Winter ♂️​

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Identifié, stérilisé, vacciné test FIV/FELV négatifs 🐶 ententes chiens non connues 👨‍👩‍👧 Ok enfants calmes et respectueux (pas d'enfant en bas âge) 🌲 accès à l’extérieur obligatoire (au moins un espace extérieur sécurisé) en famille d'accueil à Saint-André-des-Eaux (22) Arrivé dans le jardin d'un particulier avec son copain Waffle, la personne a veillé sur eux et nous a contacté pour les prendre en charge. Craintifs au début, ils ont bien progressé et font des progrès chaque jour. Winter est timide quand il ne connaît pas la personne mais se révèle curieux et câlin une fois plus à l'aise. Il restera en retrait au début et se cachera s'il y a des mouvements trop brusques. Une fois en confiance, il fera son petit numéro en miaulant et se tortillant sur le dos pour attirer votre attention. Winter est également un petit gourmand Sa famille d'accueil apprend encore à le connaître au fur et à mesure qu'il prend ses marques mais c'est un loulou attachant et amusant. Il apprécie un environnement calme. La compagnie d'un congénère ou de son copain Waffle pourrait l'aider dans sa future famille mais ce n'est pas obligatoire. Il se trouve pour l'instant en chalet extérieur avec un enclos avec son copain Waffle (installation faite pour les chats), mais intègrera prochainement une autre famille d'accueil pour découvrir la vie en maison. Waffle montre quelques signes d'allergie (démangeaisons). Nous ne savons pas encore si c'est une allergie alimentaire ou environnemental (pollen), des essais sont en cours pour le soulager. Frais d'adoption : 180 € Processus d'adoption à suivre (questionnaire, rencontre avec le chat, visite du domicile) Formulaire de demande d'adoption :

About Winter ♂️​

What life with Winter ♂️​ looks like

Winter ♂️​ is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Assistance Animaux en Détresse in assistance animaux en detresse.

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 Winter ♂️​, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Winter ♂️​?
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 Winter ♂️​ on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Winter ♂️​ 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 Winter ♂️​ 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 Winter ♂️​ 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 Winter ♂️​ 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.
