Mina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 10 years

Rescued from a site in Essonne, run by Emmaüs, these two cats had been subjected to mistreatment by socially disadvantaged individuals. Although they were fed, it was likely only sparingly, and they had never seen a veterinarian. This explains why Mina has necrotic ears—ears that could have been treated if action had been taken sooner. Despite all this, they are very sociable, eager for cuddles, respect, and companionship. The association commits to providing veterinary support to future adopters for these cats. Mina can be adopted alone into a home without other pets or young children. She’s an adorable tabby cat, approximately 10 to 12 years old. She quickly settled into her foster family and proved to be gentle and affectionate. She’s calm, sleeps a lot, but also loves playing with yarn balls! Her ears have a cardboard-like appearance because, due to lack of care, she developed otitis media. 🩺 Health: Up-to-date on vaccinations, dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, and tested negative for FIV/FELV.

Issus d'un sauvetage dans l’Essonne, sur un site Emmaüs, ces deux chats ont subi de la maltraitance par des cas sociaux . Ils étaient certes nourris, mais sans doute peu, et n'avaient jamais vu un vétérinaire. Ceci explique pour Mina ses oreilles nécrosées qui auraient pu être soignées si cela avait été pris à temps. Malgré tout cela, ils sont très sociables, en demande de câlins, de respect, de présence. L'association s'engage pour eux à faire un accompagnement vétérinaire auprès des futurs adoptants. Mina peut être adoptée seule dans un foyer sans autre animal, ni enfants en bas âge. Adorable chatte tigrée d’environ 10 à 12 ans. Elle a très vite pris ses marques dans sa famille d’accueil et s’est révélée douce et câline. Elle est calme, dort beaucoup, mais aime également jouer avec les pelotes de laine ! Ses oreilles ont un aspect cartonné, car, faute de soin, elle a développé des othématomes. 🩺 Santé : En ordre de vaccins, déparasités, stérilisés, identifiés et dépistés FIV / FELV négatifs.

About Mina

What life with Mina looks like

Mina is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at La Voie Féline in la voie feline.

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 Mina, answered.

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