Bao

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Bao is a confident kitten who knows when he wants cuddles (guaranteed purring machine) and when he doesn't. Given his size compared to his brothers, he should grow quite large. Clever, he won't hesitate to snack on the dry kibble if his bowl is empty! He's playful and very alert. He's a big bunny buddy who lives in his foster family. He's okay with cats, dogs, bunnies, and kids. Bao is in foster care and available by appointment.

FR·Show original

Bao est un chaton sur de lui qui sait quand il veut des câlins (machine à ronron assuré) et quand il n'en veut pas. Il devrait devenir très grand au vu de sa taille par rapport à ses frères. Malin, il n'hésitera pas à grignoter le paquet de croquettes si il n'en a plus dans sa gamelle ! Il est joueur et très alerte. C'est un grand copain du lapin qui il vit dans sa famille relais. Il est OK chats, chiens, lapins et enfants. Bao est en famille relais et visible sur rendez-vous.

About Bao

What life with Bao looks like

Bao is a extra-large puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Château-d'Olonne.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Bao, answered.

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