How do I contact the shelter about PERLA?

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

Can I adopt PERLA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APAN — Protectora d 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 PERLA 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 PERLA 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 APAN — Protectora d early rather than rehoming privately; they know PERLA 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 (CA). 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.

PERLA

Mixed Breed · Female

PERLA was adopted when she was still a playful puppy, and after some years they returned her. The excuse? "They had to move and where they were going there were other cats and Perla didn't get along with others like her." 🐱 Currently, since she was returned, she lives with Estrellata, Inna and other cats in the same cat enclosure without any problems. Although she can be a bit special in character and doesn't like people touching her whiskers, she gets along perfectly with other cats that respect her. 👤 With people she is a bit special. She isn't the typical fluffy kitten that everyone "looks for" but she is very affectionate and sociable, rubs against you all the time and wants you to stroke her. However, if she doesn't like where you touch her or decides she's had enough, she will let you know! That's why we think she will be better off in an environment without small children, or if there are children, they must clearly understand that she has limits and they must be respected. ⚾ She also loves playing with balls and feather toys, she has a lot of fun and you will surely enjoy her company! 🐶 Dogs, through the fences, don't really appeal to her. 🏘️ As she has lived for a long time in a house, she perfectly knows what it is and how to live there. We think a home where she has some covered and safe yard where she can go out to sunbathe and enjoy the space will make her happier. This cat's FIV status applies — see shelter for details.

PERLA QUINS PASSOS HAS DE SEGUIR PER ADOPTAR-ME? Dia 1: Emplena el qüestionari Dia 2: Entrevista per whatsapp Dia 3: Visita al refugi (amb cita prèvia) Dia 4: Formalitza l'adopció Els animals s'entreguen vacunats, desparasitats, xipats i esterilitzats. En cas d'entregar-se l'animal sense esterilitzar per l'edat, l'adoptant es compromet a portar-lo per fer l'esterilització a l'edat adequada. Per a més informació clica al botó ADOPTA'M Va ser adoptada quan encara era un cadellet mono i juganer, i al cap dels anys la van retornar. L'excusa? “s’havien de mudar i a on anaven hi havia altres gats i la Perla no es portava bé amb d’altres com ella”. 🐱 Actualment i desde que la van tornar, conviu amb l’Estrellata, la Inna i d’altres gats a la mateixa gatera sense cap mena de problema. Tot i que pot ser una mica especial de caràcter i no li agrada gaire que li toquin els “bigotis”, amb d’altres gats que la respectin hi conviu perfectament. 👤 Amb les persones és una mica especial. No és la gateta faldera que tothom “busca” però es mostra molt carinyosa i sociable, es refrega tota l’estona amb tu i vol que l’acaronis. Compte però, si no li agrada a on la toques o decideix que ja en te prou, t’ho farà saber! Per això creiem que estarà millor a un entorn sense nens petits, o que si els hi ha tinguin molt clar que té uns límits i s’han de respectar. ⚾ També li encanta jugar amb pilotes i pals amb plomes, s’ho passa pipa i segur que us entretindreu junts! 🐶 Els gossos, a través de les tanques, no li fan gaire gràcia. 🏘️ Com ha viscut força temps a una casa, sap perfectament el que és i viure-hi. Pensem que una llar on tingui algun pati cobert i segur, on pugui sortir a prendre el sol i gaudir de l’espai serà més feliç. 💊 És negativa en FeLV i FIV QUINS PASSOS HAS DE SEGUIR PER ADOPTAR-ME?
