Alfonso

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

11 July, on a warm afternoon, the foster mother came home and found her old friend Abuela waiting patiently for dinner in the entrance hall. When the foster mother returned with a can of food, she was surprised - Abuela was not alone. Next to her sat three cute orange kittens, who looked around curiously. Thus, Abuela's three children arrived at the shelter - Alfonso, Blanca and Catalina. According to the vet, they were about 11 weeks old, which means their birthday is around May 13th. Alfonso is a mischievous and energetic explorer. He never stays still for a moment - always discovering something new, climbing somewhere and playing with someone. When others are resting, Alfonso always finds a way to get some toy or tail chase going. His fur is special - orange and golden in tone, with a pattern reminiscent of a Bengal cat, like a little wild prince. But in his heart, Alfonso is gentle and friendly - he loves company and gets along very well with other foster home cats. If you are looking for a cheerful and lively friend who brings laughter and warmth into every day, Alfonso might be the cat for your heart. If you are interested, write: .

11. juuli soojal pärastlõunal astus hoiukodu perenaine eeskoridori ja leidis sealt oma vana sõbranna Abuela, kes ootas kannatlikult õhtusööki. Kui perenaine naasis konservikausiga, ootas teda aga üllatus – Abuela polnud üksi. Tema kõrval istusid kolm imearmsat oranži karvapalli, kes uudishimulikult ringi vaatasid. Nii jõudsid turvakodusse Abuela kolm last – Alfonso, Blanca ja Catalina. Arsti hinnangul olid nad umbes 11-nädalased, mis tähendab, et nende sünnipäev jääb 13. mai kanti. Alfonso on pesakonna särasilmne seikleja ja energiaallikas. Ta ei püsi hetkekski paigal – alati on kuskil midagi uut avastada, kuhugi ronida ja kellegagi mängida. Kui teised puhkavad, leiab Alfonso alati viisi, kuidas mõni mänguasi või sabajooks ikkagi käima tõmmata. Tema kasukas on eriline – oranži ja kuldse tooniga, mustrilt veidi Bengali kassi meenutav, justkui väike metsik prints. Kuid südames on Alfonso õrn ja sõbralik – ta armastab seltskonda ning saab suurepäraselt läbi teiste hoiukodu kassidega. Kui otsid koju rõõmsameelset ja elujõulist sõpra, kes toob igasse päeva naeru ja soojust, võib Alfonso olla just sinu südamekass. Kui tekkis huvi, kirjuta: . Tekkis huvi? Täida ankeet ja paku kodu!

About Alfonso

What life with Alfonso looks like

Alfonso is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Gabrieli Loomade Elu MTÜ in Estonia.

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 Estonia

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alfonso, answered.

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