Dark

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

Dark is a 13-year-old adorable cat who arrived at the shelter with his friend Mascotte. ❤️ He came to us from a pound, and unfortunately we know nothing about his past. Initially shy, Dark will need time, patience, and gentleness to gain trust. Once reassured, he can finally reveal all his personality. Today, this kind senior deserves to find a calm and caring family who will offer him the security and love that he may have never known before.

Dark, 13 ans Dark est un adorable matou de 13 ans, arrivé au refuge avec sa copine Mascotte. ❤️ Arrivé suite à un passage en fourrière, nous ne connaissons malheureusement rien de son passé. Timide au premier abord, Dark aura besoin de temps, de patience et de douceur pour accorder sa confiance. Une fois rassuré, il pourra enfin révéler toute sa personnalité. Aujourd'hui, ce gentil senior mérite de trouver une famille calme et bienveillante qui lui offrira la sécurité et l'amour qu'il n'a peut-être jamais connus.

About Dark

What life with Dark looks like

Dark is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Compiègne in Compiègne.

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 Dark, answered.

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