GAUFRETTE

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Gaufrette arrived at the shelter with Briochette and Brioche (who have already found their forever families). Gaufrette is very timid and prefers to keep her distance for now due to fear. She is playful when alone and does not see humans. She will need a lot of time, patience, and gentleness to reveal herself calmly. She is available for adoption through SOS due to her temperament.

Gaufrette nous arrive de fourrière avec Briochette et Brioche (qui ont déjà trouvé sa famille pour la vie). Gaufrette est très craintive, elle préfère mettre à distance pour le moment par peur. Elle se montre joueuse quand elle est seule et ne voit pas l'humain. Elle aura besoin de beaucoup de temps, de patience et de douceur pour se dévoiler sereinement. Elle est adoptable en SOS au vu de son tempérament.

About GAUFRETTE

What life with GAUFRETTE looks like

GAUFRETTE is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA La Roche-sur-Yon in Roche Sur Yon.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting GAUFRETTE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about GAUFRETTE?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA La Roche-sur-Yon handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw GAUFRETTE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt GAUFRETTE if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA La Roche-sur-Yon 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is GAUFRETTE 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 GAUFRETTE 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 La Roche-sur-Yon early rather than rehoming privately; they know GAUFRETTE 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.
