How do I contact the shelter about El?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. El Refugio Escuela Marlene handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw El on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt El if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — El Refugio Escuela Marlene 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 El 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 El 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 El Refugio Escuela Marlene early rather than rehoming privately; they know El 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.

Adopt El

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

This adorable kitty is named BILLY and has had the luck of being rescued from life on the streets. We estimate he was born around June 2021. BILLY is a golden, very affectionate, and sociable fella 🙂 At the time of rescue, BILLY was found to be very dirty, scared, and with an intense hunger. Thankfully, he is now part of our animal shelter and lives in the cat house with other kitty friends. BILLY is pure love and sweetness, but as a young kitten, he is still in learning mode and curious about everything, so playful cat behaviors like running around the house and the occasional unexpected jump are part of his daily routine. He is a little guy, in addition to being handsome, friendly, fun, and very loving. He knows how to use the litter box and has adapted very well to living among people. He is up-to-date on all his vaccinations, has a microchip, a veterinary record, has been dewormed, and is neutered.

Este precioso gatuno se llama BILLY y ha tenido la suerte de ser rescatado de la vida en la calle. Calculamos que nació aproximadamente en junio de 2021. Es un rubio muy cariñoso y sociable 🙂 BILLY debía de llevar mucho tiempo solito en la calle, sin refugio y protección ya que, en el momento del rescate, se encontraba muy sucio, asustado y con un hambre brutal. Por fortuna, ahora forma parte de nuestro Refugio y vive en la gatera con otros compis gatunos. BILLY es puro amor y dulzura pero, como todo gatito joven, está en edad de aprendizaje y curiosidad por todo, así que, los juegos gatunos como corretear por la casa y algún que otro salto inesperado, son parte del día a día. Es un pequeñajo, además de guapetón, simpático, divertido y muy amoroso.Sabe hacer sus cositas en el arenero y se ha adaptado muy bien a vivir entre personas. Se entrega en adopción con todas las vacunas en regla, chip, cartilla veterinaria, desparasitaciones y esterilizado.

About El

What life with El looks like

El is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at El Refugio Escuela Marlene in Seville.

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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.
