Adopt NAYA

Female

NAYA was found alone near a trash can in Mamoudzou. Since then, she has grown well and reveals her tender and endearing nature every day. She is a calm, affectionate kitten who is still a bit reserved when she doesn't know someone. Very close to her foster family, she likes to sleep with them and even has the funny habit of scratching their hair to show her affection. NAYA appreciates human presence and is looking for a family available to share her daily life with. Curious and observant, she also enjoys playing with respectful children. She may gently bite during playtime, but always without aggression. Very discreet, she rarely meows. Accustomed to living in a house with a garden, she sometimes enjoys the outdoors but prefers to stay inside, close to the person who takes care of her.

Naya a été trouvée toute seule près d'une poubelle à Mamoudzou. Depuis, elle a bien grandi et révèle chaque jour son caractère tendre et attachant. C'est une chatonne calme, câline et encore un peu réservée lorsqu'elle ne connaît pas. Très proche de sa famille d'accueil, elle aime dormir avec elle et a même la drôle d'habitude de gratouiller les cheveux pour montrer son affection. Naya apprécie la présence humaine et recherche une famille disponible avec qui partager son quotidien. Curieuse et observatrice, elle aime aussi jouer avec les enfants respectueux. Elle peut mordiller légèrement pendant les moments de jeu, mais toujours sans agressivité. Très discrète, elle miaule rarement. Habituée à vivre en maison avec jardin, elle profite parfois de l'extérieur mais préfère largement rester à l'intérieur, près de la personne qui s'occupe d'elle.

About NAYA

What life with NAYA looks like

NAYA is a small adult cat waiting at SPA Vannes in Vannes.

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.

Note from the shelter: Sensitive soul requiring patient, gentle family and secure environment

🇫🇷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 NAYA, answered.

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