Fourteen cats arrive safely in France ????????
After a long wait, fourteen of our cats finally made their journey to our homing partner SPA de Pontarlier in France last Thursday, 30th October.
Their departure had originally been planned for mid-September, but the trip had to be postponed following a Giardia outbreak in the cattery — a frustrating setback for everyone involved. Thankfully, after weeks of treatment, deep cleaning, and all-clear test results, the cats were ready to travel once again.
We’re delighted to confirm they’ve arrived safely and are settling in well at SPA de Pontarlier, where they’re already available for adoption into loving new homes.
Transports like this take an incredible amount of teamwork, coordination, and “Papaleo” between our volunteers, homing partners, and transporters. Every successful journey means more space here at PAWS-PATAS to help the next cats in need — and more happy endings for those who’ve waited patiently for their chance.
A huge thank you to everyone who played a part in making this transport possible — from the volunteers who prepared the cats, to the drivers, vets, and our dedicated colleagues in France. Special thanks to Agnes #agnes.borgnanagrin and Antoinette and Bo from #AnimalHotel.es for all your help.
Safe and settled, little ones — the next chapter of your adventure begins! ????????
