Adopt DARÍO

Siamese · Male · Senior · 12 years

DARÍO needs an IMMEDIATE foster care or URGENT adoption. He suffered a stroke and is recovering, but things are complicated at the our shelter. Due to the stroke, he has some instability that prevents him from jumping and entering and exiting the modules, so he needs to be isolated, despite his ability to relate and seek affection like a normal cat. He drinks, eats, and uses the litter box independently, but he needs a quiet home to recover. We are looking for a foster home for him, covering his veterinary expenses, although he only takes one pill a day, which he is already accustomed to. You can call us or write to 622 912 579 to take him in or adopt him.

Darío necesita un HOGAR DE ACOGIDA o ADOPCIÓN URGENTE. Sufrió un ictus del que se está recuperando, pero en el refugio todo se complica. Debido al ictus tiene cierta inestabilidad que le impide dar saltos y entrar y salir de los módulos, por lo que tenemos que tenerle aislado, pese a que se relaciona y quiere cariño como un gato normal. Él bebe, come y usa el arenero de forma independiente, pero necesita una casa tranquila en la que recuperarse. Buscamos aunque sea una acogida para él, cubriendo nosotros sus gastos veterinarios, aunque actualmente sólo toma una pastilla al día a la que ya está acostumbrado. Puedes llamarnos o escribirnos al 622 912 579 para acogerle o adoptarle.

About DARÍO

What life with DARÍO looks like

DARÍO is a medium-sized senior siamese 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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting DARÍO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about DARÍO?
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 DARÍO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt DARÍO 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is DARÍO 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 DARÍO 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 DARÍO 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.
