Adopt Lourenco

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

I have lived at Cadela Carlota for more than 7 years. I am FIV positive, but that does not prevent me from living a happy and healthy life. FIV+ cats can live well with other cats, as long as all the cats are spayed, vaccinated, and get along with each other.

About Lourenco

What life with Lourenco looks like

Lourenco is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Cadela Carlota in Cadela Carlota.

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 Lourenco, answered.

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