DILAN (EN SAUVETAGE)

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 3 years

Dilan is a neutered European male born on 8/14/2023. He was identified with a microchip and tested positive for FIV. Dilan arrived at the shelter on 8/6/2023 from Ukraine. Unfortunately, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine has not spared the animals. An overwhelmed local association contacted us, seeking a solution to save several dogs and cats left to fend for themselves. We immediately responded. Please visit the shelter from 2-5pm, Monday through Saturday, without an appointment, and fill out an application. They are ready to find their families - gentle, patient, loving families who will give them what war has taken away.❤️‍🩹 An animal is considered "SAVED" if it carries FIV+ or FeLV+. Adoption fees are then €120.😺❤️‍🩹

Mâle Castré Européen Né le 14.08.2023 Identifié par puce Test FELV + (POSITIF) Dilan est arrivé au refuge le 06.08.2026 d’Ukraine ! 🇺🇦 Le conflit qui ravage toujours l’Ukraine n’épargne malheureusement pas les animaux... 😿 Nous avons été contactés par une association sur place, débordée, qui cherchait une solution pour sauver plusieurs chiens et chats livrés à eux-mêmes. Sans hésiter, nous avons répondu présent. ❤️ N’hésitez pas à venir au refuge de 14h00 à 17h30, du lundi au samedi sans rendez-vous, et remplir un dossier ! Ils sont prêts à trouver leur famille, une famille douce, patiente, aimante… qui leur offrira ce que la guerre leur a pris.❤️‍🩹 Un animal est considéré comme étant « EN SAUVETAGE », lorsqu’il est porteur du sida (Fiv+) ou de la leucose (Felv+). Les frais d’adoption sont alors de 120€ 😺❤️‍🩹 –

About DILAN (EN SAUVETAGE)

What life with DILAN (EN SAUVETAGE) looks like

DILAN (EN SAUVETAGE) is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA de Basse-Normandie in Verson.

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.

🇫🇷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 DILAN (EN SAUVETAGE), answered.

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