Calem

Male · Kitten · 4 months

Calem Date of birth: May 12, 2026 Sex: male Coat: brindle brown semi-long Who am I? Calem was taken in with his brother from the Niort animal shelter. He is very observant and needs calm to relax and show himself, and will be fearful at first. He starts coming when called and no longer hides when you're there. He lets himself be petted but is not yet very comfortable with it. If he's scared, he'll remain rather prostrate in his attitude. When you pet him, since he's not very comfortable yet, he bites and licks a lot.

CALEM Date de naissance : 12 mai 2026 Sexe : mâle Robe : tigrée rayée brune mi longue Qui suis-je ? Calem a été pris en charge avec son frère auprès de la fourrière de Niort. Il est très observateur et a besoin de calme pour se détendre et se montrer, et sera craintif au début. Il commence à venir quand on l’appelle et ne se cache plus quand on est là. Il se laisse caresser mais n’est pas encore très à l’aise avec ça. S’il a peur, il restra plutôt prostré dans son attitude. Quand on le caresse, vu qu’il n’est pas encore très à l’aise, il mordille et lèche beaucoup.

About Calem

What life with Calem looks like

Calem is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Pas de Chat Sans Toit in pas de chat sans toit.

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 Calem, answered.

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