Filemon

Mixed Breed · Male

Filemon came to the foundation from Dydna together with his brother Grzesiek, the brothers are currently living in a temporary home, waiting for adoption. Filemon is initially cautious, but literally within a moment he becomes the best buddy. He is the type of cat that must see and know everything, so he is always "around" and controls the situation. He loves contact: jumps on laps, rubs his whiskers, and in the morning can make himself an alarm clock for petting. Scratching behind the ears is his weak spot. Once he starts getting petted, he won't let go quickly, he persists and can be stubborn until he feels it was "proper." He will stay on your hands for a while, but generally has his own ways and likes to return to his own matters. He is a young, energetic cat: runs, explores, hunts the fishing rod and has his favorite mouse. New sounds interest him more than they stress him. We are looking for a non-outgoing, loving, safe home for Filemon, with a secured balcony (if there is one) and/or windows, which will surround him with the best care. Adoption preferably in a pair with Grzesiek or to another cat who likes cat play. WARNING!

PL·Show original

Filemon przyjechał do fundacji z Dydni razem z bratem Grzesiem, bracia mieszkają obecnie w domu tymczasowym, gdzie czekają na adopcję. Filemon na początku podchodzi ostrożnie, ale dosłownie po chwili robi się z niego najlepszy kumpel. To typ kota, który musi wszystko widzieć i wiedzieć, więc zawsze jest „gdzieś obok” i kontroluje sytuację. Najbardziej kocha kontakt: wskakuje na kolana, ociera się wąsami, a rano potrafi zrobić z siebie budzik do głaskania. Mizianie za uszami to jego słaby punkt. Jak już zacznie być głaskany, to nie odpuści szybko dopomina się i potrafi być uparty, dopóki nie uzna, że było „porządnie”. Na rękach chwilę wytrzyma, ale generalnie ma swoje drogi i lubi wrócić do swoich spraw. Jest młodym energicznym kotem: biega, szuka, poluje na wędkę i ma swoją ukochaną myszkę. Nowe dźwięki bardziej go ciekawią niż stresują. Szukamy dla Filemona niewychodzącego, kochającego, bezpiecznego domu, z zabezpieczonym balkonem (jeśli jest) i/lub oknami, który otoczy go najlepszą opieką. Adopcja najchętniej w dwupaku z Grzesiem lub do innego lubiącego kocie zabawy kota. UWAGA! Aby adoptować kota postępuj wg poniższych wytycznych: Otwórz ankietę adopcyjną (link: ), wypełnij i poczekaj na kontakt z naszej strony – zadzwonimy lub odpiszemy na maila, żeby umówić się na wizytę przedadopcyjną.

About Filemon

What life with Filemon looks like

Filemon is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Stawiamy na Łapy in Poland.

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 Filemon, answered.

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