Lolek

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

How did he end up with us? Lolek has most likely been fending for himself throughout his entire life so far. As a stray cat, he’s experienced cold, hunger, and indifference. He was rescued during this year’s worst frost. Character: Currently, he’s staying at the foundation, where he’s still getting used to his new surroundings. He’s cautious and clearly still uncertain. He’s still wary of unfamiliar people and cats he doesn’t know. For some time, he stayed in a cattery with other cats, but their presence visibly stressed him out. Now, he lives in a separate room. When he’s left alone and feels safe, he emerges from his hiding spot, moves freely around the room, and makes full use of all the space available to him. This shows that above all, he needs peace and a sense of security in order to gradually open up. At this stage, it’s difficult to fully describe his character, as he’s still going through the acclimatization process. He needs time to build trust and realize that humans can also mean calmness, care, and safety. What kind of home are we looking for him? We’re searching for a responsible home with patient caregivers—ideally those who have experience with fearful cats or cats who’ve had mostly negative experiences with people throughout their lives. Building a relationship with Lolek will take time, patience, and respect for his boundaries. We want him to settle into his new environment at his own pace, without any pressure. Lolek should go to a home where balconies and windows are properly secured to ensure his complete safety. We’re looking for a place where he’ll be surrounded by caring attention and can finally begin a new, peaceful life.

Jak trafił do nas?Lolek najprawdopodobniej przez całe swoje dotychczasowe życie radził sobie sam. Jako kot bezdomny zaznał chłodu, głodu i obojętności. Został odłowiony podczas tegorocznych, największych mrozów. CharakterObecnie przebywa w fundacji, gdzie wciąż oswaja się z nowym otoczeniem. Jest ostrożnym i wyraźnie jeszcze niepewnym kotem. Wciąż obawia się obcych mu ludzi oraz nieznanych sobie kotów. Przez pewien czas przebywał z innymi kotami w kociarni, jednak ich obecność wyraźnie go stresowała. Obecnie mieszka w osobnym pomieszczeniu. Gdy zostaje sam i czuje się bezpiecznie, wychodzi ze swojej kryjówki, swobodnie porusza się po pokoju i korzysta z całej dostępnej przestrzeni. To pokazuje, że potrzebuje przede wszystkim spokoju i poczucia bezpieczeństwa, by stopniowo się otworzyć. Na ten moment trudno w pełni opisać jego charakter, ponieważ nadal przechodzi proces aklimatyzacji. Potrzebuje czasu, aby nabrać zaufania i przekonać się, że człowiek może oznaczać również spokój, troskę i bezpieczeństwo. Jakiego domu dla niego szukamy?Dla Lolka szukamy odpowiedzialnego domu z cierpliwymi opiekunami, najlepiej mającymi doświadczenie z kotami lękliwymi lub takimi, które przez większość życia nie miały dobrych doświadczeń z ludźmi. Budowanie relacji z Lolkiem będzie wymagało czasu, wyrozumiałości i uszanowania jego granic. Chcemy, aby mógł odnaleźć się w nowym miejscu we własnym tempie, bez wywierania presji. Lolek powinien trafić do domu, w którym balkon i okna będą odpowiednio zabezpieczone, by zapewnić mu pełne bezpieczeństwo. Szukamy dla niego miejsca, w którym zostanie otoczony troskliwą opieką i wreszcie będzie mógł rozpocząć nowe, spokojne życie.

About Lolek

What life with Lolek looks like

Lolek is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Ziemia Obiecana in 92-761 Łódź.

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 Lolek, answered.

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