MAYA

Beagle · Female · Young · 2 years

MAYA was found wandering several months ago and unfortunately was never claimed. Just before her adoption, she was diagnosed with FIV. She underwent a long treatment, which is now completed. MAYA remains under surveillance and will need to have monthly blood tests for the next three months. Initially very timid, MAYA turned out to be a very affectionate, playful, and lively cat, a real little clown! Due to her history, she will need to be the only cat in the household. However, she can live with respectful children and with dogs that are accustomed to cats.

Maya a été trouvée errante il y a plusieurs mois et n’a malheureusement jamais été réclamée. Peu avant sa mise à l’adoption, elle a été diagnostiquée positive à la PIF. Elle a suivi un long traitement, aujourd’hui terminé. Maya reste toutefois sous surveillance et devra effectuer des prises de sang mensuelles pendant encore trois mois. Au départ très craintive, Maya s’est révélée être une chatte très affectueuse, joueuse et pleine de vie, un vrai petit clown ! En raison de son historique, elle devra être le seul chat du foyer. En revanche, elle pourra vivre avec des enfants respectueux ainsi qu’avec des chiens habitués aux chats.

About MAYA

What life with MAYA looks like

MAYA is a medium-sized young adult beagle cat waiting at SPA Thionville in Thionville.

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 MAYA, answered.

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