Adopt Nestor

Male · Adult · 10 years

Nestor arrived with us following the passing of his owner. Born in 2016, he is our beloved grandcat: a big, gentle, very affectionate feline who above all seeks the presence and tenderness of humans. He is an ideal companion, a true pot of sweetness. He suffers from cardiac issues requiring follow-up, but this does not prevent him from enjoying life and appreciating each moment of calm and tenderness. Nestor is also positive for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). He must live indoors without access to the outdoors and can only cohabitate with another FIV cat or be the sole cat in the household. He deserves to find the warmth of a loving home, a considerate family ready to offer him stability, care, and lots of love for a second chance.

Nestor est arrivé chez nous suite au décès de sa propriétaire. Né en 2016, c’est notre papy chat d’amour : un grand doux, très câlin et affectueux, qui recherche avant tout la présence et la tendresse de l’humain. C’est un compagnon idéal, véritable pot de colle plein de douceur. Il souffre de problèmes cardiaques nécessitant un suivi, mais cela ne l’empêche pas de profiter de la vie et d’apprécier chaque moment de calme et de tendresse. Nestor est également positif au sida du chat (FIV). Il devra vivre en intérieur sans accès à l’extérieur et pourra cohabiter uniquement avec un autre chat FIV ou être le seul chat du foyer. Il mérite de retrouver la chaleur d’un foyer aimant, une famille attentionnée prête à lui offrir stabilité, soins et beaucoup d’amour pour sa seconde chance.

About Nestor

What life with Nestor looks like

Nestor is a 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.

🇫🇷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 Nestor, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nestor?
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 Nestor on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nestor 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 Nestor 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 Nestor 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 Nestor 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.
