Adopt KAWA

Male · Adult · 5 years

KAWA is a cat who was found, we have no information about his past. He is FIV positive, which is transmissible only between cats, no risks for humans or other animals. He is a quiet, calm and friendly cat, who likes his comfort and loves long naps. He rubs his head against our hand for cuddles and loves human company. He gets along with other cats if they are not too intrusive. We do not know his compatibility with dogs. He can live with children, in an apartment or a house, but without outside access, or secured so as not to infect other healthy cats.

Read original (fr)

Kawa est un chat qui a été trouvé, nous n'avons pas d'informations sur son passé. Il est porteur du sida du chat (FIV), transmissible uniquement entre chats, pas de risques pour les humains ni les autres animaux. C'est un chat tranquille, calme et sociable, qui aime son confort et adore les longues siestes. Il frotte sa tête contre notre main pour avoir des câlins et adore la compagnie des humains. Il s'entend avec les autres chats s'ils ne sont pas trop envahissants. Nous ne connaissons pas ses ententes avec les chiens. Il pourra vivre avec des enfants, en appartement ou en maison, mais sans accès extérieur, ou sécurisé afin de ne pas contaminer d'autres chats sains.

About KAWA

What life with KAWA looks like

KAWA is a adult cat waiting at SPA Arras (Tilloy) in Arras.

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 KAWA, answered.

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