ELIVE

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Elive is a very fearful, even feral, cat. He has always lived surrounded by other cats with outdoor access. At the moment, he doesn't let anyone touch him. It will take him a long time—several months—to adjust to his new environment.

About ELIVE

What life with ELIVE looks like

ELIVE is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Cluses in Cluses.

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 ELIVE, answered.

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