Lolek

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 3 months

Lolek is a timid and cautious cat who has likely lived on his own for most of his life. As a stray, he has experienced cold, hunger, and indifference. He was caught during this year's harshest frosts. Currently, he resides in a foundation where he is slowly adjusting to his new environment. He is still wary of unfamiliar people and cats. For a while, he lived with other cats in a cattery, but their presence clearly stressed him. He now lives in a separate room. When left alone and feeling safe, he emerges from his hiding place, freely moves around the room, and uses all available space. This shows that he primarily needs peace and a sense of security to gradually open up. At this point, it's difficult to fully describe his character, as he is still in the process of acclimating. He needs time to gain trust and convince himself that humans can also mean peace, care, and security. We are looking for a responsible home for Lolek with patient caregivers, preferably those with experience with fearful cats or those that have not had good experiences with people for most of their lives. Building a relationship with Lolek will require time, understanding, and respect for his boundaries. We want him to find his place in a new environment at his own pace, without pressure. Lolek should go to a home where the balcony and windows are properly secured to ensure his safety. We are looking for a place where he will be surrounded by caring care and finally be able to start 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. Charakter Obecnie 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 small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇵🇱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 Puszatek 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 Puszatek 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 Puszatek 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.
