Adopt Tintin

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 10 months

Tintín is a lovely black cat, the brother of Talat and Tabo (who has already been adopted), who were rescued from the Diana Park housing estate (Marbella) when they were very young. He is a very shy kitten who still gets scared when people approach and prefers to watch from a distance. However, little by little he is showing more interest and curiosity, signs that, with patience, we hope he will gradually gain confidence. He is sociable and calm with other cats, gets on well with them and relies on them, which helps him feel more secure in his surroundings. Tintín needs a family with experience of cats, who understand his nature and give him the time and peace of mind he needs to progress without pressure. 💛 A little one who is still learning to trust, but who, with love, we hope can change completely. ✨ Adopt Tintín and give him the chance to discover what a home is. 📩 Adoption enquiries: 📸 Follow us on Instagram:

About Tintin

What life with Tintin looks like

Tintin is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tintin, answered.

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