Liuba

Mixed Breed · Female

Liuba is a medium-to-large-sized female dog—young, beautiful, cheerful, and full of energy. Despite her many wonderful qualities, no one has ever expressed interest in getting to know her. She’s smart and brimming with life. She doesn’t get along particularly well with other females, but cohabitation with males is possible and would need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. With cats, she’s shown herself to be calm and prefers observing them from a safe distance. Liuba deserves a life outside the kennel—a family that knows how to appreciate all the wonderful things she has to offer. Come meet her! For information and to schedule an appointment, please contact us via WhatsApp at 348 1013553, sending a message with a brief introduction.

IT·Show original

Liuba è una cagnolona di taglia medio-grande, giovane, bella, solare ed energica. Nonostante le sue tante qualità, nessuno ha mai chiesto di conoscerla. È brava e piena di vita. Non va particolarmente d'accordo con le altre femmine, ma eventuali convivenze con maschi sono possibili e da valutare. Con i gatti si è mostrata tranquilla, preferisce studiarli a distanza di sicurezza. Liuba si merita una vita fuori dal box e una famiglia che sappia apprezzare tutto quello che ha da offrire. Venite a conoscerla! Per informazioni e appuntamenti contattare via WhatsApp il numero 348 1013553, inviando un messaggio con una breve presentazione.

About Liuba

What life with Liuba looks like

Liuba is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Rifugio Castelnovo di Sotto in Italy.

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 Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Liuba, answered.

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