Is there an equivalent for "the" in Russian? In Google translate I wrote "the" in English and "la" and "el" (the Spanish equivalents) and wasn't offered a translation in any case.

Russian language has no articles..So, you cannot find an equivalent and Google either))

Sometimes you can use demonstrative pronouns этот, эта, это, тот, та, то when translating the, e.g. Yestarday I saw a cat. The cat was black. - Вчера я видел кошку. Эта кошка была черная.

Russian joke about english articles: 'a' is 'типа' 'the' is 'конкретно'. Вчера я видел типа кошку. Конкретно кошка была чёрная. It's joke bekause 'типа' 'конкретно' - slang words, words-parasites.
