Piuma

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 18 years

Piuma arrived with us in the autumn of 2018. She has never enjoyed the company of humans or the other numerous guests here. A solitary and independent creature, Piuma lived for a long time near the animal shelter but not within the enclosures. Since the beginning of 2023, we have tried to introduce her to a special enclosure with a few cats to see how she would behave, and she now lives a happy life, approaching humans for mealtime but always at a proper distance! For Piuma, we are therefore only seeking distant adoptions (click on DISTANCEADOPTION). ODVI Animal Welfare Association registered with the Regional Voluntary Association Register at Act No. 102/SA of 21/05/2008, registration number 260. Fiscal Code: 92049230516 Call the ASL central office () for the veterinary service, which will activate the trapping service on duty.

Piuma è arrivata da noi nell’autunno del 2018.Non ha mai amato la compagnia degli umani, né quella degli altri numerosi nostri ospiti.Creatura solitaria e indipendente, Piuma ha vissuto per molto tempo nei pressi del rifugio ma non all’interno dei recinti. Da inizio 2023 abbiamo provato ad inserirla in un recinto fatto apposta con pochi gatti per vedere come si comportasse e lei adesso vive felice la sua vita, avvicinandosi agli umani per il momento della pappa, ma sempre a debita distanza! Per Piuma cerchiamo quindi solo adozioni a distanza (clicca ADOZIONE A DISTANZA).

About Piuma

What life with Piuma looks like

Piuma is a small senior mixed breed cat waiting at Lo Scudo di Pan - Rifugio per Animali in Italy.

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 Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Piuma, answered.

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