Adopt Gorbacsov

Domestic Shorthair · Male · Senior · 17 years

The 2-year-old male cat was left at the Erzsébeti Veterinary Clinic with a severe, several-day-old jaw fracture. The cat was operated on and neutered at the clinic, but could not be placed, so they asked for our shelter's help. Gorbi is recovering well from the surgery, is cooperative and a very kind cat. After the removal of the stitches, he is looking for a new owner.

Az Erzsébeti Állatorvosi Rendelő kapujában hagyták ezt a 2 év körüli kandúrt csúnya, több napos állkapocstöréssel. A cicát a rendelőben megműtötték, ivartalanították, de elhelyezni nem tudták, így állatotthonunk segítségét kérték. Gorbi nagyon jól viseli a műtétet, együttműködő, nagyon kedves cica.

About Gorbacsov

What life with Gorbacsov looks like

Gorbacsov is a medium-sized senior domestic shorthair cat waiting at Noé Állatotthon in Budapest.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

Note from the shelter: Recent jaw surgery with wire removal pending

🇭🇺Adopting from Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gorbacsov, answered.

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