Hopis

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Hopis came to us from the pound, identified, but the owner remained unreachable... Today, he is a cat who is a bit lost and especially stressed in this environment that does not suit him. He shows himself calm, distant with humans, waiting for proof that he can trust them. When observed from afar, he appears to be quite fond of food and curious about other cats. He is now looking for a caring and patient family who will earn his trust and provide him with a sense of security.

Hopis nous vient de la fourrière, identifié, mais le propriétaire restait injoignable... Aujourd'hui, c'est un chat un peu perdu et surtout stressé dans cet environnement qui ne lui convient pas. Il se montre calme, distant avec l'humain, attendant une preuve qu'il peut lui faire confiance. Quand on l'observe de loin, on le voit plutôt gourmand et curieux envers les autres chats. Il cherche désormais une famille bienveillante et patiente, qui saura gagner sa confiance et lui apporter un sentiment de sécurité.

About Hopis

What life with Hopis looks like

Hopis is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Vannes in Vannes.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hopis, answered.

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