How do I contact the shelter about Ela?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Arche de Phoenix handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ela on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ela if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Arche de Phoenix 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 Ela 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 Ela 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 Arche de Phoenix early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ela 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.

Ela

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Here is sweet little Ela, who was abandoned to her sad fate. She was left in a colony of stray cats. After several weeks, Ela gave birth to four adorable kittens. She had to fight off several other cats to protect her babies. When our volunteers rescued her, she had serious injuries. Ela and her kittens were examined by our veterinarian; all blood tests came back negative. Ela received medical care from our vet and then from her foster family. Now Ela is fully recovered and ready for adoption. All of Ela’s kittens have already been adopted—only Ela remains, and we’re eager to find her a wonderful forever home. Ela is affectionate, playful, and litter-trained. She’s afraid of other cats and tends to hide to avoid any contact with them; she’s still sensitive to what she experienced in the colony. We’re looking for a kind family who will know how to care for her properly. Ela can live either in an apartment or in a house with a garden. Name: Ela. Breed: mixed breed. Gender: female. Age: 01/2022. Health: vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, microchipped, FIV/FELV-negative. Color: black and white. Behavior: calm, gentle, sociable, affectionate. Current situation: foster family in Spain. Ela is available for adoption under an association contract. Info and adoption: Email: Adoption fees cover the microchip, pet passport, rabies vaccine, disease vaccines plus booster shots, spaying, deworming, and transportation. Ela could join us on the next travel date—but only if she has an adopter, so please consider her! Ela is waiting for a family that can welcome her forever!
