Adopt Poutchini

Mixed Breed · Male

Poutchini is a male cat born in 2010. He was entrusted to us by a family that unfortunately lost their home and could no longer take care of him. He is calm, gentle and close to humans. He has adapted quite easily to his new environment. He is a bit of a glutton and prefers wet food in sauce to dry kibble. He is a very kind cat who loves cuddles, is clean and doesn't cause any trouble. However, he has been diagnosed with a serious illness (intestine cancer). He is currently undergoing treatment. He has lost a lot of weight... But he is a little "fighter". His foster family is currently taking care of him. Thanks to your sponsorship, Poutchini will be able to receive the veterinary care he needs. He thanks you in advance.

Poutchini est un chat mâle né en 2010. Il nous a été confié par une famille qui avait malheureusement perdu son logement et ne pouvait plus s’en occuper. Il est calme, doux et proche de l’humain. Il s’est adapté assez facilement à son nouvel environnement. Il est un peu gourmand et préfère l’alimentation humide en sauce aux croquettes. C’est un chat très gentil qui aime les câlins, qui est propre et ne fait pas de bêtises. Il a toutefois été diagnostiqué avec une maladie grave (cancer des intestins). Il est actuellement sous traitement. Il a beaucoup maigri… Mais c’est un petit « combattant ». Sa famille d’accueil en prend actuellement soin. Grâce à votre parrainage, Poutchini pourra recevoir les soins vétérinaires dont il a besoin. Il vous en remercie d’avance.

About Poutchini

What life with Poutchini looks like

Poutchini is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 in Paris.

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 Poutchini, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poutchini?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Poutchini on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poutchini if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 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 Poutchini 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 Poutchini 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 Club de Défense des Animaux Paris 12 early rather than rehoming privately; they know Poutchini 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.
