How do I contact the shelter about Velours?

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 Velours on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Velours 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 Velours 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 Velours 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 Velours 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.

Velours

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

ADOPTION IN PAIR with her mother Yuna, spayed, identified, vaccinated, negative for FIV/FELV 🐶dog interactions unknown 👨‍👩‍👧 Ok calm and respectful children 🌲 outdoor access not mandatory in foster family in Quévert (22) Velours is one of Yuna's kittens. The small family had been reported in a garden among the garbage, the owners of Yuna having let her give birth outside and then moving away leaving them behind. Velours is a very playful but shy kitten. Once trust is gained, he will be very affectionate. He will need a friend who is good with him to reassure him and build his confidence. Velours has remained very close to his mother Yuna, they sleep together all the time. We would like a double adoption for this nice pair. Available for adoption Adoption fee: 180€ Adoption process to follow (questionnaire, meeting with the cat, home visit) Adoption application form:

ADOPTION EN DUO avec sa mère Yuna castré, identifié, vacciné test FIV/ FELV négatif 🐶ententes chiens non connues 👨‍👩‍👧 Ok enfants calmes et respectueux 🌲 accès à l’extérieur pas obligatoire en famille d'accueil à Quévert (22) Velours est l’un des chatons de Yuna. La petite famille avait été signalé dans un jardin au milieu des détritus, les propriétaires de Yuna l’ayant laissé faire ses chatons dehors et ayant déménagé en les laissant sur place. Velours est un chaton très joueur mais timide. Une fois en confiance, il se montrera très câlin. Il aura besoin d’un copain bien dans ses pattes pour le rassurer et lui donner confiance. Velours est resté très proche de sa mère Yuna, ils dorment tout le temps ensemble. Nous aimerions une double adoption pour ce joli duo. 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 :
