How do I contact the shelter about Fifty?

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

Can I adopt Fifty if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Des Coeurs à Sauver 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 Fifty 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 Fifty 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 Des Coeurs à Sauver early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fifty 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.

Fifty

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Fifty has a little message for you 💖 Hey there, cat friends! I'm FIFTY, and you've probably heard about me lately because I was featured in the raffle at the end of 2025. I'm quite a character, and I'll need to be the only cat in the house to get all the attention—I don't share! I was taken in charge in the spring of 2025 after a major operation due to urinary issues. I became a girl by force of circumstances... They had to remove my penis so I could urinate without issues. After that, I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis, which I'll have to manage. I'll need a specific diet to avoid digestive issues. I had a major crisis that required a long hospital stay and a feeding tube, and I've been through a PIF... My foster mom was very worried about everything I went through. But today, I'm OFFICALLY cured, and all that is behind me. I'm looking for MY forever family, one that will accept me as I am, with my baggage and strong personality. I'm not mean—I love cuddles and sleeping against humans every night, but if you pet me without my consent, I'll show my displeasure. I'm looking for a home without kids or roommates. So, if my strong personality and past don't scare you, come meet me and give me a chance. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children. This animal is for adult-only homes.

Fifty a un petit message pour vous 💖 Coucou les amis des chats Moi je suis le beau FIFTY. Vous avez sans doutes entendu parler de moi ces derniers mois, car j'ai été à l'affiche de la tombola de cette fin d'année 2025. Je suis assez caractériel, et il me faudra être le seul chat de la maison pour avoir toute l'attention Je ne partage pas! J'ai été pris en charge au printemps 2025, suite à une grosse opération suite à des problèmes urinaires. Je suis devenu par la force des choses une fille.. On a du retirer mon pénis pour que je puisse faire mes pipis tranquillement. Après cela, on m'a détecté une pancréatite, que je ferai malheureusement en chronique. Il me faudra une alimentation spécifique, pour que je ne souffre pas en digestion. J'ai eu une grosse crise d'ailleurs qui m'a valu une hospitalisation longue et une sonde pour me nourrir et j'ai enchainé sur une PIF…. ma maman d'accueil était très inquiète avec tout ce que j'ai déclaré. Mais aujourd’hui je suis OFFICIELLEMENT guérit et tout cela est derrière moi. Je recherche donc MA famille pour la vie, celle qui m'acceptera comme je suis, avec mes bagages et mon caractère bien trempé. Je ne suis pas méchant, j'aime les câlins et dormir contre les humains chaque nuit, mais si on me caresse sans mon accord, je montre mon mécontentement. Je cherche un foyer sans enfants ni copains. Alors si mon caractère fort et mon passé ne vous font pas peur, venez me rencontrer et me donner une chance… Je ne suis pas le plus mignon de tous si on me compare aux chatons tout doux, mais je suis un amour de chat qui mérite de trouver un foyer pour le reste de ma longue vie A très vite

About Fifty

What life with Fifty looks like
