Donkita

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 7 years

Donkita has been living at a sanctuary for many years. In the beginning she was very wild, but thanks to the care of the people there she is no longer shy of humans. She needs time, though, and will without doubt have to learn to adjust to a new life again. She seeks closeness with people but still doesn't quite know how to carry herself. She's a project, but certainly well worth the effort!

NL·Show original

Donkita leeft al jaar en dag in een edelopvangcentrum, in het begin was ze heel wild maar dankzij de zorgen van de mensen daar is ze niet meer mensenschuw maar ze heeft tijd nodig en zal zonder enige twijfel ook zich opnieuw moeten leren aanpassen aan een nieuw leven. Ze zoekt toenadering naar de mensen maar ze weet nog steeds niet goed hoe ze haar moet dragen, ze is een projectje maar zeker en vast de moeite waard!

About Donkita

What life with Donkita looks like

Donkita is an 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. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Donkita, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Donkita?: 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 Donkita on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Donkita 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Donkita 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 Donkita 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 Donkita 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.
