GANDALF

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Gandalf comes to us from the pound so we don't know his past. He's a fearful little one but will relax easily with patience and gentleness. He's quite food-motivated! He tested positive for calicivirus - staff can give you more explanation about this disease. He must not have outdoor access as his health is more fragile.

FR·Show original

Gandalf est un gentil loulou qui devient de plus en plus câlin. Gandalf est positif au FIV ce qui fait qu'il ne devra pas avoir accès à l'extérieur.

About GANDALF

What life with GANDALF looks like

GANDALF is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Chilleurs-aux-Bois in Chilleurs.

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.

Note from the shelter: Positive for calicivirus, must be indoor-only due to fragile health

🇫🇷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 GANDALF, answered.

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