Adopt Hubert

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 14 years

Hubert, 11 years old, is part of the Black Family: He is being adopted together with his brother DOUGLAS, 5 years old, no particular health issues. Since their arrival at the shelter in 2020, they have become very attached. It's so beautiful to see this bond, these two partners cannot be separated. They are one, especially for naps, walking around and eating together. THEY DO EVERYTHING TOGETHER!! Both are handsome, kind, they are crazy about chicken! You will probably have to be very patient with them, but when they trust you, you will gain a lot in return!!

HUBERT âgé de 11 ans fait partie de la Black Family : Il est proposé en double adoption avec son frère DOUGLAS, 5 ans, aucun souci de santé particulier. Depuis leurs arrivées au refuge en 2020 ils sont devenus très fusionnels. Tellement beau à voir cette complicité, que ces deux acolytes ne peuvent être séparés. Ils ne font qu'un, surtout pour les siestes, se baladent et mangent ensemble. ILS FONT TOUT à DEUX !! Les deux sont beaux, gentils, ils sont dingues de poulet ! il faudra sûrement être très patient avec eux, mais quand ils vous feront confiance vous y gagnerez au change !!

About Hubert

What life with Hubert looks like

Hubert is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Association du Chat Libre La Destrousse in France.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇫🇷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 Hubert, answered.

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