Adopt Timoteo

Siamese · Male · Senior · 11 years

Timoteo had been living for several years in a feral cat colony in the capital. He interacted with users at an elderly residence and everything was normal until a heartless individual decided to shoot him, causing a femur fracture. For a few days, he dragged himself around unable to walk, until he was captured and taken for surgery. And that's how he arrived at our shelter. He's a bit timid, but good and calm. Contact:

Timoteo llevaba varios años viviendo en una colonia de la capital. Interactuaba con los usuarios de una residencia de ancianos y todo era normal hasta que un desalmado decidió darle un disparo que le causó fractura de fémur. Estuvo unos días arrastrándose sin poder caminar, hasta que pudo ser capturado y llevado a operar. Y así llegó a nosotros. Es un poco tímido, pero bueno y tranquilo. Contacto: 667849696

About Timoteo

What life with Timoteo looks like

Timoteo is a senior siamese cat waiting at Protectora Defensa Animal Palentina in Spain.

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 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 Timoteo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Timoteo?
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 Timoteo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Timoteo 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 Timoteo 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 Timoteo 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 Timoteo 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.
