MEMBRILLO

European Shorthair · Male

Hello, I'm Membrillo. I was left on the street, but they couldn't take away my desire to be loved. I'm beautiful, yes. But the best thing isn't my face, it's that I'm super affectionate. The kind that jumps onto your lap without asking and starts purring like they've known you forever. I don't understand how someone could abandon me... but I do understand one thing: I'm ready for someone to choose me. If you're looking for love in cat form, I think I'm your perfect recipe. Shall we go home? Pl. de Cervantes, 12. 28801, Alcalá de Henares.

El dulce que no empalagaHola, soy Membrillo. Me dejaron en la calle, pero no consiguieron dejarme sin ganas de querer.Soy precioso, sí. Pero lo mejor no es mi cara, es que soy súper mimoso. De los que se suben al regazo sin pedir permiso y empiezan a ronronear como si te conocieran de toda la vida.No entiendo cómo alguien pudo abandonarme… pero sí entiendo algo: estoy listo para que alguien me elija. Si buscas cariño en formato gato, creo que soy tu receta perfecta. ¿Nos vamos a casa?

About MEMBRILLO

What life with MEMBRILLO looks like

MEMBRILLO is a medium-sized adult european shorthair cat waiting at CIMPA Alcalá de Henares in Spain.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting MEMBRILLO, answered.

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