Celina

Mixed Breed · Female

Célina is a sensitive cat who needs time and patience to regain trust in humans. Arrived at the shelter after being abandoned, she previously lived in an apartment with 19 other cats. This change in life has been challenging for her, and she can be reserved when she doesn't know her environment. With gentleness, respect, and a reassuring setting, Célina will gradually flourish and reveal her personality. We are looking for a calm and kind home that is ready to give her the time she needs to settle in and feel safe.

Célina est une chatte sensible qui a besoin de temps et de patience pour retrouver confiance en l'être humain. Arrivée au refuge suite à un abandon, elle vivait auparavant dans un appartement où elle cohabitait avec 19 autres chats. Ce changement de vie a été éprouvant pour elle, et elle peut se montrer réservée lorsqu'elle ne connaît pas son environnement. Avec de la douceur, du respect et un cadre rassurant, Célina pourra progressivement s'épanouir et révéler sa personnalité. Nous lui recherchons un foyer calme et bienveillant, prêt à lui laisser le temps dont elle a besoin pour prendre ses marques et se sentir en sécurité.

About Celina

What life with Celina looks like

Celina is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Briançon in Briancon.

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 Celina, answered.

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