Alex

Mixed Breed · Male

Alex è un Labrador di otto anni dal carattere estremamente socievole e gioioso, esattamente come ci si aspetta da questa razza. Ha qualche chilo di troppo e un cuore enorme: vederlo in un box, lui che una famiglia l'ha sempre avuta, è davvero difficile. Appena arrivato in rifugio, Alex ha conquistato tutti con la sua dolcezza. È compatibile con le femmine, ma non con altri maschi e nemmeno con i gatti. Cerca una nuova famiglia che gli restituisca l'affetto e la serenità che merita. Per informazioni e appuntamenti: 348 101 3553 (messaggio WhatsApp con breve presentazione)

About Alex

What life with Alex looks like

Alex is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Rifugio Castelnovo di Sotto in Italy.

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 Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alex, answered.

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