Adopt Retinto

Mixed Breed · Male

Retinto was hit by a car on the road and left to fend for himself. He had an open wound on his head and what seemed to be a broken leg. Once he recovered, we were able to go and pick him up and bring him to our shelter. He has been in foster care for some time, where he shares space with other dogs and cats. With people, he remains shy and doesn't approach strangers easily. He wants to be with other dogs, whom he constantly imitates and needs to feel good and secure.

Retinto fue atropellado en la carretera y dejado a su suerte. Tenía una herida abierta en la cabeza y una herida en una pata que parecía rota. Cuando se recuperó, pudimos ir a buscarlo y llevarlo al refugio. Lleva tiempo en una casa de acogida, donde comparte espacio con otros perros y gatos. Con las personas sigue siendo tímido, no se acerca fácilmente a desconocidos. El quiere estar con otros perros, a los que imita sin cesar, los necesita para sentirse bien y seguro.

About Retinto

What life with Retinto looks like

Retinto is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Arca Sevilla in Seville.

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 Retinto, answered.

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