This beautiful gray tabby cat arrived at our shelter with 15 other cats from the same rescue. Despite this eventful start in life, he is a calm, clean and discreet cat. Shy by nature, he will need some time to settle in and gain trust. Once reassured, he can evolve serenely in his new home. He gets along well with other cats and is also comfortable around humans, as long as his rhythm is respected. He can live in both a house or an apartment, in a calm and caring environment. His future adopter will need to show patience and understanding during his adaptation period. With time, gentleness and lots of love, he will reveal all his personality. If you want to offer this tender companion a second chance and accompany him in his new life, please contact us.

About kong

What life with kong looks like

kong is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Étalondes in Etalondes.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting kong, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about kong?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Étalondes handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw kong on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt kong if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Étalondes 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is kong 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 kong 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 Étalondes early rather than rehoming privately; they know kong 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.
