Joey

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Joey is a beautiful long-haired cat, a Persian mix, found in the Plaza Antonio Banderas area of Puerto Banús; he has no microchip and has not been neutered. He is a very timid cat. His first reaction when someone approaches is usually to hide or go somewhere else where he feels safe. When everything is quiet, he slowly emerges from his hiding place and settles into his little bed, observing everything from there. He gets on well with other cats and lives alongside them without any problems, which shows that he feels safe in the company of other cats. Although he is still very fearful, there are small steps forward that make us smile: if you have treats, Joey will come over and take them straight from your hand… even if he then quickly runs back to take refuge. Joey needs a family with experience of shy or unsocialised cats, who understand his process and are willing to give him time, patience and a calm environment where he can learn to trust. It is very important that his future home is secure and has no access to the outside, as he could easily get scared and run away whilst he is settling in. 💛 Behind his fear lies a sensitive cat who deserves a chance. ✨ Adopt Joey and help him discover that he too can feel safe and loved. 📩 Adoption enquiries: 📸 Follow us on Instagram:

About Joey

What life with Joey looks like

Joey is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

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 Joey, answered.

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