Alvin

Male · Young · 1 year

Date received: 24. 11. 2025 Record number: 136/2025 Gender: tomcat Born: August 2025, red, vaccinated, neutered, FIV and FeLV negative Alvin is a stray from Havlíčkův Brod, where the finder found him alone and sick at night. The next morning he was handed over to our care. He had to be hospitalized at the veterinary clinic, his condition was not good, but he fought and has now moved to home care. Alvinek is our kind and grateful little bear. Friendly, affectionate, easygoing. No big troublemaker, although he also likes to play. He doesn't annoy any of the cat friends, he gets along with everyone. He is looking for a home as a household pet, in an apartment or house, with netted ventilation windows/balcony so that nothing happens to him. A cat companion is necessary, he won't be happy alone. He is loved by the kitten Artuš here, so he prefers a home together.

Datum přijetí: 24. 11. 2025 Evidenční číslo: 136/2025 Pohlaví: kocour Narození: srpen 2025 odčervený, očkovaný, kastrovaný, FIV a FeLV negativní Alvin je nalezenec z Havlíčkova Brodu, kde ho nálezkyně našla v noci opuštěného a nemocného. Následující ráno byl předán do naší péče. Musel být hospitalizován na veterinární klinice, jeho stav nebyl dobrý, ale zabojoval a tak se již přesunul do domácí péče. Alvinek je takový náš hodný a vděčný medvídek. Zbožňuje mazlení, pusinky, hýčkání. Povahově přátelský, pohodový, mazlivý. A také celkem citlivý, nové situace a změny musí chvilku vstřebat. Není to žádný velký živel, i když si také rád pohraje. Nikoho z kočičích kamarádů nezlobí, se všemi si rozumí. Domov hledá pouze jako domácí, v bytě či domě, se zasíťovanými větracími okny/balkonem aby se mu nic nestalo. Nutný kočičí kamarád, sám šťastný nebude.

About Alvin

What life with Alvin looks like

Alvin is a young adult cat waiting at Mikes HB in Havlíčkův Brod.

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 Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alvin, answered.

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