LYZA

Female · Young · 2 years

LYZA arrived with us from the pound. She is shy and will need time to adapt to her new environment and to build trust. A calm and secure home is essential for her well-being. Given her chronic gingivitis, her dental health will need to be monitored. We invite you to complete the commitment and knowledge form before meeting her at the shelter. Available on our website and by email through the contact form. All adoptions must be preceded by a home visit to the shelter with all members of the household.

Lyza est arrivée chez nous par la fourrière. Elle est timide et aura besoin de temps pour s'adapter à son nouvel environnement ainsi qu'accorder sa confiance. Un foyer calme et sécurisant est essentiel pour son épanouissement. Ayant une gingivite chronique, et atteinte du Calicivirus, l'état de sa santé buccale sera à surveiller. Du fait de cette pathologie, Lyza ne pourra pas avoir accès à l'extérieur sauf si c'est un balcon ou une terrasse sécurisés.

About LYZA

What life with LYZA looks like

LYZA is a young adult cat waiting at Bouguenais) in Nantes.

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 LYZA, answered.

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