VOLTA

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 5 months

Volta was rescued from the street with his brothers at the age of 5 months. You have understood, so it has been a little while now that we have Volta at home; he and his brothers arrived very timidly. Today Volta has made progress. He is approachable, plays, and no longer runs away. Unfortunately, he now suffers from a chronic cat flu. He is constantly runny-nosed! If you are looking for a young kitten who is immediately affectionate, purring, etc., this will not be the best choice. We are not giving up; he has already made a lot of progress and will continue to improve through play and food; it just needs to be given time. You can of course come visit Volta and help with his socialization during our shifts on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 2:30 pm to 5:30 pm.

FR·Show original

Volta a été sauvé de la rue avec ses frères Newton et Archimède, à l’âge de 5 mois. Archimède a été adopté car il était le moins craintif des 3. Volta et Newton étant les plus craintifs ils sont restés avec nous. Aujourd’hui Volta a fait des progrès. Il est approchable, il joue et ne s’enfuit plus. Malheureusement il souffre maintenant d’un coryza chronique. Il est perpétuellement enrhumé ! Si vous cherchez un jeune chat tout de suite très câlin, ronron etc… Ca ne sera pas le meilleur choix. Nous ne désespérons pas il a déjà fait beaucoup de progrès et continuera de progresser grâce aux jeux, à la nourriture, il faut simplement lui laisser le temps. (et assumer un chat qui éternue) Vous pouvez bien sûr venir rendre visite à Volta et l’aider dans sa sociabilisation lors de nos permanences les mercredis et samedis de 14h30 à 17h30. Le parrainage est possible : – Entièrement en ligne sur la plateforme HelloAsso avec paiement 100% sécurisé (prélèvement mensuel possible). – Directement au refuge lors des permanences.

About VOLTA

What life with VOLTA looks like

VOLTA is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Refuge Le Chat Et La Vie in Louvigny.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇷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 VOLTA, answered.

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