TAO

Mixed Breed · Male

Tao is an old little wildcat who remains somewhat wary of humans. He still needs time and especially patience to reveal the future loving cat he will undoubtedly become. We will avoid young children who risk causing him to panic. For apartment living with a balcony or in a pavilion, the presence of another cat in the household would be a plus for him.

FR·Show original

Ancien petit sauvageon qui reste un peu méfiant à l'égard des êtres humains, Tao a encore besoin de temps et surtout de patience pour dévoiler le future matou d'amour qu'il deviendra sans doute. Nous éviterons les jeunes enfants qui risquent de le faire paniquer. Pour vie en appartement avec balcon ou en pavillon, la présence d'un autre chat au foyer serait un plus pour lui.

About TAO

What life with TAO looks like

TAO is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Plaisir in Plaisir.

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 TAO, answered.

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