Adopt Georgina

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Where others saw an ending for David, we knew his story was just beginning. Georgina was brought to us through our vet and it's a story we've heard too many times before. When her previous owners realized she was positive for feline leukemia (FeLV), they surrendered her. Cats with feline leukemia have to be kept inside to avoid spreading the virus to other cats and mitigate their own risk of infections. Unfortunately, many cat owners don't want this and, just like Georgina, they are given away. Georgina is one of our quieter cats, not one to demand attention, instead preferring to sit quietly nearby, watching everything that’s going on around her. If you walk through the cattery, there’s a good chance you won’t notice her straight away. And sadly, a diagnosis like hers often means cats are overlooked before people even get to know them. And that’s a shame, because Georgina is so much more than a test result. She’s beautiful, gentle, and slowly learning that people can be trusted. Sponsor her today to support her ongoing medical journey with FeLV and allow us to rescue more cats like her.

About Georgina

What life with Georgina looks like

Georgina is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tenerife Animal Sanctuary in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Georgina, answered.

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