Roo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Sad beginning, beautiful story, hopefully happy ending Roo is the sister of Doger. As kittens, they were found on the side of the road waiting next to their mom, who got hit by a car. A volunteer brought them to us. They were very scared and we had to bottle feed them. But after some time, they got braver and now they absolutely love it here! Roo and Dodger look almost identical – only some people can tell the difference! Roo has now found her forever home, but her brother Dodger is still looking. Contact us for more information if you are interested in adopting Dodger!

About Roo

What life with Roo looks like

Roo is a small kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tenerife Animal Sanctuary in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roo, answered.

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