Yagi

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 2 months

This energetic little guy is the most active in the group and loves all types of games. However, play should be avoided directly with hands to prevent any scratches. Ideally, he would be happy to share his daily life with other playful cats, and if possible, be adopted as a duo with Akiko. Very affectionate and cuddly, he would fit perfectly with a family with children. He is also a big eater, so his diet will need to be monitored in the future. Finally, access to the outdoors is essential for him to fully expend his energy and flourish.

Ce petit joueur plein d’énergie est le plus actif de la bande et raffole de tous les types de jeux. Il faut néanmoins éviter de jouer directement avec les mains pour prévenir tout coup de griffe. Idéalement, il serait heureux de partager son quotidien avec d’autres chats joueurs et, si possible, d’être adopté en duo avec Akiko. Très câlin et affectueux, il conviendra parfaitement à une famille avec enfants. C’est aussi un grand gourmand, il faudra donc surveiller son alimentation à l’avenir. Enfin, un accès à l’extérieur est essentiel pour qu’il puisse pleinement se dépenser et s’épanouir.

About Yagi

What life with Yagi looks like

Yagi is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Association Thalya Protection in France.

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 Yagi, answered.

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