Bûchette

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

Bûchette is a 12-year-old tricolor cat, affectionate and endearing. She also has her little personality and knows exactly how to say "no" when she wants to be left alone. Bûchette was abandoned while suffering from a cystitis. To take care of her urinary health, she will need to continue receiving a specific "urinary" diet. We are looking for a calm home for her, without young children or other animals, where her need for tranquility will be respected. Access to the outdoors is also essential.

Nous recherchons pour elle un foyer calme, sans enfants en bas âge ni autres animaux, où son besoin de tranquillité sera respecté. Un accès à l’extérieur est également indispensable.

About Bûchette

What life with Bûchette looks like

Bûchette is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Ligue Vaudoise pour la Défense des Animaux — La Maison des Chats in Switzerland.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bûchette, answered.

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