CHA'MELLE

Female · Young · 3 years

CHA'MELLE is a large, shy cat. She will earn her trust over time with patience. She is FIV and calicivirus positive, so she must live exclusively indoors and cannot be around other cats that do not carry the same diseases. She can live with respectful, large children, but she prefers a quiet home.

FR·Show original

Cha'melle est une grande timide. Elle saura accorder sa confiance mais avec du temps et de la patience. Elle est porteuse du FIV et du calicivirus, elle devra donc vivre exclusivement en intérieur et ne pas côtoyer d'autres chats non porteurs des mêmes maladies. Elle pourra vivre avec des grands enfants respectueux, mais préfèrera un foyer calme.

About CHA'MELLE

What life with CHA'MELLE looks like

CHA'MELLE is a young adult cat waiting at SPA Tours (Luynes) in Tours.

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 CHA'MELLE, answered.

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