Adopt IVOIRE C

Female · Adult · 8 years

Ivoire arrived at our shelter following a seizure by authorities; she was living in an apartment with about sixty other animals of the same species. She is a rather shy cat and it is still too early to say if she will develop in any way. Although she is not seeking human contact yet, Ivoire shows no signs of aggression and it is already possible to touch her. She can live in a home with another cat, preferably well-adjusted in order to help her progress in a positive way. For her well-being, we are looking for a calm home without children. Moreover, having been in contact with cats possibly infected with calicivirus, she is considered a carrier of this disease.

Ivoire est arrivée chez nous suite à une saisie ; elle vivait dans un appartement avec une soixantaine d’autres congénères. C’est une chatte plutôt timide et il est encore trop tôt pour dire si elle pourra évoluer d’une manière ou d’une autre. Bien qu’elle ne recherche pas encore le contact humain, Ivoire ne montre aucun signe d’agressivité et il est déjà possible de la toucher. Elle pourra vivre dans un foyer avec un autre chat, plutôt bien dans ses pattes afin de l’aider à progresser de façon positive. Pour son bien-être, nous lui recherchons un foyer calme et sans enfants. De plus, ayant été au contact de chats probablement calicivirus, elle est considérée comme porteuse de cette maladie.

About IVOIRE C

What life with IVOIRE C looks like

IVOIRE C is a adult cat waiting at SPA Vaux-le-Pénil in Vaux-le-Pénil.

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 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 IVOIRE C, answered.

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