Adopt Leszek

Unknown

Leszek Leszek was someone's living shield... in what world do we live? Leszek was caught for neutering, limped on the back leg, so additional X-rays were done. The X-rays showed that the small cat had already met a human from the worst side. He has shot pellets under the spine and a femoral bone injury. Leszek underwent surgery to remove the head of the femur. It's probably a miracle that the kitten has undamaged nerves... Please support the treatment of this kitten: Thank you for every zloty given for his treatment! The boy turned out to be very nice and sociable pet. He gets along well with cats, comes happily for pets, and always offers a sheep. When he discovered catnip toys, he went crazy with happiness. :) Leszek is an adult cat, FIV +. Leszka is virtually supporting: Tosia K.

Leszek Leszek był czyjąś żywą tarczą… w jakim świecie my żyjemy? Leszek został złapany na kastrację, kulał na tył, więc miał dodatkowo zrobione zdjęcia RTG. RTG pokazało, że kocur zdążył poznać człowieka od najgorszej strony. Ma śrut pod kręgosłupem i uraz kości udowej. Leszek przeszedł operację resekcji głowy kości udowej. To chyba cud, że kociak ma nieuszkodzone nerwy… Prosimy o wsparcie na leczenie kocurka: Dziękujemy za każdą złotówkę przekazaną na jego leczenie! Chłopak okazał się być bardzo miłym, towarzyskim zwierzakiem. Dobrze dogaduję się z kotami, chętnie przychodzi na głaski, każdego częstuje barankiem. Kiedy odkrył walerianowe zabawki, oszalał ze szczęścia. :) Leszek jest dojrzałym kotem, FIV +. Leszka wirtualnie wspiera: Tosia K.

About Leszek

What life with Leszek looks like

Leszek 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 Leszek, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Leszek?
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 Leszek on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Leszek 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 Leszek 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 Leszek 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 Leszek 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.
