The Pozor Kočka! organization is based around a network of volunteers, some of whom are based in Prague neighborhoods such as Vršovice, Hostivař, or Klecany, as well as the town of Český Brod. Their website has several separate sections, for kittens (up to one year of age), adult cats and tomcats, cats who are in quarantine, and cats that live permanently in their shelters. Some of their staff speak English.
Destiny Pet has an English-friendly website, and their philosophy is to put high demands on new owners “because the new home must be better than the temporary one,” and also provide lifelong counselling services once the adoption is complete. The cats that are up for adoption are spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, vaccinated, and tested for common diseases.
Cool Critters is based in a countryside farmhouse north of Prague, and run by founder Jaq, who is British, and a group of dedicated friends/volunteers of different nationalities. If you’re interested in giving a home to their cats, fill out an adoption application form (which is in English).
With an English-friendly section of their website, Catky.cz also screens potential cat parents through an initial questionnaire (whose answers can be in English) to ensure the best possible match, as some cats might have trouble adapting to families with small children or living in small apartments.
The Prague Police runs Útulek Troja, a large animal shelter that has cats for adoption. Adoption of an animal can take place on two levels, either temporary care (for animals that have been in the shelter for less than four months, in case their original owner claims them) or permanent care (for animals that have been in the shelter for more than four months). You need a permanent residency permit to be eligible; while some staff speak English, a basic level of Czech is required for the adoption formalities.
You can find more information on the English-version website of the State Veterinary Administration, which contains the full list of registered shelters in the Czech Republic.
