Adopt Guenièvre

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Female Born in December 2023 European Description Description Guenièvre is one of the survivors from the removal due to Diogenes syndrome and Noé. Having lived in a very closed environment, she maintains a certain reserve and remains timid in the face of new things. However, she shows great gentleness: she allows herself to be approached and petted, calmly accepting the first signs of affection. She is a cat who needs to feel safe to come out of her shell. Like her companions, she is currently not housebroken, having never had access to a litter box in her previous life. Her education will require patience. For her well-being and to help her gain confidence, Guenièvre should live in a pair with another cat (a refuge companion or a cat already present in the home) who will serve as a reassuring guide. Placement in a house or apartment Additional information Arrival date at the shelter: December 2025 Identification: 250268781982966 Temperament Other cats: Yes Dogs: To test Children:

Accueil Guenièvre Femelle, née en décembre 2023 Catégorie : Adoptés DescriptionInformations complémentaires Guenièvre fait partie des rescapées du retrait pour syndrome de Diogène et de Noé. Ayant vécu dans un environnement très fermé, elle garde une certaine réserve et se montre encore timide face aux nouveautés. Cependant, elle fait preuve d'une grande douceur : elle se laisse approcher et caresser, acceptant avec calme les premiers signes d'affection. C'est une minette qui a besoin de se sentir en sécurité pour sortir de sa coquille. Comme ses compagnons, elle est actuellement malpropre, n'ayant jamais eu accès à une litière dans son ancienne vie. Son éducation sera à faire avec patience. Pour son bien-être et pour l'aider à prendre de l'assurance, Guenièvre devra vivre en duo avec un autre chat (un compagnon du refuge ou un chat déjà présent dans la maison) qui lui servira de repère rassurant.

About Guenièvre

What life with Guenièvre looks like

Guenièvre is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de Loire Atlantique in Nantes.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷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 Guenièvre, answered.

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