Iago

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 9 years

Iago is a handsome male Persian cat, 9 years old, with a gentle gaze... and an absolutely unique charm. Very affectionate, playful, and close to humans, Iago loves moments of tenderness just as much as playtime. He is an endearing and sensitive cat. The aftermath of an old accident left him with a small peculiarity: his jaw is slightly protruding and his two canines stick out a little. Iago can live in an apartment and now seeks a family willing to look beyond the differences to discover the wonderful companion he is.

Iago est un beau persan mâle de 9 ans au regard tendre… et au charme absolument unique. Très câlin, joueur et proche de l’humain, Iago adore les moments de douceur autant que les séances de jeu. C’est un chat attachant et sensible. Les séquelles d’un ancien accident lui ont laissé une petite particularité : sa mâchoire est légèrement avancée et ses deux canines ressortent un peu. Iago peut vivre en appartement et recherche désormais une famille prête à voir au-delà des différences pour découvrir le merveilleux compagnon qu’il est.

About Iago

What life with Iago looks like

Iago is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Ligue Vaudoise pour la Défense des Animaux — La Maison des Chats in Switzerland.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Iago, answered.

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