Shiny

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Jany arrived at our shelter after being abandoned. She is a shy cat at first, but once she gains trust, she becomes affectionate and friendly. She does not like handling or being carried in arms, but she will be eager for cuddles on the couch with her new family. She is not comfortable around young children, but can live peacefully with respectful teenagers. With other cats, she has her preferences and may get along or not, case by case. However, she cannot live in a household with a dog as she does not get along with them at all. She is now looking for a calm family for life who will respect her needs.

Shiny est arrivée chez nous suite à un abandon. C'est une chatte timide au premier abord mais qui une fois en confiance se montre câline et sympathique. Elle n'aime pas les manipulations et être portée dans les bras mais elle sera partante pour une séance de câlins sur le canapé de sa nouvelle future famille. Elle n'est pas à l'aise avec les jeunes enfants, mais elle pourra vivre sans problème avec des adolescents respectueux. Avec ses congénères, elle a ses têtes et peut s'entendre ou non avec, c'est au cas par cas. En revanche elle ne pourra vivre dans un foyer avec un chien car elle ne s'entends pas du tout avec eux. Elle recherche désormais une famille calme pour la vie et qui saura respecter ses besoins.

About Shiny

What life with Shiny looks like

Shiny is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Draguignan (Flayosc) in Draguignan.

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 Shiny, answered.

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