Rubby

Mixed Breed · Female

Rubby was born in spring 2018, together with three siblings, to a cat whose owners in the village of Roštín barely looked after her. None of the kittens came to the shelter until they were half a year old, and they are still rather shy and don't much enjoy being cuddled or stroked. Rubby is a beautiful, healthy little cat weighing nearly 4 kg. She is neutered, vaccinated, tested for FeLV/FIV, and of course regularly treated against parasites. What kind of home would suit Rubby? One where people have the patience to teach her not to be afraid of humans, of course.

Rubby se narodila na jaře roku 2018 spolu se třemi sourozenci kočičce, o kterou se majitelé v obci Roštín téměř nestarali. Do útulku se všechna koťata dostala až v půl roce věku, doteď jsou plašší a o mazlení a pohlazení nestojí. Rubby je krásná a zdravá skoro 4kilová kočička. Je vykastrovaná, naočkovaná, otestovaná na FeLV/FIV a samozřejmě pravidelně ošetřovaná proti parazitům. Jaký domov by byl pro Rubby vhodný? No přece takový, ve kterém by měli trpělivost ji naučit se nebát lidí.

About Rubby

What life with Rubby looks like

Rubby is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Zatoulané štěstí in Czech Republic.

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 Rubby, answered.

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