SCAR

Male · Adult · 5 years

SCAR is a very elusive cat who loves freedom and maintaining his independence. He would be happy to hunt vermin in exchange for a bowl of dry kibble and a cozy nook where he can rest. SCAR would suit a home that respects his need for autonomy, willing to provide him with a safe environment while allowing him to live his cat life freely.

About SCAR

What life with SCAR looks like

SCAR is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at SPA Mirepoix in Mirepoix.

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: Needs outdoor access and space to roam freely

🇫🇷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 SCAR, answered.

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