Elin

Mixed Breed · Male

When we took Elina into our care, we had a completely different idea of what lay ahead. We’d expected to take in an older, pregnant cat who was about to give birth any day now. But when she arrived, we were in for a surprise—Elina had balls. Her belly was huge, looking as if it would burst at any moment, yet there were definitely no kittens inside. What we had before us was an elderly tomcat with scars from old fights with other cats, whose abdomen was filled with free fluid. The question, though, was why. Elina’s FeLV test came back positive, so there was a possibility that she had a tumor in her body. In the end, however, fortunately, FIP was confirmed instead of a tumor. Elina looked at us in all her glory—a cuddly, sweet little tomcat who didn’t want to die. He behaved as if he weren’t really sick at all. So we decided that we simply had to save Elina, even if it meant spending money.

Když jsme přijímali Elina do naší péče, měli jsme úplně jinou představu o tom, co nás čeká. Měli jsme přijímat starší těhotnou kočku, která má co nevidět porodit. Když ale přijel, čekalo nás překvápko, Elin měl koule. Velké bříško měl, vypadal, že praskne, ale koťátka v něm rozhodně nebyla. Měli jsme před sebou staršího kocourka se šrámy ze starých bitev s kocoury, kterému se břicho plnilo volnou tekutinou. Otázkou ale bylo proč. Elinkovi vyšel pozitivně FeLV test, takže bylo ve hře, že má v těle nádor, nakonec se ale místo nádoru potvrdila naštěstí FIP. Koukal na nás Elinek ve své celé kráse, mazlíček, miloučký kocourek, který nechtěl umřít. Choval se, jako kdyby mu nic vlastně nebylo. Tak jsme se rozhodli, že Elinka musíme zachránit, i když nás to bude stát peníze.

About Elin

What life with Elin looks like

Elin is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Útulek Kocour Felix (PSOZ) in Czech Republic.

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 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 Elin, answered.

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