Clochette

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Clochette, a small kitty estimated to be 8 years old. Clochette was very timid and scared upon arrival at our shelter. She would hide under the bed, motionless, for hours. The birth of her two kittens allowed Clochette to understand that humans are not necessarily mean. Today, Clochette is still very wary. She enjoys her peace and does not seek to be petted. However, if you approach her gently, she will extend her head with pleasure to receive it. Clochette is very talkative: she tends to coo to signal her presence. For now, she is also very playful with her kittens. She tolerates dogs, but a dog-free home would be ideal. She needs a family that will take the time to let her progress at her own pace, in calm and kindness.

Clochette, petite minette estimée à 8 ans. Clochette était très craintive et apeurée à son arrivée à la maison. Elle restait cachée sous le lit, sans bouger, pendant des heures. La naissance de ses deux petits chatons a permis à Clochette de comprendre que l’humain n’est pas forcément méchant. Aujourd’hui, Clochette reste encore très méfiante. Elle aime sa tranquillité et ne vient pas réclamer de caresses. En revanche, si vous vous approchez d’elle en douceur, elle tendra sa tête avec plaisir pour en recevoir. Clochette est très bavarde : elle a tendance à roucouler pour signaler sa présence. Pour le moment, elle est également très joueuse avec ses petits. Elle tolère les chiens, mais une famille sans chien serait l’idéal. Elle a besoin d’une famille qui saura prendre le temps nécessaire pour la laisser avancer à son rythme, dans le calme et la bienveillance. A besoin d'un extérieur. À venir rencontrer chez sa famille d'accueil.

About Clochette

What life with Clochette looks like

Clochette is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Arche de Noé Brest in France.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷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 Clochette, answered.

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