Serge

Mixed Breed · Male

Serge is one of our recent rescues; he is an extremely kind cat, very close to humans, but unfortunately, he fell into a selfish and negligent family who abandoned him at the clinic rather than paying for his care. What happened to him to be brought to the emergency room at night by these people...? No one will know. As you can see in the photo, Serge was lethargic. He suffered from a long-term infection in his tail that was not treated and worsened to the point where he had to have the tip of his tail amputated. Despite a complicated start, he is recovering from his amputation and has already adapted well to his new environment. Serge is 8 and a half years old, he is affectionate, loving, and very close to humans. He follows his new human friend around the different rooms, seeks contact, and loves to snuggle up against her on the couch (or settle right on top of her to enjoy cuddles!). He also waits for her at the door when she comes home. He is quite active, and he likes to play from time to time. Serge will be comfortable in a family that appreciates cuddly and human-oriented cats. In return, he will offer many cuddles, presence, and affection. He is up to date on his vaccinations, dewormed, neutered, identified, and tested FELV and FIV negative.

Serge fait partie de nos récents sauvetages ; c'est un chat extrêmement gentil, très proche de l'humain mais qui a eu le malheur de tomber dans une famille égoïste et négligente, qui a préféré l'abandonner en clinique plutôt que de payer ses soins. Que lui est-il arrivé pour être amené aux urgences de nuit par ces gens... ? nul ne le saura. Comme vous pouvez le voir sur la photo, Serge était prostré. Il souffrait entre autres d’une infection de longue durée à sa queue qui n'était pas soignée et s'est aggravée au point de devoir lui amputer l'extrémité de la queue. Malgré un début un peu compliqué, il se remet de son amputation et s'est déjà bien adapté à son nouvel environnement. Serge à 8 ans et demi, il est câlin, affectueux et très proche de l'humain. Il suit sa nouvelle amie humaine dans les différentes pièces, cherche le contact et adore se coller contre elle sur le canapé (ou s’installer carrément sur elle pour profiter de câlins ! ). Il l'attend aussi devant la porte quand elle rentre à la maison. Il est assez actif, et il aime jouer de temps en temps. Serge sera à l'aise dans une famille qui apprécie les chats câlins et proches de leur humain. Il offrira en retour beaucoup de câlins, de présence et de tendresse. En ordre de vaccins, déparasité, stérilisé, identifié et dépisté FELV et FIV négatif

About Serge

What life with Serge looks like

Serge is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at La Voie Féline in la voie feline.

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 Serge, answered.

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