Perle

Female · Young · 1 year

Perle, just 1 year old, was a wonderful mom to her three kittens: Miss Calico, Brume, and Smoky. Placed in foster care with them to regain her strength, she is now back at the shelter. Perle arrived very thin: she weighed only 2 kg. Despite the good care and attention of her foster family, she remained a very slender little cat. With her kittens, Perle was an especially gentle and caring mom. With humans, she seeks their affection and loves cuddles, which she also seeks. With children? Perle is simply perfect! Patient, she lets herself be approached and will share all her gentleness with them. You will have understood: Perle really lives up to her name. She is a real gem of kindness!

PERLE À seulement 1 an, Perle a été une maman formidable pour ses trois petits : Miss Calico, Brume et Smoky. Placée en famille d’accueil avec eux pour reprendre des forces, elle est aujourd’hui de retour au refuge. Perle est arrivée très maigre : elle ne pesait que 2 kg. Malgré les bons soins et toute l’attention de sa famille d’accueil, elle est restée une petite minette très fine. Avec ses chatons, Perle était une maman particulièrement douce et attentionnée. Avec les humains, elle recherche leur affection et adore les câlins que d’ailleurs elle recherche. Avec les enfants ? Perle est tout simplement parfaite ! Patiente, elle se laisse volontiers approcher et partagera avec eux toute sa douceur. Vous l’aurez compris : Perle porte vraiment bien son prénom. C’est une véritable perle de gentillesse!

About Perle

What life with Perle looks like

Perle is a young adult dog waiting at APA63 Clermont-Ferrand in Clermont-Ferrand.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷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 Perle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Perle?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APA63 Clermont-Ferrand handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Perle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Perle if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APA63 Clermont-Ferrand 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 Perle already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs 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 Perle 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 APA63 Clermont-Ferrand early rather than rehoming privately; they know Perle 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.
