How do I contact the shelter about Roxy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Saint-Étienne Loire handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roxy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Roxy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Saint-Étienne Loire 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 Roxy 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 Roxy 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 Saint-Étienne Loire early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roxy 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.

Roxy

Female · Kitten · 6 months

🐾 Here’s a quick summary: Roxy is an adorable 4-month-old kitten with a tender heart, patiently waiting for her forever family. Initially a bit reserved, she takes her time observing before gradually opening up. Once she feels comfortable, she reveals a gentle, playful, and endearing personality. 💬 What you need to know about her: Roxy is a more discreet kitten than her friend Babygirl. Very playful, she loves spending time together with Babygirl and also enjoys playing with humans—though she keeps her distance at first. She shows her affection in her own way: when she settles down for a nap, she’ll happily let you approach her and enjoy a few gentle strokes. Curious by nature, she’s slowly learning to trust others and has even taken Babygirl as her role model, becoming more open to human interaction. The two are incredibly close, and adopting them together would be the perfect choice so they never have to be apart. 🏡 Her ideal home: Roxy will thrive in a patient and caring family that respects her pace and gives her all the time she needs to come out on her own terms. A calm and reassuring environment will allow her to fully blossom. If her future adopters could also welcome Babygirl into their home, that would be an added bonus for this inseparable duo. ❤️ Key takeaway: Roxy is a sweet, curious, and tender little cat who simply asks for a bit of time to show her full potential. With patience and love, she’ll become a wonderful companion. Watching her continue her journey alongside Babygirl would be a beautiful story waiting to be written.

🐾 Son petit résumé Roxy est une adorable petite chatte de 4 mois au cœur tendre, qui attend patiemment sa famille pour la vie. Un peu réservée au premier abord, elle prend le temps d’observer avant de se dévoiler. Une fois en confiance, elle révèle une personnalité douce, joueuse et attachante. 💬 Ce qu'il faut savoir sur elle Roxy est une chatonne plus discrète que sa copine Babygirl. Très joueuse, elle adore partager des moments avec elle et apprécie également les jeux avec les humains, même si elle garde ses distances au début. Elle est câline à sa manière : lorsqu’elle est installée pour une sieste, elle se laisse volontiers approcher pour profiter de quelques caresses. Curieuse, elle apprend progressivement à faire confiance et a même pris exemple sur Babygirl pour s’ouvrir davantage au contact humain. Toutes les deux sont très complices, et une adoption ensemble serait l’idéal pour ne pas les séparer. 🏡 Son foyer idéal Roxy aura besoin d’une famille patiente et bienveillante, capable de respecter son rythme et de lui laisser le temps de venir d’elle-même. Un environnement calme et rassurant lui permettra de s’épanouir pleinement. Si ses futurs adoptants peuvent également accueillir Babygirl, ce serait un véritable plus pour ce duo inséparable. ❤️ À retenir Roxy est une petite chatte douce, curieuse et pleine de tendresse, qui demande simplement un peu de temps pour montrer tout son potentiel. Avec de la patience et de l’amour, elle deviendra une merveilleuse compagne. La voir continuer son aventure avec Babygirl serait une belle histoire à écrire.

About Roxy

What life with Roxy looks like

Roxy is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at SPA Saint-Étienne Loire in Saint-Étienne.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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.
