Lilou

Female · Adult · 7 years

Lilou is a sweet 15-year-old lady who needs time to get to know you. She is shy at first, but once she gains confidence, she shows herself to be gentle and affectionate. She is looking for a good retirement home with a caring family. She came to us following her owner's death. We don't know her compatibility with other cats, dogs, or children.

FR·Show original

Lilou est encore un peu perdue depuis son arrivée de Martinique. Douce et affectueuse, elle adore les calins et préferera avoir ses humains et son espace de vie rien qu'a elle. Porteuse du sida du chat, son adoption se fera sous le dispositif SOS.

About Lilou

What life with Lilou looks like

Lilou is a small adult cat waiting at SPA Plouhinec in Plouhinec.

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 Lilou, answered.

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