COSMOS

Male · Kitten · 4 months

COSMOS is a very playful kitten, but also quite timid. He needs time to build trust and adapt to his new environment. Rather independent, he appreciates some cuddles once he feels secure and will offer you a few sweet purrs. He is looking for a patient family that will respect his pace and give him all the love he needs.

FR·Show original

Cosmos est un chaton très joueur, mais aussi assez craintif. Il a besoin de temps pour faire confiance et s'adapter à son nouvel environnement. Plutôt indépendant, il apprécie néanmoins les câlins une fois rassuré et vous offrira quelques doux ronrons. Il recherche une famille patiente qui respectera son rythme et lui donnera tout l'amour dont il a besoin.

About COSMOS

What life with COSMOS looks like

COSMOS is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Bouguenais) in Nantes.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 COSMOS, answered.

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