Chama

European Shorthair · Female

I am Chama, a mother cat with kittens, and I am now available for adoption. I was found wandering around and given my behavior, it's likely that I spent time on the streets. As such, I am quite timid and remain tense when handled, so I will need time and patience to relax. The adoption fee is €205, which includes veterinary costs (tested negative for FIV/FELV, microchip identification, initial vaccination, sterilization, deworming). A certificate of commitment and knowledge must be signed at least 7 days before adoption. You can sign it at the shelter to reserve an animal. The shelter is open every day from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesdays) from 2 PM to 5 PM.

Moi, c'est Chama, arrivée avec mes chatons, je suis maintenant à l'adoption. Trouvée errante et au vu de mon comportement, j'ai sûrement passé du temps dans la rue. En effet, je suis assez craintive et reste tendue à la manipulation, j'aurai besoin de temps et de patience pour me détendre. L'adoption s'élève à 205€, cela comprend les frais vétérinaires (testée FIV/FELV négative, l’identification par puce électronique, la primo-vaccination, la stérilisation, le déparasitage). Un certificat d'engagement et de connaissance doit être signé au moins 7 jours avant adoption. Vous pourrez le signer au refuge afin de pouvoir réserver un animal. Le refuge est ouvert tous les jours du lundi au dimanche (sauf les mardis) de 14H à 17H.

About Chama

What life with Chama looks like

Chama is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA de Périgueux in France.

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 Chama, answered.

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