Kiko

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Kiko est une adorable petite chatte, douce, attachante et pleine de vie. Une fois à l’aise, elle se montre très câline et adore partager des moments de jeu avec ses humains. Kiko est proposée à l’adoption en SOS (sans autres frais d’adoption que la cotisation de membre), car elle souffre d’allergies alimentaires et probablement également environnementales. Ces allergies provoquent des lésions cutanées douloureuses et inconfortables. Afin de lui offrir la meilleure qualité de vie possible, sa future famille devra être prête à respecter quelques règles essentielles : une alimentation hypoallergénique stricte et exclusive, un environnement intérieur propre et soigneusement entretenu, l’absence d’accès à l’extérieur ainsi qu’un traitement à la cortisone lors des poussées si nécessaire. En échange de ces quelques attentions, Kiko vous offrira toute sa tendresse et sa confiance. Nous espérons trouver pour elle une famille bienveillante et investie, prête à lui offrir un foyer stable où elle pourra vivre sereinement malgré ses petits soucis de santé.

About Kiko

What life with Kiko looks like

Kiko is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA Valais in Uvrier.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kiko, answered.

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