TEXAS

European Shorthair · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

TEXAS is a little kitten who is a bit reserved at first but then comes looking for cuddles. When he sleeps, he likes to be cuddled. He loves playing with cats. He has 3 colors in the photos, which are not very clear: white, gray and black. He is okay with cats and dogs. To be adopted with a cat friend. Update as of 08/22/2024: TEXAS is a lovely cat. At first, you have to be gentle because when he doesn't know someone or if someone makes a sudden move, he will hide. Once he is trustful, he likes to be petted. He loves playing with the cats and kittens in the foster family. In fact, she thinks that his adoptive family should have another cat. He also plays with dogs. As he is quite shy, his foster family thinks he would be better off living in an apartment. In foster care with Karyne. Previously:

About TEXAS

What life with TEXAS looks like

TEXAS 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 TEXAS, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about TEXAS?
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 TEXAS on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt TEXAS 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 TEXAS 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 TEXAS 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 TEXAS 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.
