Sasha

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 10 years

A gentle and calm family for this lovely tabby 🐾 This lovely tabby cat, around 10 years old, came to us due to a problem with cleanliness that appeared after being severely stressed by another neighborhood cat that was bullying her. She is naturally reserved and sensitive, and still feels a bit stressed since arriving here. However, when she feels confident, she reveals a completely different side of her personality: she is calm, gentle, and endearing. ❤️ Due to her stress, she is currently receiving treatment to help her regain more serenity. 🏡 We are looking for a calm home for her, without other animals and without children, with people who are present and available to give her the time and attention she needs. She will also need to be able to continue to enjoy the outdoors. We want to offer her a stable and reassuring environment, in which she can settle in at her own pace and regain a peaceful life. 🐱💕 📞 For any additional information or if you are interested, please contact us only by phone at 02. ❗ Please do not contact us by message, email or via social media.

🐾 Une famille douce et calme pour cette jolie minette 🐾 Cette jolie minette tigrée d’environ 10 ans est arrivée chez nous en raison de problèmes de malpropreté apparus après avoir été fortement stressée par un autre chat du quartier qui la malmenait. De nature réservée et sensible, elle reste encore un peu stressée depuis son arrivée chez nous. Lorsqu’elle se sent en confiance, elle révèle cependant une toute autre facette de sa personnalité : elle est calme, douce et attachante. ❤️ En raison de son stress, elle bénéficie actuellement d’un traitement afin de l’aider à retrouver davantage de sérénité. 🏡 Nous recherchons pour elle un foyer calme, sans autres animaux et sans enfants, avec des personnes présentes et disponibles pour lui accorder le temps et l’attention dont elle a besoin. Elle devra également pouvoir continuer à profiter de l’extérieur. Nous souhaitons avant tout lui offrir un environnement stable et rassurant, dans lequel elle pourra prendre ses marques à son rythme et retrouver une vie paisible. 🐱💕 📞 Pour toute information complémentaire ou en cas d’intérêt, merci de nous contacter uniquement par téléphone au 02. ❗ Merci de ne pas nous contacter par message, e-mail ou via les réseaux sociaux.

About Sasha

What life with Sasha looks like

Sasha is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA Valais in Uvrier.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sasha, answered.

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