Adopt Roussette

Female · Adult · 6 years

Roussette just arrived from a place where she was found with Grisette and Tiramisu. Fed by the human, they have never been socialized. Roussette is reluctant in the presence of humans and will need a lot of time to trust. A friendly cat at home would be an advantage to help her thrive. With time, Roussette could become more gentle ;)

Roussette nous arrive tout juste d'un terrain où elle a été trouvée avec Grisette et Tiramisu. Nourris par l'humain, ils n'ont cependant jamais été habitués au contact. Roussette se montre réticente à la présence humaine, elle aura besoin de beaucoup de temps pour accorder sa confiance. Un chat sociable au domicile serait un plus pour faciliter son épanouissement. Avec du temps, Roussette pourrait réussir à s'adoucir ;)

About Roussette

What life with Roussette looks like

Roussette is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at SPA Plouhinec in Plouhinec.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires socialization and patience due to lack of human contact

🇫🇷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 Roussette, answered.

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