Mimi

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Mimi was found in the basement of an apartment building with her brother and mother, where they hid away from human contact. Mimi is therefore shy and keeps her distance, but with love and patience she can slowly start to learn that people can be friends. She is ready to find a home where she will be given time and space to get her bearings and feel safe. Mimi is suitable for someone who understands that a relationship with a shy cat is built gradually and with gentleness. If you have a place in your heart and home for a fragile feline soul, Mimi could be the one who will reward you with her unique presence over time. Only in the company of another cat.

CS·Show original

Mimi byla spolu se svým bráškou a mamkou bylo nalezena ve sklepě bytového domu, kde se ukrývali daleko od lidského kontaktu. Mimi je proto zatím plachá a drží si odstup, ale s láskou a trpělivostí může pomalu začít poznávat, že lidé mohou být přátelé. ​Je připravená najít domov, kde ji dají čas a prostor, aby se rozkoukala a cítila v bezpečí. Mimi je vhodná pro někoho, kdo chápe, že vztah s plachou kočkou se buduje postupně a s jemností. Pokud máte místo v srdci a domově pro křehkou kočičí duši, Mimi by mohla být ta pravá, kdo se vám časem odmění svou jedinečnou přítomností. Pouze do (ve) společnosti jiné kočky.

About Mimi

What life with Mimi looks like

Mimi is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Second Chance Azyl Ostrava in Ostrava.

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 Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mimi, answered.

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