Tufa

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 15 years

I'm Tufa, an adorable ginger girl born in 2011. I had a memorable past with my master. Me and my mates used to lived in a large beautiful garden and were so happy to run around; until one fine day my master decided that the place was too big for us and opted for a smaller place to live. Our house was then taken and occupied by other humans. I was the only one to have been caught and taken to what is now our sanctuary. I have no idea to what happened to my other mates, but surely my master could not afford to give them food any longer. I have new friends now, a new garden to run around and voluteers that love me so much. I spend the majority of my time watching the humans cleaning up the mess me and my others make. I keep waiting until the magic moment arrives when they place down the shiny bowls and put the soft meat for us. Its the highlight of our day where we literally throw ourselves on the food.

About Tufa

What life with Tufa looks like

Tufa is a large senior mixed breed cat waiting at Tomasina Cat Sanctuary in Malta.

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 Malta

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tufa, answered.

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