About NOUBA

What life with NOUBA looks like

NOUBA is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Chats là là de Valréas in France.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting NOUBA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about NOUBA?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Chats là là de Valréas handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw NOUBA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt NOUBA if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Chats là là de Valréas 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is NOUBA 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 NOUBA 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 Chats là là de Valréas early rather than rehoming privately; they know NOUBA 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.
