CHOUPI

Female · Senior · 11 years

Cette petite mamie nous a été confiée après avoir été trouvée à l'agonie , amaigrie elle était bien affaiblie à cause d'un coryza non soigné . Choupi a reçu les premiers soins par le couple qui l'a sauvé mais ne pouvant l'accueillir définitivement , ils nous l'ont confié. Choupi aujourd'hui va mieux , mais elle reste fragile . Elle a repris du poids et du poil de la bête aussi ! La petite chose fragile a retrouvé du caractère et cela fait plaisir à voir. Choupi est une petite mamie discrète qui aime sa tranquillité, elle est plutôt indépendante de caractère, c'est elle qui choisit lorsqu'elle veut une marque d'affection. Porteuse du Sida du Chat ( FIV) elle fait partie du dispositif SOS Adoption , elle reste aussi fragile avec le coryza une rechute est possible

About CHOUPI

What life with CHOUPI looks like

CHOUPI is a senior cat waiting at SPA Cherbourg (Cotentin) in Cherbourg.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇫🇷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 CHOUPI, answered.

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