PRUSEK

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Year of birth: 2021 Prusek became a victim of abandonment. His former owner left him in a carrier, along with another cat named Ken, not far from our shelter. Fortunately, our volunteers spotted the abandoned carrier in time and reacted swiftly. It’s hard to imagine what could have happened if the cats had stayed there longer. Prusek is a blind kitten—his eyes are not fully developed. Despite his disability, he adapts wonderfully to his familiar surroundings and manages perfectly well in everyday life. Recently, it seemed as though fate was finally smiling on him. He went to a foster home, but just a few days later, he returned to the shelter. The reason for his return was the resident female cat’s lack of acceptance. Unfortunately, the cats weren’t given enough time to get to know each other calmly and build mutual trust, so their relationship had no chance to develop. After returning from his foster placement, Prusek has changed dramatically. He’s disoriented, withdrawn, and apathetic. It’s hard for him to understand why he’s lost yet another place that was supposed to be his home. He’s a very gentle and sensitive cat. When he feels safe, he loves being petted, purrs loudly, kneads vigorously, and gives little kisses—so at the shelter, he earned the endearing nickname “Całuśek.” He needs a patient caregiver who will give him time, understanding, and allow him to rebuild his trust in people. Prusek is looking for a real home—a home where he’ll be treated like a member of the family and where no one will give up on him after just a few days. A home that will offer him time, love, and a sense of security forever.

Rok urodzenia: 2021 Prusek stał się ofiarą porzucenia. Jego była właścicielka zostawiła go w transporterku razem z drugim kotem, Kenem, niedaleko naszego schroniska. Na szczęście nasi wolontariusze zauważyli porzucony transporter w porę i szybko zareagowali. Trudno sobie wyobrazić, co mogłoby się stać, gdyby koty pozostały tam dłużej. Prusek jest kotkiem niewidomym – jego gałki oczne nie są w pełni wykształcone. Mimo swojej niepełnosprawności świetnie odnajduje się w znanym otoczeniu i doskonale radzi sobie na co dzień. Niedawno wydawało się, że los w końcu się do niego uśmiechnął. Pojechał do domu adopcyjnego, jednak już po kilku dniach wrócił do schroniska. Powodem zwrotu był brak akceptacji ze strony kotki rezydentki. Niestety, kotom nie dano czasu na spokojne zapoznanie się i wzajemne oswojenie, przez co relacja nie miała szans się rozwinąć. Po powrocie z adopcji Prusek bardzo się zmienił. Jest zdezorientowany, wycofany i apatyczny. Trudno mu zrozumieć, dlaczego po raz kolejny stracił miejsce, które miało być jego domem. To bardzo delikatny i wrażliwy kot. Gdy poczuje się bezpiecznie, uwielbia głaskanie, głośno mruczy, strzela baranki i rozdaje buziaki, dlatego w schronisku zyskał uroczy pseudonim Całuśek. Potrzebuje cierpliwego opiekuna, który da mu czas, zrozumienie i pozwoli odbudować zaufanie do ludzi. Prusek szuka prawdziwego domu – takiego, w którym będzie traktowany jak członek rodziny i w którym nikt nie zrezygnuje z niego po kilku dniach. Domu, który da mu czas, miłość i poczucie bezpieczeństwa na zawsze.

About PRUSEK

What life with PRUSEK looks like

PRUSEK is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Zielonej Górze in Zielona Góra.

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 PRUSEK, answered.

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