How do I contact the shelter about Dorotka?

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 Dorotka on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Dorotka 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 Dorotka 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 Dorotka 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 Dorotka 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.

Dorotka

Female · Adult · 4 years

Date of arrival: 25.10.2022 Record number: 169/2022 Gender: female cat Born: September 2022, red, vaccinated, spayed, FIV and FeLV negative Dorotka is a cat from an overpopulated area near Zruč nad Sázavou, where we are trying to have the cats sterilized and find homes for kittens. Dorotka is one of our most gentle cats. She is so modest and unassuming that we almost wouldn't have noticed her, but she needs us every day just like the other cats. She has become very affectionate and brings us a lot of joy, her previous fear is gone, and she really enjoys every stroke. However, she can be more reserved with strangers, and a new owner should be prepared to give her time and patience, as she is sensitive and will need some time to adjust to changes. She has a perfect character, a very kind cat not only towards people but also towards other cat friends, and would like to share a home with someone else, she doesn't want to be an only child. Looking for a home in apartment conditions, window netting or balcony netting required. Definitely in a quieter household, without small children, etc.

Datum přijetí: 25. 10. 2022 Evidenční číslo: 169/2022 Pohlaví: kočka Narození: září 2022 odčervená, očkovaná, kastrovaná, FIV a FeLV negativní Dorotka je kočička z přemnožené lokality u Zruče nad Sázavou, kde se snažíme kastrovat a koťátkům hledat domovy. Dorotka je jedna z našich nejzlatějších. Je tak skromná a nenáročná, že bychom o ní ani skoro nevěděli, ale denně nás potřebuje stejně jako ostatní kočičky. Vymazlila se krásně a dělá nám moc radost, dřívější strach je tentam, teď si každé pohlazení moc užívá. Nicméně k cizím lidem může být zdrženlivější a nový páníček tak musí počítat s tím, dát ji v domově čas a trpělivost, je citlivá a změnu bude muset chvíli vstřebat. Povahově je to bezchybná, moc hodná kočička nejen ve vztahu k lidem, ale i k dalším kočičím kamarádům, a s některým by ráda sdílela domov, jako jedináček by být nechtěla. Domov hledá v bytových podmínkách, podmínkou zasíťování oken/balkonu. Určitě do klidnější domácnosti, bez malých dětí atp.
