CRIS

European Shorthair · Female · Senior · 14 years

Abandoned in some gardens where she lived alongside other cats. This little fatty is very affectionate and your perfect companion for household tasks (although she'll try to distract you to get you petting her all the time). She loves to sleep and bask in the sun, although she doesn't get along well with other cats and tends to be dominant.

Abandonada en unos jardines donde malvivía junto a otros gatos. Esta gordita es muy cariñosa y tu mejor compañera en las tareas de casa (aunque intentará distraerte para que la acaricies todo el tiempo). Le encanta dormir y tomar el sol, aunque no se lleva muy bien con otros gatos y suele ser dominante.

About CRIS

What life with CRIS looks like

CRIS is a medium-sized senior european shorthair cat waiting at Arca de Noé in Spain.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting CRIS, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about CRIS?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Arca de Noé handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw CRIS on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt CRIS if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Arca de Noé 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is CRIS 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 CRIS 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 Arca de Noé early rather than rehoming privately; they know CRIS 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.
