Kakou

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 11 years

Kakou and Zoéla, two cats, one heart. It is impossible to imagine Zoéla without Kakou... and vice versa. These two are very bonded and form an inseparable duo. At 11 years old, Kakou tenderly watches over the little 4-year-old Zoéla, who never strays far from him. Together, they are nearly 30 pounds of love ready to invade your couch... and especially your heart. Their favorite activity? Cuddles, without any hesitation. Kakou loves to snuggle on someone's lap, and when the petting begins, he literally purrs with happiness. Zoéla follows suit and enjoys every moment of tenderness by his side. Accustomed to family life, they dream of finding a home where they can continue to share their daily lives together. Separating them is simply not an option as their bond is so strong.

Kakou et Zoéla, deux chats, un seul cœur. Impossible d'imaginer Zoéla sans Kakou... et inversement. Très fusionnels, ces deux-là forment un duo inséparable. Du haut de ses 11 ans, Kakou veille tendrement sur la petite Zoéla, 4 ans qui ne s'éloigne jamais bien loin de lui. A eux deux, c'est près de 14 kilos d'amour prêts à envahir votre canapé... et surtout votre cœur. Leur activité préférée ? Les câlins, sans aucune hésitation. Kakou adore venir se lover sur les genoux et, quand les caresses commencent, il en bavouille littéralement de bonheur. Zoéla, elle, suit le mouvement et profite de chaque instant de tendresse à ses côtés. Habitués à la vie de famille, ils rêvent de retrouver un foyer où ils pourront continuer à partager leur quotidien, ensemble. Les séparer n'est tout simplement pas envisageable tant leur lien est fort.

About Kakou

What life with Kakou looks like

Kakou 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 Kakou, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kakou?
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 Kakou on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kakou 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 Kakou 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 Kakou 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 Kakou 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.
