Tata Matilda

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 13 years

Generalities: Very sweet cat with white and gray fur. Vaccinated and microchipped. Suffers from a slight lameness due to an old fracture that has already healed. Character: Tata Matilda is a cat with a calm and very sweet nature. Extremely affectionate, she loves human contact and seeks it with constant tenderness. Do not be fooled by her slight limp: her vitality is contagious and, just like any other cat, she never gives up a jump or a play session. Ideal adoption: For this sweet little cat we are looking for a quiet family environment with people who have time for care and play. Good for a family with children provided they are respectful. Good for an environment with a protected garden where she can go out later, after a period spent exclusively indoors to get used to and establish reference points. For cats that go outside, we recommend using a anti-escape collar (with a safety closure that opens automatically if pulled) with an identification tag or similar. Available for adoption only in the province of Monza and Brianza and in the immediately adjacent municipalities. background: Verano Brianza (MB)

IT·Show original

Generalità: Dolcissima gatta dal pelo bianco e grigio. Vaccinata e microchippata. Soffre di una lieve zoppia posteriore dovuta ad una vecchia frattura ormai consolidata. Carattere: Tata Matilda è una gatta dall’animo sereno e dolcissimo. Estremamente affettuosa, adora il contatto umano e lo cerca con costante tenerezza. Non lasciatevi ingannare dalla sua lieve zoppia: la sua vitalità è contagiosa e, proprio come ogni altro gatto, non rinuncia mai a un salto o a una sessione di gioco. Adozione ideale: Per questa dolce gattina cerchiamo un contesto familiare tranquillo con persone che abbiano tempo per cure e gioco. Bene famiglia con bambini purché rispettosi. Bene un contesto con giardino protetto dove uscire più avanti, dopo un periodo da trascorrere tassativamente in casa per ambientarsi e acquisire i punti di riferimento. Per i gatti che escono, consigliamo in ogni caso l’uso di un collarino anti-strozzo (con chiusura di sicurezza che si apre automaticamente se viene strattonato) con medaglietta identificativa o simile. Adottabile solo nella provincia di Monza e Brianza e nei comuni strettamente limitrofi. Provenienza: Verano Brianza (MB)

About Tata Matilda

What life with Tata Matilda looks like

Tata Matilda is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at ENPA Monza e Brianza in Monza.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇮🇹Adopting from Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tata Matilda, answered.

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