DROSOPHILE

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

A fruit fly and its 66 companions were rescued from a shelter after suffering mistreatment, living in an unsanitary apartment with over 100 cats. They will need time to regain their trust and adapt to a normal life. Having never known children, a calm home will be essential to gain their trust, and a home without children is preferred. They can live in either an apartment or a house, but it is essential that they be adopted with another cat already in the home. They are just beginning to open up to humans, so patience, gentleness, and love are the perfect combination to welcome them into your home! They are in an SOS device due to their fearful nature, so open your door to them.

About DROSOPHILE

What life with DROSOPHILE looks like

DROSOPHILE is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Plouhinec in Plouhinec.

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 DROSOPHILE, answered.

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