How do I contact the shelter about Ciapek?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Stawiamy na Łapy handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ciapek on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ciapek if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Stawiamy na Łapy 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 Ciapek 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 Ciapek 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 Fundacja Stawiamy na Łapy early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ciapek 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.

Ciapek

Mixed Breed · Male

Ciapek was brought to the foundation with his mother and five siblings from Proszowice, and now lives in a foster home with his brother Lord Cow, both waiting for adoption. The story of his name is that the vet had to quickly give him a name, and since he had a spot, he became Ciapek. This name not only fits his coat pattern but also completely reflects his character, because he is the coolest Ciapek under the sun. Ciapek is a volcano of energy and does not quite understand what is allowed or not allowed, so even though he is suitable for families with children, it must be noted that the child must be able to handle him (for example, pushing him away when he jumps on a plate with food or steals a piece of meat). The new home must also be prepared for his arrival in terms of hiding cables, not leaving food on top, etc., because Ciapek eats everything, both edible and non-edible things. He is raised with his brother, a cat, a dog, and a child. When it comes to people, he immediately shows love, but with animals he has to get used to them because at first he likes to show who is in charge. He loves children. He can patiently endure a four-year-old all day, who constantly comes up with new games (for example, taking him in a chair singing "the train is coming from far away..."). Daily laser chasing is mandatory, he runs until his tongue is out and he's breathing like a puppy. In new places, he leads his brother, he is the first to exit the carrier, the first to explore the rooms. He is also a glutton, loves raw meat, treats, dried fish, and everything a cat can eat (and everything he shouldn't eat as well). The boys sleep together and if there is such an option, they sleep together face down on the caregiver. They are wonderful cuddlers, there is no problem with trimming their claws, they use the litter box perfectly. We are looking for a non-outgoing, loving, safe home for Ciapek, with a secure balcony (if there is one) and/or windows, which will provide him with the best care, either together with his brother Lord Cow or another energetic cat. WARNING!

PL·Show original

Ciapek trafił do fundacji mamą i piątką rodzeństwa z Proszowic, obecnie mieszka w domu tymczasowym z bratem Panem Krowa , obaj czekają na adopcję. Historia jego imienia jest taka, że u weterynarza trzeba było szybko nadać imię, a że miał ciapki to został Ciapkiem. Imię to jednak nie dość że pasuje do jego umaszczenia to jeszcze całkowicie oddaje jego charakter, bo jest najfajniejszą ciapą pod słońcem. Ciapek jest wulkanem energii i nie do końca rozumie co wolno lub co nie wolno dlatego, mimo że nadaje się do rodzin z dziećmi trzeba mieć na uwadze że dziecko musi umieć sobie z nim poradzić (np. Odsunąć go gdy wchodzi na talerz z obiadem lub kradnie parówkę). Nowy dom poniekąd musi być również przygotowany na jego przyjście w kontekście schowania kabli, nie zostawiania żywności na wierzchu itp. itd. bo ciapek je wszystko, zarówno rzeczy jadalne jak i nie jadalne. Wychowuje się z bratem, kotką, psem i dzieckiem. Jeśli chodzi o ludzi to pała miłością od razu, do zwierząt za to musi się przyzwyczaić bo na początku lubi pokazać kto rządzi. Kocha dzieci. Cały dzień potrafi wytrwale znosić pomysły 4latki, która co rusz wymyśla nowe zabawy (np. wozi go na krzesełku śpiewając “jedzie pociąg z daleka…”). Codzienna gonitwa za laserem jest obowiązkowa, biega do momentu wywieszenia języka i dyszenia jak piesek. W nowych miejscach on prowadzi brata, pierwszy wychodzi z transportera, pierwszy zwiedza pomieszczenia. Jest również głodomorem, uwielbia surowe mięsko, smaczki, suszone rybki i wszystko co kot może jeść (i co nie może też). Chłopaki śpią razem a jeśli jest taka opcja to śpią razem na twarzy opiekuna. Są cudownymi przytulasami, nie ma problemu z obcinaniem pazurków, kuwetują wzorowo. Szukamy dla Ciapka niewychodzącego, kochającego, bezpiecznego domu, z zabezpieczonym balkonem (jeśli jest) i/lub oknami, który otoczy go najlepszą opieką, wspólnego z bratem Panem Krową lub do innego energicznego kota. UWAGA!
