How do I contact the shelter about Ibis?

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

Can I adopt Ibis if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA de Loire Atlantique 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 Ibis already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs 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 Ibis 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 de Loire Atlantique early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ibis 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.

Adopt Ibis

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Ibis Male Born in May 2013 European Description Description Ibis is a touching senior grandfather looking for adoption in the "Doyen" operation, thanks to 30 million friends he benefits from a budget to cover possible veterinary costs up to 1000€ (upon presentation of invoices). He is a little gentle soul with a golden heart, described as a kind and calm companion who is looking for a peaceful home to enjoy happy days. In terms of health, Ibis requires special attention. He suffers from arthritis and has a history of frequent urinary tract infections. Due to these repeated episodes, he is now incontinent. Therefore, his future home must be prepared to offer him the appropriate care and adaptations for his condition to ensure maximum comfort. Ibis is a sociable cat who could get along well with children over 10 years old (able to respect his tranquility) as well as with other cats. Offering a place to Ibis is an act of pure generosity in offering a dignified and loving end of life to a senior who deserves it so much.

About Ibis

What life with Ibis looks like

Ibis is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de Loire Atlantique in Nantes.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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.
