Ivo

Male · Kitten · 4 months

I am Ivo, a small kitten born in the wild with 3 siblings. Our mother gave birth to us under some branches but quickly placed us at the door of a family that loves cats and spoiled us until we were handed over to Bianca. Our mother is incredibly sweet and wonderful. With her care and dedication, we were very lucky! If you want to give us a home full of love, you will be our next family 😉 Also available for sponsorship!

D.N.: 20 de abril de 2026 Características: vacinado e desparasitado Sou o Ivo, um pequeno gatinho nascido no mato, com mais 3 irmãos. A mamã deu-nos à luz debaixo de uns ramos mas rapidamente nos colocou à porta de uma família que adora gatos e nos mimou até nos entregar na Bianca. A nossa mamã é incrivelmente meiga e maravilhosa. Com o seu cuidado e dedicação nós tivemos muita sorte! Quem quiser dar-nos um lar cheio de amor, será a nossa próxima família 😉 Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Ivo

What life with Ivo looks like

Ivo is a small puppy/kitten 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 Ivo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ivo?
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 Ivo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ivo 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 Ivo 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 Ivo 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 Ivo 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.
