CROUSTY C

Male · Adult · 9 years

Crousty is an abandoned cat. He lived with about twenty other cats in an apartment. He is likely carrier of the calicivirus and will only be able to live with cats that are also carriers of the same pathology. We do not know his compatibility with dogs. Crousty can live in a house or an apartment, with or without access to the outdoors, within a calm household.

FR·Show original

Crousty est un abandon. Il vivait avec une vingtaine d'autres chats dans un appartement. Il est probablement porteur du calicivirus et pourra seulement vivre avec des chats s'ils sont porteurs de la même pathologie. Nous ne connaissons pas son entente avec les chiens. Crousty pourra vivre en maison ou en appartement, avec ou sans accès à l'extérieur, au sein d'un foyer calme.

About CROUSTY C

What life with CROUSTY C looks like

CROUSTY C is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at SPA Vaux-le-Pénil in Vaux-le-Pénil.

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.

Note from the shelter: Likely carrier of calicivirus - can only live with other cats who are carriers of the same condition

🇫🇷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 CROUSTY C, answered.

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