ZARPAS

European Shorthair · Male

Hello! I'm Zarpas, as you can see I'm a handsome fellow! Don't you think I look like I'm wearing a little suit? 🙂 I've been at CIMPA since I was 3 months old. I was abandoned in a box with my other siblings and have been at the shelter ever since. I get along well with my other feline friends but I need a home where I can grow up happy. I love to play but at first I'm a bit shy, nothing that can't be solved with some treats and some loving caresses. Will you take me home with you and grow up together?

Hola! Soy Zarpas, como veis soy un guapetón! A que parece que llevo un trajecito? 🙂 Llevo en el CIMPA desde que tenía 3 mesecitos. Me abandonaron en una caja con mis otros hermanos y desde entonces estoy en la protectora. Me llevo bien con mis otros compañeros gatunos pero necesito una casa donde crecer feliz. Me encanta jugar pero al principio soy un poco tímido, nada que no se pueda solucionar con unas chuches y unas caricias de amor. ¿Me llevas a casa contigo y crecemos juntos?

About ZARPAS

What life with ZARPAS looks like

ZARPAS is a medium-sized adult european shorthair cat waiting at CIMPA Alcalá de Henares in Spain.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇪🇸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 ZARPAS, answered.

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