Accueil Simone Catégorie : chat DescriptionInformations complémentaires Simone est une minette discrète et craintive, qui se montre encore très réservée au refuge. Lorsqu’elle se sent en insécurité, elle est plutôt dans la fuite et cherche facilement à se cacher. Il faut donc beaucoup de calme et de patience pour pouvoir l’approcher sans qu’elle ne s’enfuie. Simone aura besoin d’une famille compréhensive, prête à lui laisser le temps nécessaire pour prendre confiance. Il faudra respecter son rythme, sans jamais la brusquer ni forcer le contact. Avec de la douceur, de la stabilité et beaucoup de patience, elle pourra progressivement comprendre qu’elle peut se sentir en sécurité auprès de l’humain. Une petite minette encore très sur la réserve, mais qui mérite qu’on lui laisse le temps de s’ouvrir.

About Simone

What life with Simone looks like

Simone is a young adult dog waiting at SPA de Loire Atlantique in Nantes.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Simone, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Simone?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA de Loire Atlantique handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Simone on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Simone if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA de Loire Atlantique 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Simone already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most dogs 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 Simone 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 de Loire Atlantique early rather than rehoming privately; they know Simone 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.
