How do I contact the shelter about Longoborghina?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ENPA Monza e Brianza handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Longoborghina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Longoborghina if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ENPA Monza e Brianza 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 Longoborghina 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 Longoborghina 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 ENPA Monza e Brianza early rather than rehoming privately; they know Longoborghina and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Longoborghina

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten

General Information: Adorable kitten with white and dark gray fur, slightly tabby-patterned, a pink nose, and two large, curious, and lively green eyes. Her name is inspired by the Italian cycling champion Elisa Longo Borghini. Vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for parasites. Not yet tested for FIV and FeLV. Temperament: Sociable, playful, and affectionate. She is curious and interested in everything around her and enthusiastically welcomes even people she doesn't know. Ideal Adoption: Given her young age, she needs a very attentive family that can devote time, care, and plenty of play opportunities—essential for her balanced and peaceful development. She’s also suitable for first-time cat owners, provided they are aware of a kitten’s needs. If there are children in the household, it’s important that they be respectful, adequately supervised, and able to understand her need for rest and quiet moments. Access to a garden—a definite plus—should only be granted after spaying or neutering and following an appropriate acclimatization period, during which she can establish proper territorial and social landmarks. Adoption is possible exclusively within the province of Monza and Brianza and in the immediately neighboring municipalities. Origin: Brought to a veterinary clinic in Monza by a young man who reported finding her in Cinisello Balsamo (MB).

IT·Show original

Generalità: Adorabile gattina dal pelo bianco e grigio scuro leggermente tigrato, con il nasino rosa e due grandi occhi verdi, curiosi e vivaci. Il nome richiama quello della campionessa di ciclismo italiana Elisa Longo Borghini. Vaccinata, microchippata e sottoposta ai trattamenti antiparassitari. Non ancora testata FIV-FeLV. Carattere: Socievole, giocherellona e affettuosa. È curiosa e interessata a tutto ciò che la circonda e accoglie con entusiasmo anche le persone che non conosce. Adozione ideale: Data la giovane età, ha bisogno di una famiglia molto presente, che possa dedicarle tempo, attenzioni e numerose occasioni di gioco, fondamentali per una crescita equilibrata e serena. È adatta anche a persone alla prima esperienza con un gatto, purché siano consapevoli delle esigenze di un cucciolo. In presenza di bambini, è importante che questi siano rispettosi, adeguatamente supervisionati e in grado di comprendere i suoi momenti di riposo e il bisogno di tranquillità. La possibilità di accedere a un giardino – sicuramente un valore aggiunto – dovrà avvenire solo dopo la sterilizzazione e dopo un adeguato periodo di ambientamento per acquisire adeguati punti di riferimento territoriali e relazionali. Adottabile esclusivamente nella provincia di Monza e Brianza e nei comuni strettamente limitrofi. Provenienza: Portata in una clinica veterinaria di Monza da un ragazzo che ha riferito di averla trovata a Cinisello Balsamo (MB).

About Longoborghina

What life with Longoborghina looks like

Longoborghina is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at ENPA Monza e Brianza in Monza.

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 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.
