Adopt Tomy

Male · Senior · 13 years

Tomy is a affectionate little guy who came from Lésignan. He is affectionate with humans and just wants to find a home. He carries the Calici virus, so it is imperative that he does not have outdoor access; he must therefore avoid contact with other animals of the same species, unless they too carry the virus.

Read original (fr)

Tomy est un affectueux loulou qui nous vient de Lésignan. Il se montre câlin avec l'homme et n'attend que de trouver un foyer. Porteur du Calici virus, il est impératif qu'il n'est pas d'accès extérieur, il devra en effet éviter les contacts avec d'autres congénères, sauf si eux même sont porteurs du virus.

About Tomy

What life with Tomy looks like

Tomy is a medium-sized senior cat waiting at SPA Perpignan in Perpignan.

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.

Note from the shelter: Calici virus carrier - must be indoor only and avoid contact with other cats unless they are also virus carriers

🇫🇷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 Tomy, answered.

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