Retsu

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

Retsu is an impressive cat born in April 2024 who has come to our shelter because of a health problem in his family, which meant they were no longer able to care for him. Accustomed to the comfort and calm of a home, Retsu is a homebody, affectionate, and very close to people. He loves human company and enjoys those small moments of attention and affection that he values so much. However, the move to the shelter has been difficult for him. Like many cats who have lived with a family, he is finding it hard to adjust to such a different and stressful environment. That is why we hope his stay with us will be as short as possible and that he will soon find a new home where he can feel safe, loved, and happy again. Retsu deserves a second chance and a family that will open the doors of their home and their heart to him forever. If you are interested in meeting him, you can read the information about the and fill out the form:

Retsu es un impresionante gato nacido en abril de 2024 que ha llegado a nuestro refugio debido a un problema de salud de su familia, que ya no podía seguir haciéndose cargo de él. Acostumbrado a la comodidad y tranquilidad de un hogar, Retsu es un gato casero, cariñoso y muy cercano a las personas. Le encanta la compañía humana y disfrutar de esos pequeños momentos de atención y cariño que tanto valora. Sin embargo, el cambio al refugio está siendo difícil para él. Como muchos gatos que han vivido en familia, le está costando adaptarse a un entorno tan diferente y estresante. Por eso, deseamos que su estancia con nosotros sea lo más breve posible y que pronto encuentre un nuevo hogar donde volver a sentirse seguro, querido y feliz. Retsu merece una segunda oportunidad y una familia que le abra las puertas de su casa y de su corazón para siempre.

Frequently asked

Adopting Retsu, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Retsu?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Barcelona) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Retsu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Retsu if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Barcelona) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Retsu 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 Retsu 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 Barcelona) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Retsu and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
