Čiko

Male · Kitten

Datum intake: 11. 9. 2026 ID: 106/2026 Sex: male Birth: July 2026 dewormed, vaccinated, FIV and FeLV negative Čiko was found at our shelter in Havlíčkův Brod, literally discarded in a box. Čiko is a "houpáček," meaning he has poor coordination and balance. However, if anyone is an example that even this is no obstacle to a happy life, it is him. He is so happy and cheerful every day! Unbelievable how much joy and love he gives around. He is our little imp, who would love to cuddle and cuddle all day, never enough. He suffers greatly at our shelter, as we don't have enough time for him with so many cats, so finding a home is his only salvation. A home where he will be loved forever, so he never experiences another betrayal. He likes some good cat friends. No small children. Definitely only as a house cat, apartment or single-family home, with cat-proof windows/balcony, to prevent accidents. (Houpáček = a neurological disorder that affects coordination and balance, otherwise he is a healthy boy, just a bit different in movement.)

Datum přijetí: 11. 9. 2026 Evidenční číslo: 106/2026 Pohlaví: kocour Narození: červenec 2026 odčervený, očkovaný, FIV a FeLV negativní Čiko se našel u nás v Havlíčkově Brodě u útulku, doslova tady byl odhozen v krabici. Čiko je tzv. „houpáček“, to znamená že má horší koordinaci pohybů a rovnováhy. Nicméně jestli je někdo ukázkou toho, že ani to není překážkou pro spokojený život, je to právě on. Je tak šťastný a veselý každý den! Neuvěřitelné, kolik radosti a lásky rozdává okolo. Je to náš malý skříteček, který by se nejraději na světě jen pořád mazlil a mazlil, nikdy nemá dost. U nás velice strádá, tím že na něj nemáme v tom počtu koček tolik času, jedinou spásou je pro něj tedy najít domov. Takový, kde ho budou milovat už napořád, aby už nikdy nezažil další zradu. S nějakým hodným kočičím kamarádem, ty má rád. Bez malých dětí. Určitě jen jako čistě domácí, byt nebo RD, se zasíťovanými okny/balkonem kočičími sítěmi, aby nedošlo k neštěstí. ( Houpáček = jedná se o tzv. hypoplazii mozku, což je neurologická porucha která má dopad na horší koordinaci pohybů a rovnováhu, jinak je to zdravý kluk, jen na pohled v pohybování zkrátka trochu jiný).

About Čiko

What life with Čiko looks like

Čiko is a small puppy/kitten cat waiting at Mikes HB in Havlíčkův Brod.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇨🇿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 Čiko, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Čiko?
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 Čiko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Čiko 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 Čiko 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 Čiko 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 Čiko 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.
