Alfred

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Alfred to około 4-letni kocurek, który do schroniska trafił jako półdziki.. Jego historia nie należała do łatwych. Żył z dala od ludzi i nie miał okazji przekonać się, że człowiek może oznaczać bezpieczeństwo. Gdy został odłowiony, w ogromnym strachu bronił się przed dotykiem i podrapał osobę próbującą mu pomóc. W związku z tym trafił na dwutygodniową obserwację, podczas której przebywał w całkowitej izolacji. Niestety to doświadczenie jeszcze bardziej pogłębiło jego lęk i nieufność. Obecnie Alfred przebywa na kwarantannie kotów (budynek nr 4). Nadal unika kontaktu z człowiekiem, jest wycofany i najbezpieczniej czuje się z dala od opiekuna. Nie jest jednak kotem agresywnym – jego reakcje wynikają wyłącznie ze strachu i braku zaufania. dla Alfreda szukamy wyjątkowego domu – spokojnego, cierpliwego i przede wszystkim doświadczonego w opiece nad kotami lękowymi lub półdzikimi. Opiekuna, który nie będzie oczekiwał natychmiastowego kontaktu, lecz pozwoli mu oswajać świat i człowieka we własnym tempie. Być może Alfred nigdy nie stanie się typowym kotem uwielbiającym głaskanie, ale z odpowiednią dawką czasu, empatii i zrozumienia ma szansę odnaleźć spokój oraz poczucie bezpieczeństwa.

About Alfred

What life with Alfred looks like

Alfred is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Wrocław in Wrocław.

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 Alfred, answered.

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