Adopt SWIFT

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

SWIFT arrived at our shelter after being evicted by her owner. She lived with over 80 other animals of the same species in an unsanitary apartment. She is a shy little cat who will need a calm home. We do not know how she gets along with children or dogs. She can live in an apartment or a house. Having always been around other cats, it would be preferable for her to be adopted into a home that already has a cat, or with one of her companions. She is currently undergoing treatment for ear mites. Pending spaying/neutering, she will be reservable after an initial meeting at the shelter.

Swift est arrivée au refuge suite à l'expulsion de sa propriétaire. Elle vivait avec plus de 80 de ses congénères dans un appartement insalubre. C'est une minette timide qui aura besoin d'un foyer calme. Nous ne connaissons pas ses ententes avec les enfants ni les chiens Elle pourra vivre en appartement ou en maison. Ayant toujours été entourée d'autres chats, il serait préférable qu'elle soit adoptée dans un foyer ayant déjà un chat, ou bien avec l'un de ses compagnons . Elle est actuellement en traitement pour une gale auriculaire. En attente de stérilisation, elle sera réservable après une première rencontre au refuge.

About SWIFT

What life with SWIFT looks like

SWIFT is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Chamarande in Chamarande.

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 SWIFT, answered.

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