Kitty

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

I am still shy and a bit scared, but I no longer hide from people and have even become a little curious about some of the humans. Date of birth: 15.05.2022 Gender: female My life story: my brother Luca and I were taken from an abusive situation, our owner sprayed us with cold water, among other things. We were taken to the shelter in September 2022. My brother Luca was later adopted. My temperament: I still have difficulty trusting humans due to the abuse I suffered. However, since I arrived at the shelter, I have improved. I am still shy and a bit scared, but I no longer hide from people and have even become a little curious about some of the humans. I am not aggressive, just a bit shy, and with patience and the love of a family, I know I can become a more confident kitten. I would really like to have a family and a home all for myself.

Ainda sou tímida, e um pouco assustada, mas já não me escondo das pessoas e até me tornei um pouco curiosa em relação a alguns dos humanos. Data de nascimento: 15.05.2022 Género: fêmea A minha história de vida: eu e o meu irmão Luca fomos retirados de uma situação de abuso, a nossa dona atirava-nos água fria com um spray, entre outras coisas más. Fomos levados para o abrigo em setembro de 2022. O meu irmão Luca foi, entretanto, adotado. O meu temperamento: tenho ainda dificuldades em confiar nos humanos, devido à situação de abuso à qual fui submetida. mas, desde que cheguei ao abrigo, melhorei. ainda sou tímida, e um pouco assustada, mas já não me escondo das pessoas e até me tornei um pouco curiosa em relação a alguns dos humanos. Não sou agressiva, apenas um pouco medrosa e, com paciência e o amor de uma família, sei que me posso tornar numa gatinha mais confiante. Gostaria muito de ter uma família e uma casa só para mim.

About Kitty

What life with Kitty looks like

Kitty is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Cadela Carlota & Companhia 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 Kitty, answered.

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