LYRA

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 10 months

Lyra is a 10-month-old female cat who was born outside to a feral mother. She lived outside at a feeding station until a neighbor showed malicious intent, at which point the association took her in for safety. She was very fearful and was socialized in a foster home for several months. However, she remains somewhat timid. She will need a long adjustment period and may be shy at first. She is slowly learning that humans will not harm her. Lyra needs a calm and patient home, no young children, with adopters aware that the relationship will develop slowly. The presence of another sociable cat would be a real plus to help her evolve. She is very playful, loves feathers, strings... 🩺 Lyra is microchipped, dewormed, vaccinated, spayed, FIV-FELV tested. 🏠 THE IDEAL HOME 🏠 After what she has experienced, she would be better in an apartment family without going outside because she remains traumatized by the bad relationships she had with humans when she was outside. 🐈 Ok cat 🐕 Not ok dog 👶 Ok gentle older child 🔸 Visible in La Seyne sur mer (83) A heart for LYRA? Please fill out the adoption form and contact the association. Adoption under an association contract, adoption fees are €150.

Lyra est une petite chatte de 10 mois, née dehors d'une chatte sauvage. Elle vivait dehors sur un point de nourrissage, jusqu’à ce qu’un voisin fasse preuve de malveillance… c’est à ce moment là que l’association l’a récupérée pour la mettre en sécurité. Elle était très craintive et a été socialisée en famille d’accueil pendant plusieurs mois. Mais elle reste assez peureuse. Elle aura besoin d’un temps d’adaptation assez long et risque de se montrer fuyante au départ. Elle apprend doucement que l'humain ne lui fera aucun mal. Lyra aura besoin d’un foyer calme et patient, sans jeunes enfants, avec des adoptants conscients que la relation se construira doucement. La présence d’un autre chat sociable serait un vrai plus pour l’aider à évoluer. Elle est très joueuse, adore les plumeaux, les ficelles... 🩺 Lyra est identifiée par puce électronique, déparasitée, vaccinée, stérilisée, testée FIV-FELV. 🏠 LE FOYER IDEAL 🏠 Après ce qu'elle a vécu, elle serait mieux dans une famille en appartement sans sortie car elle reste traumatisée par les mauvaises relations qu’elle a vécu avec des humains lorsqu’elle était dehors. 🐈 Ok chat 🐕 Pas ok chien 👶 Ok grand enfant doux 🔸 Visible à La Seyne sur mer (83) Un coup de cœur pour LYRA ? Merci de remplir le formulaire d'adoption et de prendre contact avec l'association. Adoption sous contrat associatif, les frais d'adoption sont d'un montant de 150€

About LYRA

What life with LYRA looks like

LYRA is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Ch in France.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 LYRA, answered.

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