How do I contact the shelter about Pluto?

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

Can I adopt Pluto if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Centro de Proteccion Animal de Madrid 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 Pluto 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 Pluto 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 Centro de Proteccion Animal de Madrid early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pluto 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.

Pluto

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 3 years

I am a beautiful male black cat, approximately 3 years old. My life has not been easy so far; I come from living in a feline colony on the street, where things got quite complicated for me because I fell ill. Luckily, that is behind me: I was rescued, I have been cared for wonderfully and now I am completely recovered, healthy and strong. As a young cat of 3 years, I am in the prime of my life. Leaving the street and illness behind has been my first big step, but now I am missing the most important one: finding a permanent family. I know that cats that are black and have a street background sometimes have a harder time getting noticed, but I deserve to be adopted and to prove all that I am worth. I am eager to discover what life is like inside a real home, where I will be given the stability and affection that I never had on the street. I am a survivor who has left the bad behind and am ready to start over. Will you give me the opportunity to show you what a great companion I can be? I am neutered and ready to travel to my new home.

¡Hola a todos! Soy un precioso gato negro macho de unos 3 años de edad. Mi vida no ha sido fácil hasta ahora; vengo de vivir en una colonia felina en la calle, donde las cosas se me complicaron bastante porque caí enfermito. Por suerte, eso ya quedó atrás: me rescataron, me han cuidado de maravilla y ahora ya estoy completamente recuperado, sano y fuerte. Al ser un gato joven de 3 años, estoy en la flor de la vida. Dejar atrás la calle y la enfermedad ha sido mi primer gran paso, pero ahora me falta el más importante: encontrar una familia definitiva. Sé que los gatos negros y con pasado callejero a veces lo tienen más difícil para que se fijen en ellos, pero yo me merezco ser adoptado y demostrar todo lo que valgo. Estoy deseando descubrir cómo es la vida dentro de un hogar de verdad, donde me den la estabilidad y el cariño que nunca tuve en la calle. Soy un superviviente que ha dejado atrás lo malo y está listísimo para empezar de cero. ¿Me das la oportunidad de demostrarte el gran compañero que puedo llegar a ser? Estoy castrado y listo para viajar a mi nuevo hogar.

About Pluto

What life with Pluto looks like

Pluto is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Centro de Proteccion Animal de Madrid in Madrid.

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.
