Hubble

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten

Hubble is a 4-month-old kitten who was rescued with his mother (Curie) and his 4 siblings from an underground garage in Tassin-la-Demi-Lune, rue Joliot-Curie. This large family (of scientists!) was then split between 2 families to allow him to be properly cared for and socialized. Hubble, named after the American astronomer Edwin Hubble, is a large black and white kitten. With his beautiful bowl-cut and big ears, he is the most timid kitten in the group. He watches his two sisters and only approaches if everything is okay! Hubble is, despite this, a very playful, observant, and a bit clumsy kitten in his jumping maneuvers. Hubble is in foster care with his sisters Rubin and Hopper and his mother Curie. All four are cats that are both independent and close to humans. They will need a bit more time to discover the joys of human contact. The family lived outdoors for a very long time and expresses its need for access to the outdoors.

Hubble est un petit chaton de 4 mois récupéré avec sa mère (Curie) et ses 4 frères et soeurs dans un garage souterrain à Tassin-la-Demi-Lune, rue Joliot-Curie. Cette grande famille (de scientifiques !) a ensuite été répartie dans 2 familles pour lui permettre d'être correctement soignée et sociabilisée. Hubble, qui tire son nom de l'astronome américain Edwin Hubble, est un grand chaton blanc et noir. Avec sa belle coupe au bol et ses grandes oreilles, c'est le chaton le plus froussard de la bande. Il observe ses deux sœurs et ne s'approche que si tout est ok ! Hubble est malgré tout un chaton très joueur, observateur et un peu maladroit dans ses manœuvres de saut. Hubble est en accueil avec ses soeurs Rubin et Hopper et sa mère Curie. Ils sont tous les quatre des chats à la fois indépendants et proches de l'humain. Il faudra leur laisser encore un peu de temps pour découvrir les joies du contact. La famille a vécu très longtemps en extérieur et exprime son besoin d'un accès en passant

About Hubble

What life with Hubble looks like

Hubble is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Association EACPV — Entraide Amis des Chats et des Pigeons des Villes in 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hubble, answered.

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