Grubcia

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

Grubcia is estimated to have been born in 2012 and was brought to the Foundation at the age of ten. She once had a home but was left alone after her caregiver passed away and had to live outdoors. This greatly affected her health and mental state. She arrived at the Foundation in poor condition - scared, injured, and with serious health problems. Due to an injury, she suffers from partial paralysis of the larynx, which causes breathing problems, snoring, and coughing attacks. Despite this, her life is still full of joy - especially since she was placed in a temporary home. There, Grubcia began to open up - she is getting better at interacting with other cats, and is also overcoming her fear of humans. Although she is still sometimes distrustful, thanks to patience and perseverance, she allows herself to occasionally receive some affection - of course, on her own terms. Grubcia also has her big passions - she is a fan of hunting games and is in no way inferior to younger cats. She loves to eat (preferably everything and in any quantities) and sleep in the most surprising and uncomfortable places. Grubcia, and we too, are counting on a Permanent Home that will give her respite in her final years. Do you want to meet Grubcia? Call us. Send a message on Facebook > 504 803 311 Link to the survey

Szacujemy, że Grubcia urodziła się w 2012 roku, do Fundacji trafila już jako dziesięcioletnia kotka. Kiedyś miała dom, ale po śmierci opiekunki została sama i musiała żyć na dworze. To bardzo odbiło się na jej zdrowiu i psychice. Do Fundacji trafiła w złym stanie – wystraszona, skrzywdzona i z poważnymi problemami zdrowotnymi.W wyniku urazu cierpi na częściowe porażenie krtani, co powoduje problemy z oddychaniem, chrapanie i ataki kaszlu. Mimo tego jej życie nadal jest pełne radości – zwłaszcza odkąd trafiła do domu tymczasowego. Tam Grubcia zaczęła się otwierać – coraz lepiej radzi sobie w kontakcie z innymi kotami, a także przełamuje lęk wobec człowieka. Choć nadal bywa nieufna, dzięki cierpliwości i wytrwałości pozwala sobie czasem na odrobinę czułości – oczywiście na swoich zasadach.Grubcia ma też swoje wielkie pasje – jest fanką zabaw łowieckich i w niczym nie ustępuje młodszym kotom. Uwielbia jeść (najlepiej wszystko i w każdych ilościach) oraz spać w najbardziej zaskakujących i niewygodnych miejscach. Grubcia, i my także, liczymy na Dom Stały, który da jej wytchnienie w ostatnich latach życia. Chcesz poznać Grubcię ? Zadzwoń do nas. Wyślij wiadomość na Facebooku > 504 803 311 Link do ankiety

About Grubcia

What life with Grubcia looks like

Grubcia is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Pomocy Zwierzętom Kłębek in Poland.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Grubcia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Grubcia?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Pomocy Zwierzętom Kłębek handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Grubcia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Grubcia if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Pomocy Zwierzętom Kłębek 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Grubcia 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 Grubcia 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 Pomocy Zwierzętom Kłębek early rather than rehoming privately; they know Grubcia 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.
