Karol

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Karol is a 5-year-old male cat who came to the animal shelter along with Arnim (case no. 29/26) due to being given up by the owner. Both kittens are very stressed and shy, so they tend to avoid contact with caregivers for now. We are looking for a calm home where they can feel safe and start a new, happy life. We would like them to go together - their closeness gives them support and helps them adapt to the new environment.

Karol to 5-letni kocurek, który razem z Arnim (nr ew. 29/26) trafił do schroniska z powodu oddania przez właściciela. Oba kocurki są mocno zestresowane i lękliwe, dlatego na razie raczej unikają kontaktu z opiekunami. Szukamy dla nich spokojnego domu, w którym będą mogły poczuć się bezpiecznie i zacząć nowe, szczęśliwe życie. Zależy nam, aby pojechały razem – ich bliskość daje im wsparcie i ułatwia adaptację w nowym środowisku.

About Karol

What life with Karol looks like

Karol is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Wrocław in Wrocław.

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.

Note from the shelter: Bonded pair with Arnim - must be adopted together

🇵🇱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 Karol, answered.

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