How do I contact the shelter about Czesiu?

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

Can I adopt Czesiu if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Dla Zwierząt Animalia Poznań 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 Czesiu 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 Czesiu 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 Dla Zwierząt Animalia Poznań early rather than rehoming privately; they know Czesiu and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Czesiu

Male · Young · 1 year

We are not hiding that adopting Czesio♥️ (as well as his brother Rysio♥️) will be a certain challenge... People who take him into their family will therefore have the task of helping this shy and fearful little cat open up to them and trust them. Our Czesiu is a gentle, delicate kitten, unfortunately withdrawn - he does not seek contact with people, and even avoids them a bit. We are working on this with the help of a behaviorist, but we will have to wait for the results. In home conditions it would certainly be easier to achieve than in the cattery where Czesiu currently lives. He definitely needs to go to a quiet home, to people who will patiently and slowly convince him of themselves and allow him to get used to them at his own pace. Besides, Czesiu is a playful kitten😍. Like a young kitten, he loves to play, especially running after fishing rods and hunting them. He then forgets about his shyness and becomes a real feline predator😍. Czesio's shyness also disappears without a trace when there are tasty treats around - he is always the first by the person who distributes them, and he can take them very skillfully and yet gently from the hand. You can definitely reach Czesio's heart through his stomach♥️.

Nie ukrywamy, że adopcja Czesia♥️ (a także jego brata Rysia♥️) będzie pewnym wyzwaniem, bo to nie jest „łatwy” kot, który od razu wskakuje człowiekowi na kolana. Czesiu jest łagodny i bardzo delikatny, w relacjach z ludźmi ostrożny i nieśmiały. Na zaufanie Czesia człowiek musi sobie po prostu zapracować – dać mu czas, cierpliwość, nie zmuszać go do kontaktu na siłę, ale stopniowo przekonywać go do siebie. Efekty przyjdą – Czesio w końcu się ośmieli i pozwoli pogłaskać swoje jedwabiste bielutkie futerko♥️. Cały czas pracujemy z Czesiem z pomocą behawiorysty i mamy sukcesy, ale w domowych warunkach zapewne byłoby łatwiej osiągnąć progres w relacjach z ludźmi niż w kociarni, w której Czesiu teraz mieszka. Na pewno powinien trafić do spokojnego domu, do ludzi, którzy zechcą cierpliwie i pomału przekonywać go do siebie i pozwolić mu oswajać się we własnym tempie. Nie powinien natomiast trafić do domu z małymi dziećmi, bo jak wiemy mali ludzie generują wokół siebie dużo chaosu i hałasu:) Poza tym Czesiu jest kotkiem rozrywkowym😍. Jak to młodziak, uwielbia się bawić, zwłaszcza biegać za wędkami i polować na nie. Zapomina wtedy o swojej nieśmiałości i staje się prawdziwym kocim drapieżcą😍.
