Bernard

Mixed Breed · Male

What is the situation with the cat group in Všetaty? A fourteen-cat group needs help, as their lives are at stake. The kind lady feeds the cats in the yard of the house where she rents an apartment. Unfortunately, the house owner and all the neighbors around the cats are very upset. The lady has been allowed to feed the cats for the last fourteen days, so they need to be taken away urgently. If you know us and follow our work, you know that we always try to negotiate for timid cats to be neutered here and returned to a safe location, but it's simply not possible here. The reality is that those who can't be caught won't survive until Christmas. There are 14 cats of various ages on site, four of which are very small kittens, who are in the most danger - they are cold and also like to crawl into the engines of surrounding cars to warm up. This is Bernard, the father of the whole family. An old tomcat, a grumpy and pirate-like cat. He isn't afraid to scratch and bite; he is really one of the toughest cats we've ever had here. An attempt at deworming ended with two bitten fingers, and eventually we found out that Bernard is old and has only two teeth in total. Obviously, he can still hit both very well. Bernard had a terrible ulcer on his eye and was treated yesterday for the eye and neutering. Unfortunately, the eye was not usable anymore and the tomcat could no longer see, so he is now a one-eyed pirate from a toothless grump.

Jaká je situace kočičí skupinky ve Všetatech? Pomoc potřebuje přibližně čtrnáctičlenná kočičí skupinka, kterým jde o život. Kočky krmí hodná paní na dvoře domu, kde má pronajatý byt. Bohužel majiteli domu i všem sousedům okolo kočky velmi vadí. Paní má kočky povolené krmit posledních čtrnáct dní, proto je třeba je urgentně odvézt. Pokud nás znáte a sledujete, víte, že se vždy snažíme plachým kočkám vyjednat ideálně jen kastraci u nás a návrat do bezpečné lokality, ale tady to prostě nejde. Realita je taková, že kdo se nepodaří odchytit, ten do Vánoc nevydrží.Na místě je 14 koček různého věku, z toho 4 úplně malá koťátka, kterým hrozí smrt nejdříve – jsou nastydlá a navíc si oblíbila zalézat zahřívat se do motorů okolních aut. Tohle je Bernard, otec celého rodu. Starý kocour, drsňák a pirát. Nebojí se sekat a kousat, je to opravdu jeden z nejdrsnějších koček, co jsme u nás kdy měli. Pokus o odčervení skončil dvěmi prokousnutými prsty a to jsme nakonec zjistili, že Bernard je asi starý a dohromady má jenom dva zuby. Očividně se ale oběma umí krásně trefit. Bernard měl hnusný vřed na oku a tak včera byl na ošetření oka a kastraci. Oko bohužel bylo nepoužitelné a kocour na něj už neviděl, tak je z bezzubého drsňáka jednooký pirát.

About Bernard

What life with Bernard looks like

Bernard is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Útulek Kocour Felix (PSOZ) in Czech Republic.

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 Bernard, answered.

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