Guga

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

Guga was born in April 2015 and entered the shelter in January 2016. Found as a newborn, he was raised on bottles. His siblings were all adopted, but he never had the same luck. Today, he is a gentle, calm, and social cat who enjoys the company of other cats and appreciates the affection of people. It has been almost 10 years since he arrived at the shelter. Nearly a decade waiting for an opportunity that never came. Guga deserves finally to know what it is like to have a family, a bed of his own, and a home where he can live surrounded by love.

O Guga nasceu em abril de 2015 e entrou no abrigo em janeiro de 2016. Foi encontrado ainda recém-nascido e criado a biberão. Os seus irmãos foram todos adotados, mas ele nunca teve a mesma sorte. Hoje é um gato meigo, tranquilo e sociável, que gosta da companhia de outros gatos e aprecia o carinho das pessoas. Passaram-se quase 10 anos desde que chegou ao abrigo. Quase uma década à espera de uma oportunidade que nunca chegou. O Guga merece finalmente conhecer o que é ter uma família, uma cama só sua e um lar onde possa viver rodeado de amor.

About Guga

What life with Guga looks like

Guga is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Associacao Midas in Portugal.

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 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 Guga, answered.

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