Doce

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 6 months

A Doce é uma gatinha com 10 semanas, recentemente recolhida do motor de um carro. Com o seu corpinho frágil, sinais de infeção dos olhinhos e um pouco a tremer, deixou-se pegar e acolher num colinho, para encontrar agora um destino mais feliz e seguro. A Doce já foi ao veterinário, completou tratamento para a conjuntivite e será entregue com microchip, desparasitada e com a primeira vacina. É uma gatinha muito mas muito carinhosa, daí o nome.

About Doce

What life with Doce looks like

Doce is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Causas de Caudas in Portugal.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇵🇹Adopting from Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting Doce, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Doce?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Causas de Caudas handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Doce on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Doce if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Causas de Caudas 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 Doce 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 Doce 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 Causas de Caudas early rather than rehoming privately; they know Doce 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 (PT). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
