Twist

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Twist has been found and has never been claimed, despite extensive searches. He was undoubtedly abandoned, as he’s a cat who has been very close to humans: he’s highly sociable and affectionate. He’s a small, very energetic cat who needs plenty of opportunities to burn off his energy—playing, running, jumping, chasing flies... anything goes when it comes to having fun! During playtime or after a quiet day, his emotions can sometimes spill over because he struggles to channel them effectively. He’ll need a stimulating environment with lots of enrichment (fun food bowls, self-directed toys, cat trees, shelves, scratching posts, etc.) and patient humans who can help him better manage his emotions by providing him with appropriate activities. Twist will likely adapt to almost any situation—as long as we offer him a stable pace of life (sudden changes are hard for him to handle) and an environment that’s rich enough and provides sufficient outlets for his energy. Given his current behavior, we’d prefer a family living in a house with outdoor access and no other cats.

Twist a été trouvé et n'a jamais été réclamé, malgré des recherches extensives. Il a sûrement été abandonné, car c'est un chat qui a connu les humain·es de près : il est très sociable et câlin. C'est un petit chat très énergique qui a besoin de beaucoup se dépenser : jouer, courir, sauter, chasser les mouches… tout est bon pour s'amuser ! Pendant le jeu ou après une journée peu animée, les émotions peuvent parfois déborder car il a du mal à les canaliser. Il lui faudra un environnement riche et beaucoup d'occupation (gamelle ludique, jeux en autonomie, arbres à chats, étagères, griffoir, etc.) et des humain·es patient·es qui l'aideront à mieux gérer ses émotions en lui apportant des activités adaptées. Twist pourra sûrement s'adapter à tout contexte tant qu'on lui offre un rythme de vie stable (les changements brutaux sont difficiles à gérer) et un environnement suffisamment riche et des activités pour se dépenser. Au vu de son comportement actuel, nous privilégierons une famille en maison avec un extérieur et sans autres chats.

About Twist

What life with Twist looks like

Twist is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at ADPK - Association Des P in adpk association des p tits korrigans.

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 Twist, answered.

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