Sushi

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 7 years

We know very little about Sushi's history before coming to us. It fell into a trap cage at a shopping center and was taken to the animal products store there. It was so scared that they thought it was feral, but that was far from the truth. We then transported it to foster care, and we also discovered that its claws were trimmed. We don't know if it was abandoned or if someone lost it...but no one has claimed it, and we are going to find it a new home. It is very affectionate and has adapted perfectly to apartment life.

Poco sabemos de la historia de Sushi antes de llegar a nosotros. Cayó en una jaula trampa de un centro comercial y lo llevaron a la tienda de productos animales del centro. Allí estaba tan asustado que llegaron a pensar que era feral, pero nada más lejos de la realidad. Así lo trasladamos a casa de acogida y también descubrimos que tenía las uñas cortadas. No sabemos si fue un abandono, si alguien lo perdió...pero nadie lo ha reclamado y nosotros vamos a buscarle un nuevo hogar. Es muy cariñoso y se ha adaptado a piso perfectamente.

About Sushi

What life with Sushi looks like

Sushi is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Protectora Defensa Animal Palentina 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 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 Sushi, answered.

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