GUSTAW

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 2 months

GUSTAW is a one-year-old male cat who arrived under our care on June 11, 2025, from Międzylesie – after an accident that thankfully is now just a memory. Today, he’s a completely different cat: healthy, neutered, and ready to start a new chapter with his human. He’s a gentle, calm boy with a delicate disposition. In his first contact with a new person, he can be a bit distant – preferring to observe from a safe distance and take his time to get used to the situation. However, once he feels more secure and trusts someone, he can make that important step: approaching, offering himself for petting, and showing his tender side. GUSTAW is curious – even around strangers, one can see his interest in the world. This is a cat with great potential who, in the right home, will flourish and become an excellent, devoted companion. He simply needs patience, understanding, and a calm approach. He does well in the company of other cats – he doesn’t seek conflicts, preferring to stay in the background and happily shares space without issues.

Gustaw to około roczny kocur, który trafił pod naszą opiekę 11 czerwca 2025 roku z Międzylesia – po wypadku, który na szczęście jest już tylko wspomnieniem. Dziś to zupełnie inny kot: zdrowy, wykastrowany i gotowy, by rozpocząć nowy rozdział u boku swojego człowieka. To łagodny, spokojny chłopak o delikatnym usposobieniu. W pierwszym kontakcie z nową osobą bywa nieco zdystansowany – woli obserwować z bezpiecznej odległości i dać sobie czas na oswojenie się z sytuacją. Jednak gdy już poczuje się pewniej i komuś zaufa, potrafi zrobić ten ważny krok: podejść, nadstawić się do głaskania i pokazać swoją czułą stronę. Gustaw jest ciekawski – nawet wobec obcych osób widać w nim zainteresowanie światem. To kot z dużym potencjałem, który w odpowiednim domu rozkwitnie i stanie się wspaniałym, oddanym towarzyszem. Potrzebuje jedynie cierpliwości, wyrozumiałości i spokojnego podejścia. Dobrze odnajduje się w towarzystwie innych kotów – nie szuka konfliktów, raczej trzyma się na uboczu i bez problemu współdzieli przestrzeń.

About GUSTAW

What life with GUSTAW looks like

GUSTAW is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇵🇱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 GUSTAW, answered.

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