Jolka

Unknown

Jolka Plus size Jola is looking for a home! Jola didn't have an easy start — she lived in a house with people who were addicted, and then she was completely alone. She came to us scared, cautious, with heavy memories. At first, she wasn't a fan of people — she could bite if someone got too close. But that's in the past. Today, Jola is a cat who approaches for pets, purrs, and seeks contact. She's still an individualist — she doesn't want to be friends with other cats, but she really likes people. She needs a quiet home, without small children, where someone will respect her boundaries and show her that life can be good. She was probably born in 2023, lives in Torun, and is ready for adoption throughout Poland. She's also... round. Definitely too round. In the cattery, we are not able to help her lose weight, so the future caregiver must be ready for a diet and more play. Because although it's nice to snuggle on the windowsill, Jola's health is most important. Give her a chance. After everything she has been through, she deserves a better life. Virtual support from: Aś P.

Jolka Plus size Jola szuka domu! Jola nie miała łatwego startu — mieszkała w domu z osobami uzależnionymi, a później została zupełnie sama. Trafiła do nas przerażona, ostrożna, z ciężkimi wspomnieniami. Na początku nie była fanką ludzi — potrafiła dziabnąć, gdy ktoś za blisko sprzątał. Ale to już przeszłość. Dziś Jola to kotka, która sama podchodzi po głaski, mruczy i szuka kontaktu. Wciąż jest indywidualistką — z innymi kotami nie chce się zaprzyjaźniać, ale ludzi już naprawdę lubi. Potrzebuje spokojnego domu, bez małych dzieci, gdzie ktoś uszanuje jej granice i pokaże, że życie może być dobre. Urodziła się najprawdopodobniej w 2023 roku, mieszka w Toruniu, jest gotowa do adopcji w całej Polsce. Jest też… okrągła. Zdecydowanie zbyt okrągła. W kociarni nie jesteśmy w stanie pomóc jej schudnąć, więc przyszły opiekun musi być gotowy na dietę i więcej zabawy. Bo choć z pulpetem miło się poprzytulać, zdrowie Joli jest najważniejsze. Daj jej szansę. Po wszystkim co przeszła, zasługuje na lepsze życie. Burasie wirtualnie wspiera: Aś P.

About Jolka

What life with Jolka looks like

Jolka is a adult cat waiting at Fundacja Kot Toruń 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 Jolka, answered.

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