Adopt Panda

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 1 year

Character: Gentle Panda arrived at our shelter on the 15th of April. He had been wandering in Saint Diéry for several months before being taken to the shelter. He is a bit timid at the moment but not aggressive. We'll have to see how he evolves in the cattery, but without a doubt, with his long fur (so highly sought after by adopters), he will win someone over very quickly.

Caractère: Gentil Panda est arrivé le 15 ami dernier au refuge. Il trainait depuis plusieurs mois sur Saint Diéry avant d'être emmené au refuge. Timide pour l'instant mais pas agressif. On attend de voir comment il va évoluer en chatterie mais sans nul doute qu'avec ses poils longs (tant recherchés des adoptants) il fasse craquer quelqu'un très vite.

About Panda

What life with Panda looks like

Panda is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Refuge des Bérauds (Romans-sur-Isère) in Romans-sur-Isère.

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 Panda, answered.

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