Bourbon

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Bourbon est arrivé d’une autre fourrière, et malgré un passé que nous ne connaissons pas, il se montre aujourd’hui très gentil, affectueux et proche de l’humain. Curieux et actif, Bourbon aime explorer son environnement et partager des moments avec ses humains. Son caractère doux et attachant en fait un compagnon très agréable au quotidien. Bourbon est FIV positif (sida du chat) et souffre également d’un coryza chronique. Malgré ces particularités, il conserve une belle qualité de vie. Son coryza nécessite un suivi vétérinaire régulier et, si besoin, un traitement lors des poussées afin de lui assurer le meilleur confort possible. Avec une vie en intérieur, un environnement calme et des soins adaptés, Bourbon pourra profiter pleinement de sa nouvelle vie.

About Bourbon

What life with Bourbon looks like

Bourbon is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Cholet in Cholet.

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 Bourbon, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bourbon?
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 Bourbon on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bourbon 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Bourbon 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 Bourbon 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 Bourbon 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.
