Océan

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 6 years

Cerise and Océan are brother and sister, inseparable, and must go to the same family. When they arrived, both very shy, Cerise becomes more affectionate while Océan is still a bit reserved. But there's no doubt that in a caring environment, he will quickly follow in his sister's footsteps!

FR·Show original

Cerise et Océan sont frère et soeur, inséparables, et doivent partir dans la même famille. Mais nul doute que dans un milieu bienveillant, il suivra rapidement les traces de sa soeur !

About Océan

What life with Océan looks like

Océan is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Association Secours Protection Animale (Manosque) in Manosque.

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 Océan, answered.

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