PRETINHA (menina)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Setúbal / Margem Sul / Lisbon — PRETINHA, cat for adoptionDelivered to adopter's home (spayed/chipped)Hello friends!PRETINHA has a very sad story. Her owner passed away. Her daughter abandoned her in a park, telling those there that "whoever wanted her could take her." This 3-year-old kitten had everything. She has up-to-date vaccinations, is spayed, was well cared for, and was loved by someone who didn't want to leave her without support. And that's how Pretinha (a gray cat with yellow eyes, sweet and gentle) ended up on the street in a shelter, where she was taken in. The time has come to find a family that will never abandon her.The ideal family for Pretinha:✅ Can be a single cat✅ We value protection on windows (gated screen or mosquito net)❌ Can't have access to the outside (street, yard, garden)To those who want to adopt this cutie, we ask that you fill out the application form by clicking the button at the bottom of the page.

E foi assim que a Pretinha (uma gata cinzenta de olhos amarelos, meiguinha e doce) foi parar à rua de um abrigo, onde a recolheram. Chegou a hora de encontrarmos uma família que nunca a abandone.A família ideal para a Pretinha:✅ Pode ser gata única✅ Valorizamos protecção nas janelas (rede gateira ou mosquiteira)❌ Não pode ter acesso ao exterior (rua, quintal, jardim)A quem quiser adotar esta fofinha, pedimos que preencha a ficha de candidatura carregando no botão no final da página.

About PRETINHA (menina)

What life with PRETINHA (menina) looks like

PRETINHA (menina) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SOS Gatinhos Setúbal in Portugal.

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 Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting PRETINHA (menina), answered.

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