Coco

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

Coco is a sweet and gentle kitten who found his way to the shelter on his own - he just walked in. Since then, he has been living with his shelter mom, along with other cats and dogs, which is going very well. Coco is not a show-off. He is more of a timid kitten who watches the cat from the tree, especially with new people or in an unfamiliar environment. He needs time to bloom. In a stable, quiet home, Coco will thrive. He needs an adopter who understands that trust must grow, and who gives him the space to seek contact at his own pace. Coco can live well with other animals and is also familiar with children, but we are looking for a quiet family for him, where he is not overwhelmed.

NL·Show original

Coco is een lief en zachtaardig katje dat zelf zijn weg naar de opvang heeft gevonden – letterlijk kwam hij gewoon binnenwandelen. Sindsdien woont hij bij zijn opvangmama, samen met andere katten en honden, wat heel goed verloopt. Coco is geen haantje-de-voorste. Hij is eerder een timide katje dat de kat uit de boom kijkt, zeker bij nieuwe mensen of in een onbekende omgeving. Hij heeft tijd nodig om open te bloeien. In een stabiele, rustige thuis zal Coco het best tot zijn recht komen. Hij heeft nood aan een adoptant die begrijpt dat vertrouwen moet groeien, en die hem de ruimte geeft om op zijn eigen tempo contact te zoeken. Coco kan goed samenleven met andere dieren en is ook vertrouwd met kinderen, maar we zoeken voor hem bij voorkeur een rustig gezin, waar hij niet overweldigd wordt.

About Coco

What life with Coco looks like

Coco is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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 Coco, answered.

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