PRISTINA

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Une maman qui apprend doucement à faire confiance... Prise en charge par notre fourrière avec ses deux chatons, cette jolie maman reste encore méfiante envers l’humain. Mais chaque jour, elle fait de petits progrès. Nous avons choisi de respecter son rythme, sans la brusquer, en lui laissant l’autonomie dont elle a besoin pour observer, comprendre et venir à nous lorsqu’elle se sent prête. Et ça fonctionne ! Elle se détend de plus en plus et commence doucement à comprendre qu’ici, personne ne lui veut de mal. Elle aura besoin d’une famille patiente, douce et bienveillante, prête à lui laisser le temps de s’ouvrir et de construire une relation de confiance. Elle n’attend pas qu’on la change. Elle a simplement besoin qu’on lui montre, à son rythme, que l’humain peut aussi être synonyme de sécurité et d’amour. Peut-être serez-vous la personne qui lui permettra de découvrir cette nouvelle vie ?

About PRISTINA

What life with PRISTINA looks like

PRISTINA is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Vitré in Vitre.

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 PRISTINA, answered.

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