IMALTAR

Female · Senior · 11 years

IMALTAR is a cat with a distinctive physique that is hard to ignore (long fur, small face with a slightly grumpy expression). Calm, shy, and a bit temperamental, she will take time to trust and thus seeks a patient family that can take the time to make her feel at ease. Coming from a place where she lived with other cats, there should be no issues with her living with other cats of the same species.

FR·Show original

Imaltar est une chatte au physique particulier qui ne devrait pas laisser indifférent (poils longs, petit air un peu renfrogné). Calme, craintive et un peu caractérielle, elle mettra du temps à accorder sa confiance et recherche donc une famille patiente qui saura prendre le temps pour la mettre à l'aise. Venant d'un lieu où elle vivait avec d'autres chats, il ne devrait y avoir aucun souci à ce qu'elle vive avec d'autres congénères.

About IMALTAR

What life with IMALTAR looks like

IMALTAR is a small senior cat waiting at SPA Briançon in Briancon.

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 IMALTAR, answered.

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