Petry

Male

Our Petry is a cat who was born in a semi-controlled feral cat colony. One day, he disappeared along with his siblings. No one knew what had happened, and after some time, he reappeared, but with a malformed paw. His caregiver decided to capture and treat him, and today he is without one of his front legs. They cannot maintain indefinite foster care, so in due time he must arrive at our animal shelter. He is a scared cat, though when he starts to notice the petting, he loses that tension and begins to purr and make little chirping sounds.

Nuestro Petry es un gato que nació en una colonia semi controlada, un día desapareció junto a sus hermanos. No se sabía que había pasado, y al tiempo el reapareció, pero con una patita mal. Su cuidadora decidió capturarlo y tratarlo, y a día de hoy está sin una de sus patas delanteras. No pueden mantener una acogida indefinida, así que en un tiempo debe llegar a nuestro refugio.Es un gato asustadizo, aunque cuando empieza a notar las caricias, pierde esa tensión y empieza con el ronroneo y a hacer la croquetilla.

About Petry

What life with Petry looks like

Petry is a adult cat waiting at Defensa Felina 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 Petry, answered.

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