How do I contact the shelter about Kittens?

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 Kittens on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kittens 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 Kittens 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 Kittens 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 Kittens 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.

Kittens

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Kitten season is here and our cattery is full of tiny paws! Our hearts (and cat beds) are full! It all started with a litter of 5 found in a bush by one of our volunteers, then another little boy was found on his own on a roundabout, then another litter of 6 arrived, then another litter of 4! And suddenly our cattery is full and we now have 16 Kittens looking for their forever homes. These little ones are friendly, playful, used to children and other cats, and ready to become part of a family. Sadly, their story isn’t unusual for Tenerife. In fact, that’s the problem. Every rescue we speak to is overwhelmed with Kittens, and finding homes has become harder than ever. And in the meantime, while they wait for their new homes, each kitten needs food, vaccinations, parasite treatments, veterinary care and eventually sterilisation. It all adds up quickly when we have 16 little ones! If you're not able to offer a home to one of the Kittens but would still like to help, you can sponsor them or make a donation to help us give them a good head start in life.

About Kittens

What life with Kittens looks like

Kittens is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tenerife Animal Sanctuary in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

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 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.
