How do I contact the shelter about Oczka?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Skałowo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Oczka on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Oczka if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Skałowo 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 Oczka 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 Oczka 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 Skałowo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Oczka 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.

Oczka

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Oczka, as her name suggests, has only one eye—she lost the other in a battle with a feline cancer, whose effects are forever etched in her history. Despite difficult beginnings, Oczka bravely faces life. In the shelter’s cat room, she runs, jumps on shelves, and participates in cat games as if nothing is amiss. However, the shelter’s space is too small for her restless soul. Oczka longs for the peace she cannot find there—a home where she can feel safe and gradually learn to trust humans. This is a kitten from the past, finding freedom—perhaps she knew the world of the streets, but human love is a new experience for her, one that requires time. That’s why we are looking for a caregiver for Oczka who is patient and compassionate, understanding that every step toward trust is a huge success for her. Oczka is waiting for you—show her that life has more to offer than what she has known so far. Be her hero and let her discover that humans are good.

PL·Show original

Oczka, jak jej imię wskazuje, ma tylko jedno oczko – drugie straciła w wyniku walki z kocim katarem, którego skutki na zawsze wpisały się w jej historię. Mimo trudnych początków, Oczka dzielnie stawia czoła życiu. W schroniskowym pokoju dla kotów biega, skacze po półkach i uczestniczy w kocich zabawach, jakby nigdy nic. Jednak przestrzeń schroniska to za mało dla jej niespokojnej duszy. Oczka tęskni za spokojem, jakiego nie może tutaj znaleźć – za domem, gdzie będzie mogła czuć się bezpiecznie i stopniowo zaufać człowiekowi. To kotka z przeszłością wolnobytującą – być może znała świat ulicy, ale miłość człowieka to dla niej nowość, na którą trzeba jej dać czas. Dlatego szukamy dla Oczki opiekuna cierpliwego i czułego, który zrozumie, że każdy krok w stronę zaufania to dla niej ogromny sukces. Oczka czeka na Ciebie – pokaż jej, że życie ma do zaoferowania coś więcej niż to, co znała dotąd. Zostań bohaterem jej opowieści i pozwól jej odkryć, że człowiek to ktoś dobry.
