Rachel

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

I was picked up off the street along with my 2 little siblings. We were all alone, and we were too small to survive on our own. My siblings have already found a home. They were Russian Blues, but I'm just a calico, an ordinary little cat that nobody seems to want, so I'm still waiting for a chance to find out what it means to have a home and a family. I'm still a bit shy, but that will pass very quickly in a cozy house. Do you have a little corner in your home for me? Contact:

Me recogieron de la calle junto a mis 2 hermanitos, estabamos solitos y eramos muy pequeños para sobrevivir por nuestra cuenta. Mis hermanos ya han encontrado un hogar, ellos eran azules rusos pero yo solo soy una vaquita, una gatita común a la que nadie quiere, por eso sigo esperando una oportunidad para conocer lo que significa tener una casa y una familia. Aún me queda algo de timidez, pero en una casita se me va a pasar muy pronto. ¿Tienes un rinconcito en tu casa para mi? Contacto:

About Rachel

What life with Rachel looks like

Rachel is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Asociación Protectora de Animales LARA 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 often include sterilization, vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport in the adoption fee, but this varies, so confirm with the shelter. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rachel, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rachel?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Asociación Protectora de Animales LARA handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rachel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rachel if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Asociación Protectora de Animales LARA whether they will for Rachel, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Rachel already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Rachel. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Asociación Protectora de Animales LARA, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Rachel isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Asociación Protectora de Animales LARA about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rachel 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.
