Zayyan

Bengal · Male · Adult · 7 years

Zayyan was seized by the police; he was a stud cat used in puppy mills. Initially, he wouldn't come out of his transport box, but now he takes tentative steps outside, preferably for his daily portion of wet food. We will only place Zayyan with people who have experience with the Bengal breed, as he is not aggressive but is a typical large Bengal male and this type of cat is not for everyone.

NL·Show original

Zayyan werd in beslag genomen door de politie, hij was een dekkater die gebruikt werd in de broodfok. In het begin kwam hij zijn transportbox niet uit, nu zet hij voorzichtige stapjes naar buiten en dit liefst voor zijn dagelijkse portie natvoer. Zayyan plaatsen we enkel en alleen bij mensen die ervaring hebben met het Bengaals ras, hij is niet agressief maar is een typische grote Bengaals kater en dit type kat in huis is niet voor iedereen weggelegd.

About Zayyan

What life with Zayyan looks like

Zayyan is a adult bengal cat waiting at ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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 Zayyan, answered.

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