Adopt Britannia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Bonjour, moi c'est Britannia ! I am recently arrived from pound, so my uncles and aunts are still getting to know me. I was probably a stray cat all my life. So for now, humans, I don't know them too much... and they scare me very very much! I am therefore looking for someone patient who will learn to gain my trust, who will know how to respect my limits and gradually show me the benefits of family life. If you think you can offer this, don't hesitate to come meet me at the shelter! Here are some photos and videos of me:

Bonjour, moi c'est Britannia ! Je suis récemment arrivée de fourrière, alors mes tontons et mes tatas apprennent encore à me connaître. J'ai sûrement été une minette errante toute ma vie. Alors pour l'instant, les humains, je ne connais pas trop... et ils me font très très peur ! Je cherche donc quelqu'un de patient qui apprendra à me mettre en confiance, qui saura respecter mes limites et me faire découvrir progressivement les bienfaits de la vie de famille. Si vous pensez pouvoir m'apporter ça, n'hésitez pas à venir me rencontrer au refuge ! Ici, quelques photos et vidéos de moi :

About Britannia

What life with Britannia looks like

Britannia is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Bouguenais) in Nantes.

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 Britannia, answered.

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