Adopt CRACHOU

Male · Senior · 15 years

CRACHOU arrived at our shelter in 2012. By nature shy and independent, he keeps his distance and doesn't let anyone pet him, but his little raised nose shows just how much interest he has in his surroundings. A big foodie, he can't resist the treat time snacks or the occasional snack, which he particularly enjoys. He is social with other animals of the same species, males or females, as long as they are gentle with him. He seeks a quiet and patient home without young children or another dog, where his independence will be respected. A house with a garden full of hiding spots or an apartment with a secure balcony would suit him perfectly. CRACHOU is eligible for the permanent foster family: all medical expenses related to his condition will be covered until the end of his life. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children.

Crachou est arrivé au refuge en 2012. De nature timide et indépendant, il garde ses distances et ne se laisse pas caresser, mais son petit nez levé montre tout l’intérêt qu’il porte à son environnement. Grand gourmand, il ne résiste ni à la pâtée du goûter ni aux friandises, qu’il apprécie particulièrement. Il est sociable avec ses congénères, mâles ou femelles, tant qu’ils sont doux avec lui. Il recherche un foyer calme et patient, sans enfants en bas âge ni chien, où son indépendance sera respectée. Une maison avec jardin rempli de cachettes ou un appartement avec balcon sécurisé lui conviendrait parfaitement. Crachou est éligible à la famille d'accueil définitive : tous les frais médicaux liés à sa pathologie sont pris en charge jusqu’à la fin de sa vie.

About CRACHOU

What life with CRACHOU looks like

CRACHOU is a senior cat waiting at SPA Vannes in Vannes.

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 CRACHOU, answered.

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