BILLIE

Border Collie · Female · Adult · 4 years

Notre belle BILLIE est arrivée au refuge en provenance de la fourrière, encore une histoire de vie tristement banale... La demoiselle avait une famille, mais son propriétaire a quitté ce monde, sans que personne n'assume BILLIE ensuite... Nos collègues de la fourrière confirme qu'elle est perturbée par la situation. Elle se montre très câline toutefois, mais ne vient pas d'elle-même (elle sait jouer de son charme pour obtenir des caresses). Venez donc faire sa connaissance !

About BILLIE

What life with BILLIE looks like

BILLIE is a adult border collie cat waiting at SPA Le Mans (Yvré-L'Évêque).

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 BILLIE, answered.

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