To ADOPT - A little heart to tame Found wandering, this little cat unfortunately arrived at the shelter with a great fear of humans. Since his arrival, he has been extremely fearful. For the moment, he does not seek contact at all and seems terrified by our presence. It will take him a lot of time, patience and gentleness to learn to trust. Do not expect him to cuddle from the first days, but simply give him time to evolve at his own pace, without ever rushing him. We are looking for a calm, patient and caring family for him, ready to invest in a beautiful adventure, even if the path to trust will be long. Because every little heart deserves a chance, even those who are still afraid of us.

À L'ADOPTION – Un petit cœur à apprivoiser Trouvé errant, ce petit chat est malheureusement arrivé au refuge avec une grande peur de l'humain. Depuis son arrivée, il se montre extrêmement craintif. Pour le moment, il ne recherche absolument pas le contact et semble terrorisé par notre présence. Il lui faudra beaucoup de temps, de patience et de douceur pour apprendre à faire confiance. Il ne faudra pas attendre de lui des câlins dès les premiers jours, mais simplement lui laisser le temps d'évoluer à son rythme, sans jamais le brusquer. Nous recherchons pour lui une famille calme, patiente et bienveillante, prête à s'investir dans une belle aventure, même si le chemin vers la confiance sera long. Parce que chaque petit cœur mérite sa chance, même ceux qui ont encore peur de nous.

About Sushi

What life with Sushi looks like

Sushi is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Étalondes in Etalondes.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sushi, answered.

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