CHAMINOU

Male · Adult · 4 years

CHAMINOU is a gentle, affectionate and cuddly cat. He is FIV positive (Feline Immunodeficiency Syndrome), a disease specific to cats, not transmissible to humans. Therefore, he must live indoors to avoid contaminating other cats (it is mainly transmitted through fights, by the passage of blood). He must be the only cat in the home, or can cohabit with other cats who are themselves FIV positive. The sweet CHAMINOU does not need treatment at this time, and is eagerly awaiting a new home.

FR·Show original

Chaminou est un gentil matou très affectueux et câlin. Il est porteur FIV (Syndrome d’immunodéficience féline), maladie spécifique au chat, non transmissible aux humains. De ce fait il devra impérativement vivre en intérieur pour éviter la contamination d’autres chats (se fait principalement lors des bagarres, par le passage par le sang). Il devra être le seul chat du foyer, ou pourra cohabiter avec d’autres chats eux-mêmes déjà FIV. Le doux Chaminou n’a pas besoin de traitement à ce jour, et attend avec impatience un nouveau foyer.

About CHAMINOU

What life with CHAMINOU looks like

CHAMINOU is a adult cat waiting at SPA Torreilles in Torreilles.

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 CHAMINOU, answered.

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