How do I contact the shelter about HOBBES?

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

Can I adopt HOBBES if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Gamelles Sans Frontière 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 HOBBES 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 HOBBES 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 Gamelles Sans Frontière early rather than rehoming privately; they know HOBBES 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.

HOBBES

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Hobbes, adopted by the Hobbes family (pronounced “Hobz”), is already bigger than his three sisters. This gorgeous tabby kitten, dotted with a few lovely spots, has a little leopard-like flair that definitely doesn’t go unnoticed. It must be said—Hobbes is a real glutton. When it’s time to eat, he can get particularly enthusiastic and won’t hesitate to elbow his way forward just to make sure he gets his fair share! He also loves drinking in the most unlikely places (shower, sink, spilled water, glass—but rarely from his food bowl). Hobbes observes the world with his big eyes, always amazed by everything going on around him. Very energetic, he adores racing around at top speed in every direction, endlessly dashing back and forth for no apparent reason, and climbing whenever a high surface presents itself: cat tree, sofa, shelves—everything is an excuse to scale up! Despite his boundless energy, he’s also incredibly tender; he often snuggles close against his mom or his sisters, happily taking advantage of a cozy cuddle session.

Hobbes à l’adoption Hobbes (à prononcer Hobz) est déjà plus grand que ses 3 sœurs. Ce magnifique chaton tigré parsemé de quelques jolies taches lui donnent un petit air de léopard qui ne passe pas inaperçu. Il faut le dire Hobbes est un vrai gourmand. Quand l’heure de manger arrive, il peut se montrer particulièrement motivé et n’hésitera pas à jouer des coudes pour être sûr d’avoir sa part ! Il aime aussi boire dans des endroits improbables (douche, évier, eau renversée,verre…) mais rarement dans sa gamelle. Hobbes observe le monde avec ses grands yeux, toujours étonné de ce qu’il se passe autour de lui. Très dynamique, il adore courir à toute vitesse dans tous les sens, enchaîner les allers retours sans raison apparente et grimper dès qu’une surface en hauteur se présente : arbre à chat, canapé,étagères, tout est prétexte à l’escalade ! Malgré son énergie débordante, c’est aussi un grand tendre, il se blottit souvent contre sa maman ou ses sœurs, profitant volontiers d’une sies

About HOBBES

What life with HOBBES looks like

HOBBES is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Gamelles Sans Frontière in Île-de-France.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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.
