Adopt YOUNA

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

YOUNA is a shy cat who will need time to build trust. She enjoys being petted but is not very comfortable with physical contact. YOUNA gets along with other cats and would do best in a quiet home without young children. She arrived with no teeth, likely due to a previous operation, but this doesn't affect her appetite.

Read original (fr)

Youna est une chatte peureuse qui aura besoin de temps pour accorder sa confiance. Elle se laisse caresser mais n'est pas très à l'aise avec le contact. Youna s'entend avec les autres chats et l'idéal pour elle serait un foyer calme sans jeunes enfants. Elle est arrivée chez nous sans dents, probablement suite à une ancienne opération mais cela ne l'empêche pas de manger.

About YOUNA

What life with YOUNA looks like

YOUNA is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at SPA Château-d'Olonne.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇫🇷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 YOUNA, answered.

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