Nikos

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Nikos, also known as Niuniek, was found as a roughly 4-week-old kitten with his dead mother and two sisters. He was bottle-fed. Unfortunately, Nikos has been dealing with idiopathic epilepsy since he was a kitten and is under the care of a neurologist in Łódź. He must visit the doctor periodically and have his blood tested. He must also take anti-epileptic medication for the rest of his life, a syrup every 8 hours and a tablet every 12 hours. Otherwise, he is a full-of-energy cat. He has a million ideas and pranks in his head. He likes other cats and dogs. However, due to his condition, the home must be calm, very responsible, and have time available. Failure to administer medication or irregular administration of medication can be fatal.

Nikos vel Niuniek został znaleziony jako ok. 4 tygodniowe kocię przy martwej matce wraz z dwoma siostrami. Wykarmiony butelką. Niestety Nikosek od maluszka boryka się z padaczką idiopatyczną i jest pod opieką neurologa w Łodzi. Musi co jakiś czas odwiedzać doktora i mieć badaną krew. Musi też dożywotnio przyjmować leki na padaczkę co 8 godzin syrop i co 12 tabletkę. Po za tym to kot którego wszędzie pełno. Milion pomysłów i psot w głowie. Wszędzie musi dosłownie wpaść i wszystko sprawdzić. Lubi inne koty i psy. Ale ze względu na chorobę dom musi być spokojny, bardzo odpowiedzialny i dysponujący czasem. Niepodawanie leków lub podawanie nieregularnie grozi mu śmiercią.

About Nikos

What life with Nikos looks like

Nikos is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Miasto Kotów 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 Nikos, answered.

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