Adopt Emilio

Siamese · Male · Kitten · 4 months

I was found with my tail necrotic. They had to use a trap because I was in panic. My tail was amputated and it took me some time to recover. I'm still afraid of people, but I think I would like to be in a home with another friend of mine. I would learn again that life at home is good. I already had a home and knew the comfort it was, but then I was abandoned. I am Emilio, a Siamese cat who didn't have any luck!

Fui encontrado com a minha cauda necrosada. Tiveram de usar uma armadilha pois eu estava em pânico. A minha cauda foi amputada e demorei algum tempo a recuperar. Continuo com medo de pessoas, mas eu acho que até gostava de estar numa casinha, com outro amigo meu. Aprenderia de novo que a vida em casa é boa. Já tive uma casa e sei o conforto que é, mas depois fui abandonado.. Sou o Emilio, um gatinho siamês que não teve sorte! Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Emilio

What life with Emilio looks like

Emilio is a medium-sized puppy/kitten siamese cat waiting at Bianca APS 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 Emilio, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Emilio?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Bianca APS handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Emilio on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Emilio if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Bianca APS 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 Emilio 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 Emilio 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 Bianca APS early rather than rehoming privately; they know Emilio 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
