Alfonso Fiv+

Mixed Breed · Male

Temperament: Alfonso is a characterful, curious cuddler. He really likes and needs people - both for petting and for playing. He loves attention and draws attention to himself in order to be taken care of. He also won't turn down good food. What is FIV+? It is a syndrome of acquired immunodeficiency, commonly called feline AIDS, because it resembles the human form of this disease. Infection occurs mainly through direct contact of the carrier's saliva with the blood of another cat, for example, through deep bite wounds during fights. Cats with FIV can live with other cats infected with FIV, but also with healthy cats, provided the animals are calm and there are no aggressive fights between them. Only cats can get infected. Therefore, you, your dog, or you will not get infected, nor will you transmit FIV to your neighbor's cat. This is an incurable disease, but with proper care, its progression can be stopped, and a cat with FIV can live a long and happy life. The basis is a home-bound environment, regular monitoring of the cat's health, and strengthening its immunity (for example, through appropriate supplements).

Usposobienie: Alfonso jest charakternym, ciekawskim przytulasem. Bardzo lubi i potrzebuje cżłowieka – zarówno do miziania, jak i do zabawy. Uwielbia atencję i zwraca na siebie uwagę, by się nim zająć. Nie pogardzi też dobrym jedzonkiem. Czym jest FIV+? Jest to zespół nabytego niedoboru immunologicznego, potocznie nazywany kocim AIDS, ponieważ przypomina ludzką odmianę tej choroby. Do zakażenia dochodzi głównie przez bezpośredni kontakt śliny nosiciela z krwią drugiego kota, czyli np. przez głębokie rany kąsane podczas bójek. Koty z FIV mogą mieszkać z innymi kotami zakażonymi FIV, ale też ze zdrowymi kotami, pod warunkiem, że zwierzaki są spokojne i nie dochodzi między nimi do agresywnych walk. Zarazić mogą się TYLKO KOTY. Nie zarazisz się więc ani Ty, ani Twój pies, ani nie przeniesiesz FIV na sobie na kota sąsiadów. To choroba nieuleczalna, ale dzięki odpowiedniej opiece można powstrzymać jej rozwój, a kot z FIV może żyć długo i szczęśliwie. Podstawą jest dom niewychodzący, regularne kontrolowanie stanu zdrowia kota i wzmacnianie jego odporności (np. za pomocą odpowiednich suplementów).

About Alfonso Fiv+

What life with Alfonso Fiv+ looks like

Alfonso Fiv+ is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Poland

Polish shelters maintain established transport routes to Germany, Netherlands, Austria, and Sweden. Animals leave sterilized and chipped. Adoption fees are typically lower than in Western Europe (often €50–€150) but adopters cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alfonso Fiv+, answered.

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