PELÉ

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 12 years

PELÉ lived in a feral cat colony where he was fed by a good woman. One day, the lady communicated to us that the kitten was very emaciated and barely able to eat. We went to get him and took him to the veterinarian. The result was +FIV, however, the kitten recovered as soon as he came to the animal shelter and was cared for with love and diligence. Today, Pelé weighs 5 kg and is a wonderful cat. We are looking for a home where they can give him the hugs and affection that, after so much suffering, HE DESERVES.

PELÉ vivia en una colonia donde era alimemtado por una buena mujer. Un dia, la señora nos comunicó que el gatito estaba muy desmejorado y que a penas podia comer. Fuimos a buscarlo y le llevamos al veterinario. El resultado fue +FIV, no obstante, el gatito se recuperó nada más venir al refugio y fue cuidado con cariño y esmero. A dia de hoy, Pelé pesa 5 kg y es un gato maravilloso. Buscamos para él un hogar donde puedan darle los mimos y cariño que, despues de tanto sufrir, MERECE.

About PELÉ

What life with PELÉ looks like

PELÉ is a small senior mixed breed cat waiting at APADAC — Protectora de Animales in Spain.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇪🇸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 PELÉ, answered.

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