Szczepan

Male · Young · 1 year

Szczepan is a young, black male cat with a very gentle disposition. He is kind, calm and exceptionally people-oriented, and human contact is something truly important to him. He eagerly approaches, accompanies and enjoys every moment of attention. This is a cat who feels best in the presence of a caregiver. Closeness, calmness and a sense of security are extremely important to him, so in shelter conditions he greatly misses constant human contact. Szczepan is looking for a home where he can be close to his caregiver, share daily moments with him and simply feel loved. If you are looking for a calm, affectionate feline companion, Szczepan will surely steal your heart. Before adoption, we recommend familiarizing yourself with the pre-adoption questionnaire and coming to the animal shelter with the completed form: Note: If you decide to adopt a cat or are considering it, be sure to bring a cat transporter or a transport bag to the animal shelter. Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Remember to secure the windows and balcony.

Szczepan to młody, czarny kocurek o bardzo łagodnym usposobieniu. Jest miły, spokojny i wyjątkowo proludzki a kontakt z człowiekiem jest dla niego czymś naprawdę ważnym. Chętnie podchodzi, towarzyszy i cieszy się każdą chwilą uwagi. To kot, który najlepiej czuje się w obecności opiekuna. Bliskość, spokój i poczucie bezpieczeństwa są dla niego niezwykle istotne, dlatego w schroniskowych warunkach bardzo tęskni za stałym kontaktem z człowiekiem. Szczepan szuka domu, w którym będzie mógł być blisko swojego opiekuna, dzielić z nim codzienne chwile i po prostu czuć się kochany. Jeśli marzysz o spokojnym, kontaktowym kocim towarzyszu Szczepan z pewnością skradnie Twoje serce. Przed adopcją sugerujemy zapoznanie się z kwestionariuszem przedadopcyjnym i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów. Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Pamiętaj, żeby zabezpieczyć okna i balkon.

About Szczepan

What life with Szczepan looks like

Szczepan is a small young adult cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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 Szczepan, answered.

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