DEA

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Temperament: shy — HOUSE SAFE FOR CATS Balconies and windows with safety measures. Be careful of windows with sliding doors because kittens or small cats might get stuck. FOR ITS WELLBEING, a quiet corner of the house available for it to retreat to, especially in the first few days. Fresh water bowls and kibble always available. Scratching post, toys, and a bed or blanket for resting. NO COLLAR WITH A BELL, and if a collar is wanted, it should be a non-squeaky one.

About DEA

What life with DEA looks like

DEA is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Protezione Animali Legnano in Italy.

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 Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting DEA, answered.

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