Adopt RICHARD

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

RICHARD arrived at the shelter via the pound, as our little one was found wandering, and no one seemed to claim him... Not being identified, the pound couldn't contact his previous family... Since our little one is FIV-positive, he can only share a home with other feline companions like him. We promised the handsome RICHARD that a kind family would visit him soon! Could it be you? Come meet him!

RICHARD est arrivé au refuge via la fourrière, car notre loulou a été trouvé errant, et personne n'a semblé l'avoir réclamé... N'étant pas identifié, impossible pour la fourrière de prendre contact avec son ancienne famille... Etant donné que notre loulou est porteur du FIV, il ne pourra partager son foyer qu'avec des copains comme lui. Nous avons promis au beau RICHARD qu'une famille au grand cœur viendrait prochainement lui rendre visite ! C'est peut-être vous, non ? Venez donc le rencontrer !

About RICHARD

What life with RICHARD looks like

RICHARD is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Le Mans (Yvré-L'Évêque).

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 RICHARD, answered.

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