THELMA

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

THELMA is a very shy and quiet kitten. She never allows herself to be petted and runs away when she feels we are too close, but she is a glutton and approaches for the food... THELMA is on the refuge's premises with her daughter, they are very close and often take naps together. THELMA must only go outside in a secure area. The ideal family for THELMA is one that is not afraid to open their home to a very shy cat that needs to gain confidence. THELMA arrived at the refuge in 2014 with her kittens CLYDE (adopted) and BONNIE (still at the refuge). Estimated date of birth: 01/01/2012 Coat color: Black, medium-length fur Arrival at the refuge: 30/03/2014 Vaccination: Vaccinated against feline leukemia but not up to date Identification: Identified by microchip Please forgive us in advance for being selective in adoptions, but we invest a lot of time, love, money, and energy into these rescues.

About THELMA

What life with THELMA looks like

THELMA is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Chat Quiberon in Quiberon.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇫🇷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 THELMA, answered.

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