Dante

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Dante appeared unexpectedly at the plots in Twardogórze. Nobody knows where he came from, but from the very first moments it was visible that he is a sensitive, loved little cat. He moves a bit clumsily, sometimes sways while sleeping - this is the effect of previous changes in the spine (osteophytes), probably due to a past injury. Veterinarians took care of a full diagnosis and today it is known that Dante does not suffer, and regular, simple exercises help him maintain his mobility. The exercises are easy and do not require any equipment - our volunteer will gladly show how to support Dantego at home. Joint training builds a bond, especially when a cooked turkey leg appears as a reward. Dante cannot be kept in a cage - limiting movement hinders his progress. The best thing you can give him is a calm space and care. He copes very well: uses the litter box, jumps on scratching posts and low window sills. He only has a problem reaching his tail during washing, but this is a minor issue compared to his big heart. Dante is about 6 years old, has a positive FIV, is vaccinated, neutered, and dewormed. He has a food allergy which manifests as itchy ears, a single-protein diet with turkey solves this problem. He gets along better with kittens than with tomcats, but it would be ideal if he were an only cat - he is jealous and likes to have the human all to himself. Dante is currently staying in a temporary home and is looking for a permanent home.

PL·Show original

Dante pojawił się niespodziewanie na działkach w Twardogórze. Nikt nie wie, skąd przyszedł, ale od pierwszych chwil było widać, że to wrażliwy, kochany kocur. Porusza się trochę niezgrabnie, czasem chwieje się po drzemce — to efekt dawnych zmian w kręgosłupie (osteofity), prawdopodobnie po przebytym kiedyś urazie. Weterynarze zadbali o pełną diagnostykę i dziś wiadomo, że Dante nie cierpi, a regularne, proste ćwiczenia pomagają mu utrzymać sprawność. Ćwiczenia są łatwe, nie wymagają żadnego sprzętu — nasza wolontariuszka z radością pokaże, jak wspierać Dantego w domowych warunkach. Wspólne treningi bardzo budują więź, szczególnie gdy w nagrodę pojawia się gotowany indyczek. Dante nie może być zamykany w klatce — ograniczenie ruchu cofa jego postępy. Najlepsze, co można mu dać, to spokojna przestrzeń i czułość. Radzi sobie świetnie: korzysta z kuwety, wskakuje na drapaki i niskie parapety. Ma jedynie problem z dosięgnięciem do ogonka podczas mycia, ale to drobiazg przy jego wielkim sercu. Dante ma około 6 lat, ma dodatni FIV, jest zaszczepiony, wykastrowany i odrobaczony. Ma alergię pokarmową, która objawia się swędzeniem uszu, karma monobiałkowa z indyka rozwiązuje ten problem. Z kotkami dogaduje się lepiej niż z kocurami, ale idealnie byłoby, gdyby był jedynakiem — jest zazdrośnikiem i lubi mieć człowieka tylko dla siebie. Dante przebywa w domu tymczasowym i szuka domu stałego.

About Dante

What life with Dante looks like

Dante is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja EkoStraż in Wrocław.

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 Poland

Polish shelters maintain established transport routes to Germany, Netherlands, Austria, and Sweden. Animals leave sterilized and chipped. Adoption fees are typically lower than in Western Europe (often €50–€150) but adopters cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Dante, answered.

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