How do I contact the shelter about Upsilon?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Assistance Animaux en Détresse handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Upsilon on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Upsilon if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Assistance Animaux en Détresse 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 Upsilon 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 Upsilon 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 Assistance Animaux en Détresse early rather than rehoming privately; they know Upsilon 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.

Upsilon

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Neutered, identified, vaccinated. Dog unknown dogs not okay for young children. Access to the outside is preferable. In foster family in Saint André des Eaux (22). He certainly had a family before; one day he arrived already neutered in the garden of his deceased grandmother, where Utah was also present... We will never know where he came from or what happened to him. Owner searches were made with no results. The day we took Utah, we also took his two companions: Upsilon and a stray ULHAN; all three were destined for certain death... Utah had just escaped... Upsilon is also a nice cat. He is sociable, even if timid when someone he doesn't know enters the cattery. But when he is trustful, he is a love! He loves to lie on his back and offer his big belly for petting... It's true he is overweight, but inactivity and boredom of life in the cattery are partly to blame... Like his friend Utah, he deserves a loving and responsible family. Available for adoption Adoption fee: 180€ Adoption process to follow (questionnaire, meeting with the cat, home visit) Adoption application form:

castré, identifié, vacciné 🐶 ententes chiens non connues 👨‍👩‍👧 pas ok jeunes enfants 🌲 accès à l’extérieur préférable En famille d’accueil à Saint André des Eaux (22) Il a certainement eu une famille par le passé; il est arrivé un beau jour déjà castré dans le jardin de la mamie décédée, où se trouvait UTAH entre autres… On ne saura jamais d'où il sort ni ce qui lui est arrivé. Des recherches de propriétaire ont été faites qui n'ont eu aucun retour. Le jour où nous avons emmené UTAH, nous avons pris aussi ses deux compagnons de galère: UPSILON et un sauvageon ULHAN; tous les 3 étaient promis à une mort certaine…, UTAH venait d'y échapper… UPSILON est un gentil chat aussi. Il est sociable, même si craintif quand quelqu'un qu'il ne connaît pas entre dans la chatterie. Mais quand il est en confiance, c'est un amour! Il adore se coucher sur le dos et offrir son gros bidou aux caresses… C'est vrai qu'il est en surpoids, mais l'inactivité et l'ennui de la vie en chatterie y sont pour quelque chose… Comme son copain UTAH, il mérite une famille aimante et responsable. Disponible à l'adoption Frais d'adoption : 180€ Processus d'adoption à suivre (questionnaire, rencontre avec le chat, visite du domicile) Formulaire de demande d'adoption :
