Viernes

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten

Description Viernes appeared out of nowhere at the our area, where she lived among the workers' cars, feeding off the scraps and tins they left for her. However, she was always hidden and seemed to be losing weight, so we were asked to help her. Upon arriving at the animal shelter, she was quite frightened and used to cower in her little bed. However, over time, Viernes has gained some confidence in herself and now wanders around the premises with a fair amount of ease. Nevertheless, she still doesn't fully trust people and likes to keep her distance, likely having had a tough time with humans at some point in her life. As often happens in such cases, it's a matter of time, patience, gentle words, and bowls of pâté and slices of turkey to make Viernes feel more secure and at ease, always respecting her distances, independence, and timing.

Descripción Viernes apareció sin más en la cementera, allí vivía entre los coches de los trabajadores y se alimentaba con el pienso y latitas que le ponían, sin embargo siempre estaba escondida y parecía que estaba perdiendo peso por lo que nos solicitaron ayuda para ella. Al principio de llegar al albergue se encontraba bastante asustada y solía estar agazapada en su camita, sin embargo, con el paso del tiempo Viernes ha ido ganando seguridad en sí misma y se pasea por el recinto con bastante tranquilidad. No obstante, continúa sin confiar plenamente en las personas y le gusta guardar las distancias, seguramente en algún momento de su vida lo ha debido de pasar mal con los humanos. Como sucede en muchos casos es cuestión de tiempo, paciencia, palabras suaves y platitos de paté y lonchas de pavo para que Viernes poco a poco se sienta más segura y tranquila, respetando siempre sus distancias, su independencia y sus tiempos.

About Viernes

What life with Viernes looks like

Viernes is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Keywords in Spain.

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 Viernes, answered.

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