TABATA

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 5 years

TABATA is a young lady who has had a tough start in life. Indeed, she was mistreated. Personality: Due to her past, at first, TABATA may have some reactions when she is petted to show that she is not comfortable. But once she has given her trust, she proves to be a great little cat! Very playful and affectionate! Her favorite sport is climbing (a sliding window should be avoided). Sociability: TABATA will prefer to be the only cat in the family. She will need some time to adapt to dogs. Cleanliness: TABATA is clean, she knows the litter box well. Diet: TABATA eats dry kibble and a little wet food. Placement: We are looking for a family with experience with cats, without young children, without another cat in the home, and living in a house with a secure garden, in a quiet environment. In foster care with Claudine.

Tabata est une jeune demoiselle qui a bien mal commencé sa vie. En effet, cette dernière a été maltraitée. Caractère : Dû à son passé, au départ, Tabata peut avoir quelques réactions quand on la caresse pour manifester qu’elle n’est pas à l’aise. Mais une fois qu’elle a accordé sa confiance elle s’avère être une super minette ! Très joueuse et câline ! Son sport favori est l’escalade (fenêtre en oscillo-battant à proscrire). Sociabilité : Tabata préfèrera être le seul chat de la famille. Et elle aura besoin d’un temps d’adaptation avec les chiens. Propreté : Tabata est propre, elle connaît bien la litière. Alimentation : Tabata mange des croquettes et un peu de pâtée. Placement : Nous recherchons une famille ayant déjà de l’expérience avec les chats, sans enfants en bas âge, sans chat dans le foyer et habitant en maison avec jardin clos, en environnement calme. En accueil chez Claudine.

About TABATA

What life with TABATA looks like

TABATA is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Refuge Rêves de chiens in Viry-Châtillon.

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 TABATA, answered.

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