How do I contact the shelter about Hélios?

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

Can I adopt Hélios if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Association Un Ami O 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 Hélios 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 Hélios 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 Association Un Ami O early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hélios 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.

Hélios

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 1 year

Hélios, named after the sun god, is a ray of sunshine with a mischievous streak. His irresistible face and seemingly sad eyes melt hearts, but don't be fooled - he's a playful, curious, and lively kitten. Hélios is constantly discovering the world with wonder. He's fascinated by running water and loves watching his human do the dishes as if it were a magical spectacle. He's very food-motivated and won't hesitate to let you know with protesting meows that a piece of chicken would be greatly appreciated. And he knows how to get his point across! He's a clown with a big heart. An endless playmate, he turns everything into a toy: socks, crayons, sponges, curtains - nothing can resist him. He doesn't have a favorite toy, but he'd love the company of another young cat to share his wild adventures. Hélios is also a bundle of affection. During cuddle time, he loves to snuggle into a soft blanket, gently suckling on it while kneading with his little paws. A true moment of pure tenderness and love. Easy-going, gentle, and without a trace of aggression, Hélios is the perfect little companion for an apartment life. Just one little flaw: he's a bit of a thief! Don't leave food on the table, because "vacuum cleaner Hélios" won't leave anything behind. This little treasure is now looking for a loving family to offer him a safe home, affection, and endless playtime. In return, Hélios will shower you with love, purrs, and laughter. Adoption conditions: Hélios must be adopted into a home with a cat already. He can also be adopted in a duo with Saga or Lilith!

Trouvé avec Freya, Lilith et Saga sur l’autoroute, Hélios porte bien son nom : c’est un véritable petit rayon de lumière. Avec sa bouille irrésistible et son regard faussement triste, il fait fondre tous ceux qui croisent son chemin. Mais ne vous y trompez pas : derrière cette mine mélancolique se cache un chaton malicieux, curieux et plein de vie ! Hélios découvre le monde avec un émerveillement constant. L’eau qui coule du robinet le fascine, il adore observer son humain faire la vaisselle comme si c’était un spectacle magique. Très gourmand, il ne manque jamais de faire savoir, avec ses petits miaulements protestataires, qu’un morceau de poulet serait très apprécié. Et il sait très bien se faire comprendre ! C’est un petit clown au grand cœur. Joueur infatigable, il transforme tout en jouet : chaussettes, crayons, éponges, rideaux… rien ne lui résiste. Il n’a pas de jouet préféré, mais il appréciera beaucoup la compagnie d’un autre jeune chat pour partager ses folles aventures. Hélios, c’est aussi un concentré de tendresse. Pendant les moments câlins, il aime s’emmitoufler dans un plaid moelleux, qu’il tète doucement en pétrissant avec ses petites pattes. Un vrai instant de douceur et d’amour pur. Facile à vivre, doux et sans la moindre once d’agressivité, Hélios est un petit compagnon parfait pour une vie en appartement. Seul petit défaut : il est un peu chapardeur ! Ne laissez pas traîner de nourriture sur la table, car “l’aspirateur Hélios” ne laissera rien derrière lui. Ce petit trésor cherche aujourd’hui une famille aimante, prête à lui offrir un foyer sûr, de l’affection et des moments de jeu à volonté. En retour, Hélios vous comblera de tendresse, de ronrons et de rires. Conditions d’adoption : Helios devra être adopté dans un foyer ayant déjà un chat, il peut aussi être adopté en duo avec Saga ou Lilith !Localisation :Frais d'adoption :Processus d'adoptionBréal-sous-Montfort (35)220€Regarder nos autres chatsFormulaire d'adoptionAdopter Devenir famille d'accueil Faire un don Donner 1€ par moisNous contacter Mentions légales Statuts Vie privéeREJOIGNEZ-NOUS ! © 2025 association Un Ami O'Poilbottom of page

About Hélios

What life with Hélios looks like

Hélios is a small young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Association Un Ami O in France.

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.
