanouir dans mon nouveau foyer. Je suis adoptable en SOS car j'ai été testé positif FIV et on s'est aperçu également que mes reins étaient fatigués. Du coup, j'ai besoin d'un traitement et de croquettes spécifiques à vie. C'est sûr que je ne suis pas regardé autant qu'un chat qui n'a pas de soucis de santé. Mais moi aussi j'ai le droit d'avoir une famille qui me mérite. J'espère trouver rapidement et ne pas rester ici en module pendant longtemps. Alors venez vite me rencontrer!

About ASTOR

What life with ASTOR looks like

ASTOR is a adult cat waiting at SPA La Roche-sur-Yon in Roche Sur Yon.

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 ASTOR, answered.

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