Adopt Garza

European Shorthair · Female · Senior · 12 years

Garza is a tabby cat from a Noe syndrome. She must be around 10 to 12 years old. She is a calm cat who lets you pick her up without any problem and she loves being brushed. Occasionally, she can be a bit shy and may try to avoid humans, but that simply means she sometimes needs her space and time to adapt. With the right guidelines and patience, there won't be any issues. We always try for joint adoptions, and the ideal match for her is Rino (The last two photos are of him) – they often take sunbaths together! The last photo is of them together, and honestly, we melt when we see them. Why adopt two instead of one? – Your life will be enriched with double the love. – They will entertain and take care of each other. – They will never be alone, playing together, grooming each other, etc. – Growing up with another cat is fundamental to reducing behavioral issues.

About Garza

What life with Garza looks like

Garza is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Abrazo Animal in Madrid.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇪🇸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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Garza, answered.

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