Tako

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Hello, I'm Tako! I was probably born in late July 2026, and I came to the shelter on September 16th. My journey to Psitula was quite unusual - I arrived under the hood of a car from Słoneczna Dolina housing estate on Brzechwy Street. I must admit, the rescue operation itself wasn't my favorite. For about three hours, I tried to avoid being caught and wasn't about to make it easy for anyone. But everything ended well, and I arrived at the shelter safe and sound. I'm still a bit of a suspicious kitten, but I'm also very playful, curious, and full of energy. I love playing, running, and being wild, and everything around me is very interesting. I get along with other cats, although sometimes I feel like I don't quite understand what they're trying to tell me. I'm still learning cat etiquette! I use the litter box and am getting better at navigating the shelter's daily routine. I've already been vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. In the future, my caregiver should take me to the shelter for a free neutering procedure. I'm looking for a home that will give me some time to gain trust and let me be myself - a curious, energetic kitten who is just getting to know people and the world. If you like cats with character, maybe I'll steal your heart?

Cześć, jestem Tako! Urodziłem się prawdopodobnie pod koniec lipca 2026 roku, a do schroniska trafiłem 16 września. Moja droga do Psitula była jednak dość nietypowa – przyjechałem pod maską samochodu z osiedla Słoneczna Dolina przy ul. Brzechwy.Muszę przyznać, że sama akcja ratunkowa nie przypadła mi do gustu. Przez około trzy godziny skutecznie próbowałem uniknąć złapania i nie zamierzałem ułatwiać nikomu zadania. Ostatecznie jednak wszystko dobrze się skończyło i cały oraz zdrowy dotarłem do schroniska.Jestem jeszcze trochę nieufnym kocurkiem, ale za to bardzo wesołym, ciekawskim i pełnym energii. Uwielbiam się bawić, biegać i szaleć, a wszystko dookoła bardzo mnie interesuje. Dogaduję się z innymi kotami, chociaż czasem mam wrażenie, że nie do końca rozumiem, co właściwie próbują mi powiedzieć. Kociej etykiety jeszcze się uczę!Korzystam z kuwety i coraz lepiej odnajduję się w schroniskowej codzienności. Zostałem już zaszczepiony, odrobaczony i zaczipowany. W przyszłości mój opiekun powinien zgłosić się ze mną do schroniska na bezpłatny zabieg kastracji.Szukam domu, który da mi trochę czasu na nabranie zaufania i pozwoli mi być sobą – ciekawskim, energicznym kocurkiem, który dopiero poznaje ludzi i świat. Jeśli lubisz koty z charakterem, może właśnie ja skradnę Ci serce?

About Tako

What life with Tako looks like

Tako is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Zabrze in Zabrze.

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 Tako, answered.

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