Manu

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 10 months

Manu came to us together with his brother. He is a calm male cat with rather delicate and reserved character. He is not yet very expressive in showing feelings - while being petted he can slightly stiffen, but he does not run away and allows contact. Everything suggests that he just needs some time to fully trust a person and feel safe. Manu really likes to rest in soft nests and happily takes long naps there. He well tolerates the presence of other cats and it is often seen sleeping in their company. The male cat is vaccinated, microchipped and has had the neutering procedure, so he is already ready to find a new home. We are looking for a calm, patient home for Manu that will give him time to open up and allow him to build a relationship with a person at his own pace.

PL·Show original

Manu trafił do nas razem ze swoim bratem. To spokojny kocurek o raczej delikatnym i wycofanym usposobieniu. Nie jest jeszcze bardzo wylewny w okazywaniu uczuć – podczas głaskania potrafi lekko zesztywnieć, jednak nie ucieka i pozwala na kontakt. Wszystko wskazuje na to, że potrzebuje po prostu trochę czasu, aby w pełni zaufać człowiekowi i poczuć się bezpiecznie. Manu bardzo lubi odpoczywać w miękkich legowiskach i chętnie ucina sobie tam długie drzemki. Dobrze toleruje obecność innych kotów i często można zobaczyć, jak śpi w ich towarzystwie. Kocurek jest zaszczepiony, zachipowany oraz po zabiegu kastracji, dlatego jest już gotowy, by znaleźć nowy dom. Szukamy dla Manu spokojnego, cierpliwego domu, który da mu czas na otwarcie się i pozwoli mu budować relację z człowiekiem we własnym tempie.

About Manu

What life with Manu looks like

Manu is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Dłużyna Górna in Poland.

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. Adopters usually cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Manu, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Manu?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Dłużyna Górna handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Manu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Manu if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Dłużyna Górna 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Manu 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 Manu 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 Dłużyna Górna early rather than rehoming privately; they know Manu 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.
