Adopt Catapulte

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Catapulte Female Born in December 2023 European Description Description Catapulte joined us following a removal due to Diogenes and Noé syndrome. Having grown up in a very particular and isolated environment, she still bears the marks of this difficult past and shows herself to be very reserved. She is a little cat who still flees a lot whenever she feels watched or approached, but she is absolutely not aggressive. Everything is new for her, and her education needs to be built from scratch. She is currently not housebroken, having never known the use of litter before coming to the shelter. Therefore, a lot of patience and understanding will be needed to accompany her in this learning process. To help her thrive and come out of her hiding place, her placement must necessarily be with another cat (a refuge companion or a friend already present in the house). The presence of a balanced fellow animal of the same species will be an indispensable and reassuring landmark for her. Adopting Catapulte is offering her the time and tenderness she needs to finally feel at home. Home or apartment placement. Additional information Arrival date at the shelter: December 2025 Identification: 250268781983143 Agreements Other cats: Yes Dogs: To test Children:

Accueil Catapulte Femelle, née en décembre 2023 Catégorie : Adoptés DescriptionInformations complémentaires Catapulte nous a rejoints suite à un retrait pour syndrome de Diogène et de Noé. Ayant grandi dans un environnement très particulier et isolé, elle porte encore les marques de ce passé difficile et se montre très réservée. C'est une minette qui fuit encore beaucoup dès qu'elle se sent observée ou approchée, mais elle n'est absolument pas agressive. Tout est nouveau pour elle, et son éducation est à construire de zéro. Elle est actuellement malpropre, n'ayant jamais connu l'usage d'une litière avant son arrivée au refuge. Il faudra donc beaucoup de patience et de compréhension pour l'accompagner dans cet apprentissage. Pour l'aider à s'épanouir et à sortir de sa cachette, son placement devra impérativement se faire avec un autre chat (un compagnon du refuge ou un copain déjà présent dans la maison). La présence d'un congénère équilibré sera pour elle un repère indispensable et rassurant. Adopter Catapulte, c'est lui offrir le temps et la douceur dont elle a besoin pour enfin se sentir chez elle. Placement maison ou appartement.

About Catapulte

What life with Catapulte looks like

Catapulte is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de Loire Atlantique in Nantes.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷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 Catapulte, answered.

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