Hektor

Mixed Breed · Male

Nutritional and health issues will be discussed during adoption. Temperament: Hektor is a black tabby who greets visitors among the first. He loves being near people. He likes rubbing against and lying beside them. With petting, it varies, as if he wants it for a moment, but he has a limit that should be respected. No limit for rubbing has been noticed. He will show what he wants, a cat with character. He likes treats and chasing fishing rods. He likes catnip, silver vine, and valerian. He is very picky with other cats and does not like every cat, prefers to dominate, even arranging the cats. We do not recommend him for a large group. It is worth getting to know him and deciding whether he would be a good companion for another animal. He will certainly cope well as a single cat, and we recommend this option. Of course, he needs daily doses of play and affection.

Kwestie żywieniowe i zdrowotne będą omawiane w trakcie adopcji. Usposobienie: Hektor to czarny gagatek, który jako jeden z pierwszych wita odwiedzających. Uwielbia przebywać w pobliżu człowieka. Lubi ocierać się i leżeć obok niego. Z głaskaniem bywa różnie, niby chwilę chce, ale ma na to limit, który należy przestrzegać. Limitu na ocieranie się nie zauważono. Sam pokaże czego chce, taki kot z charakterem. Lubi smaczki i gonitwy za wędkami. Lubi walerianę, kocimiętkę i matatabi. W stosunku do kotów jest bardzo wybredny i nie każdego kota lubi, woli rządzić, a nawet ustawiać koty. Nie zalecamy do dokocenia do dużej grupy. Warto go poznać i zdecydować czy byłby dobrym kompanem do innego zwierzęcego towarzysza. Na pewno dobrze poradzi sobie jako jedynak i tą opcję zalecamy. Oczywiście należy zapewnić mu codzienną dawkę zabaw i czułości.

About Hektor

What life with Hektor looks like

Hektor is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Hektor, answered.

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