LÉO

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Leo is a cat rescued from the streets. He's an amazing tomcat - he can be very discreet and hides when he doesn't know you, but once he trusts you, he's all love! He's a big foodie, so as soon as he realizes we have food, he comes running. He loves cuddles, but for kisses, you need to go easy because he remains cautious - life on the streets often leaves its mark. Leo is afraid of sudden movements and loud noises. During heatwaves, Leo had an ice pack in a towel in his cage so he could cool off; it was renamed his "ice teddy" because he loved it so much, slept on it, and wouldn't give it back! Leo has been microchipped, neutered, tested negative for Felv, dewormed, and treated for fleas.

Léo est un chat sauvé de la rue. C’est un super matou, il peut être hyper discret il se cache et est timide lorsqu’il ne connaît pas mais une fois en confiance c’est un véritable amour !!! C’est un grand gourmand donc une fois qu’il comprends que nous avons de la nourriture il vient en courant. Il aime les câlins, pour les bisous il faut y aller en douceur car il reste méfiant, la vie dans la rue laisse souvent des traces, Léo a peur des gestes brusques et du bruit. Lors des pics de chaleur Léo avait un pain de glaces dans un serviette dans sa cage pour qu’il puisse se rafraîchir cela a été renommé son «doudou glacé» car il y tenait beaucoup il dormait dessus et ne voulait pas nous le rendre ! Léo est identifié par puce électronique, castré, testé négatif Felv, vermifugé et traité contre les puces.

About LÉO

What life with LÉO looks like

LÉO is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Refuge Le Chat Et La Vie in Louvigny.

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 LÉO, answered.

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