SAMMY

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

SAMMY is a big and gentle cat who was found outdoors. Spotted by a kind resident concerned about his emaciated state, he finally received the care he deserved. Today, he needs a calm and loving home to fully enjoy his days, warm and safe. He is a social cat who appreciates human company and knows how to win hearts. A neutered male cat of about 5 years old, SAMMY is FIV+, and suffers from kidney insufficiency and a cardiac murmur. He must remain indoors or have access to a secure, enclosed outdoor space. He follows a daily treatment and eats specific dry kibble. We are looking for a SOS loving family willing to offer him comfort and peace. No special experience needed—just lots of tenderness and a willingness to give him a beautiful life.

Sammy est un grand doux qui a été trouvé dehors. Repéré par une habitante touchée par sa maigreur, il a enfin reçu les soins qu'il méritait. Aujourd'hui, il a besoin d'un foyer calme et bienveillant pour profiter pleinement de ses journées, au chaud et en sécurité. C'est un chat sociable, qui apprécie la compagnie humaine et sait se faire apprécier. Chat mâle castré d'environ 5 ans, Sammy est porteur du FIV, et souffre d'une insuffisance rénale ainsi que d'un souffle cardiaque. Il doit rester en intérieur ou avoir accès dehors dans un espace clos sécurisé. Il suit un traitement quotidien et mange des croquettes spécifiques. Nous cherchons pour lui une famille SOS aimante, prête à lui offrir confort et tranquillité. Pas besoin d'expérience particulière — juste beaucoup de douceur et une volonté de lui offrir une belle vie.

About SAMMY

What life with SAMMY looks like

SAMMY is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Sarreguemines in Sarreguemines.

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 SAMMY, answered.

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