Kostek

Mixed Breed · Male

Kostek is a male cat who arrived at the animal shelter at the end of 2021 as a three-month-old kitten, along with two brothers. The kittens were shy and not well socialized with people, and the stay at the animal shelter does not help in taming them. The cats remained cautious and shy. The brothers found a home, but Kostek remained at the animal shelter. Kostek loves other cats, so he would be a great companion for another cat. With people, he is cautious and avoids contact, but we are convinced that in a home, if someone gives him a chance, he will open up and trust a person. Just be there and don't expect anything from Kostek, and when he sees that nothing threatens him, he will certainly open his little cat heart wide. Kostek is healthy, dewormed, vaccinated, and neutered. He has negative FIV/FeLV tests. We are looking for a safe and secure home for Kostek (secure windows/terrace).

PL·Show original

Kostek to kocurek, który trafił do schroniska pod koniec 2021 roku jako trzymiesięczne kociątko, wraz z dwójką braci. Kocięta były nieśmiałe i mało zsocjalizowane z człowiekiem, a pobyt w schronisku nie ułatwia oswajania. Koty pozostały ostrożne i nieśmiałe. Bracia znaleźli dom, a Kostek pozostał w schronisku. Kostek uwielbia inne koty, więc byłby świetnym towarzyszem dla innego kota. W stosunkach z ludźmi jest ostrożny, unika kontaktu, ale jesteśmy przekonani, że w domu, jeśli ktoś da mu szansę, otworzy się i zaufa człowiekowi. Wystarczy tylko być i nie oczekiwać niczego od Kostka, a kiedy zobaczy, że nic mu nie grozi, to z pewnością otworzy szeroko swoje małe kocie serduszko Kostek jest zdrowy, odrobaczony, zaszczepiony i wykastrowany. Ma ujemne testy FIV/FeLV. Szukamy dla Kostka domu niewychodzącego i bezpiecznego (zabezpieczone okna/balkon).

About Kostek

What life with Kostek looks like

Kostek is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Milanówku 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 Kostek, answered.

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