ÁTICA

European Shorthair · Female

Hello, I'm Ática. I arrived at the shelter when I was just 20 days old... My immune system was very weak and I suffered a fungal infection. It was a difficult time, but thanks to the care and affection of humans, I recovered and am now much stronger. I'm a bit of a timid cat. It's not easy for me to trust right away, but when I feel safe, I'm very affectionate. I'm looking for a quiet home where I can feel protected. Would you like to be my new family? If you have patience and a heart full of love, I think we could be very happy together. Pl. de Cervantes, 12. 28801, Alcalá de Henares Aviso Legal Accessibility Privacy Policy Cookies

Hola, soy Ática. Llegué a la protectora cuando apenas tenía 20 días de vida… Mi sistema inmunológico estaba muy débil y sufrí una infección por hongos. Fue un tiempo complicado pero, gracias a los cuidados y el cariño de los humanos, me recuperé y ahora me encuentro mucho más fuerte. Soy una gata algo miedosa. No es fácil para mí confiar de inmediato pero, cuando me siento segura, soy muy cariñosa. Estoy buscando un hogar tranquilo, donde pueda sentirme protegida. ¿Te gustaría ser mi nueva familia? Si tienes paciencia y un corazón lleno de amor, creo que podríamos ser muy felices juntos.

About ÁTICA

What life with ÁTICA looks like

ÁTICA is a medium-sized adult european shorthair cat waiting at CIMPA Alcalá de Henares in Spain.

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 Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting ÁTICA, answered.

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