STITCH

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 7 years

Stitch est un chat avec un caractère bien à lui. Il apprécie les moments de contact, mais les caresses doivent rester courtes : il peut rapidement montrer qu’il souhaite qu’on le laisse tranquille. Il ne maîtrise pas toujours très bien les codes qui permettent de prévenir qu’il en a assez. Il faudra donc savoir respecter son espace, observer ses réactions et ne pas insister. Pour cette raison, nous recherchons pour lui un foyer sans enfants, avec des personnes connaissant les chats et prêtes à respecter son tempérament. Stitch n’est certainement pas le chat qui conviendra à tout le monde, mais la famille qui saura le comprendre et respecter ses limites pourra construire avec lui une belle relation, à sa façon.

About STITCH

What life with STITCH looks like

STITCH is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at SPA Poitiers in Poitiers.

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 STITCH, answered.

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