Adopt Mesi

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

The story of MESI is very sad. This poor cat, about 5 years old, was abandoned on the street by what he believed was his family, at the doorstep of his home, watching him deteriorate day by day in the hope that he would die. He was waiting for them to open the door to what had been his home... Because of his condition, Mesi is sick and hurt, and while those people have gotten rid of what they saw as a problem without feeling any remorse, we are fighting alongside him to give him a dignified and normal life. Fortunately, the biopsies have ruled out a tumor, but it is an immunomediated issue, so his control will require time and care.

La historia de MESI es muy triste. Este pobre gato de unos 5 años, fue abandonado en la calle por la que él creía su familia, a las puertas de su hogar, viéndolo deteriorarse día tras día a la espera de que muriese. Él esperaba a que le abrieran las puertas del que había sido su hogar tiempo antes... Por su culpa, Mesi está enfermo y dolorido, y mientras esa gente se ha quitado 'un problema de encima' y no siente remordimientos, nosotros estamos luchando junto a él para que pueda volver a tener una vida digna y normal. Afortunadamente las biopsias han descartado el proceso tumoral, pero se trata de un problema inmunomediado, por lo que su control va a requerir de tiempo y cuidados.

About Mesi

What life with Mesi looks like

Mesi is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Protectora de Animales de Segovia in Segovia.

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 Mesi, answered.

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