Kezia

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 8 years

" I don't understand what I'm doing here, locked up with strangers. What crime have I committed to end up like this? Me, who was only kindness, I now face oblivion and fear. Don't leave me to waste away here! Everything here scares me: the noise, the people ... fortunately my fellow unfortunate friends let me cuddle up against them to find some comfort. Without them, I wouldn't be able to survive here. Telling you that I'm looking for a family that will understand my needs and give me the time necessary for my development is a dream that crosses my mind every night as I fall asleep. Here comes the day ... maybe today my dream will become reality?"

FR·Show original

« Je ne comprends ce que je fais ici, enfermée avec des inconnus. Quel crime ai-je commis pour en arriver là ? Moi qui n’étais que douceur, je ne me retrouve confrontée à l’oubli et à la peur. Ne me laissez pas moisir ici ! Tout ici m’effraie : le bruit, les gens … heureusement que mes copains d’infortune me laissent me lover contre eux pour trouver un peu de réconfort. Sans eux, je n’arriverais pas à survivre ici. Vous dire que je recherche une famille qui saura cerner mes attentes et qui me laissera le temps nécessaire à mon épanouissement est un rêve qui me transverse l’esprit tous les soirs en m’endormant. Tiens le jour se lève … c’est peut-être aujourd’hui que mon rêve va devenir réalité ? »

About Kezia

What life with Kezia looks like

Kezia is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at S.P.A Vauclusienne in Piégon.

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 Kezia, answered.

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