Carla

Mixed Breed · Female

Carla is a small, shy and discreet young cat who prefers to hide or watch from a distance. She has not yet discovered the pleasure of being petted, but with patient and kind adopters, she could gradually learn to trust. With time and gentleness, Carla could reveal the affection that lies dormant within her.

FR·Show original

Carla est une petite minette discrète et timide, qui préfère se cacher ou observer à distance. Elle n’a pas encore découvert le plaisir des caresses, mais avec des adoptants patients et bienveillants, elle pourrait peu à peu apprendre à accorder sa confiance. Avec du temps et de la douceur, Carla pourrait révéler la tendresse qui sommeille en elle.

About Carla

What life with Carla looks like

Carla is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Chadaba in Lechâtelet.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Carla, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Carla?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Chadaba handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Carla on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Carla if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Chadaba 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Carla 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 Carla 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 Chadaba early rather than rehoming privately; they know Carla 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.
