Pokrzywa

Female · Young · 3 years

Pokrzywa can be met at our "Adopt a Cat" point at Grójeckiej 79 in Warsaw. She can be adopted with Rumianek, but it is not a necessary condition. Here is Pokrzywa, a delicate little kitten who needs a moment to show her true face. She arrived at the animal shelter with her cat family, but she is already ready to start a new chapter and find her own peaceful home. Her kittens have already found their homes. At our point, she only needed one day to come out of her shell and show her sweet face. This is a kitten who is thirsty for human contact. We are sure that in a loving home, she will be a wonderful feline companion. We encourage adopting Pokrzywa together with her feline friend Rumianek, who will surely be a great support for her. However, adoption as a pair is not a necessary condition. The adoption process at the "Adopt a Cat" point takes two days. We invite you to fill out the pre-adoption questionnaire and come to our feline point with your completed questionnaire: Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member.

About Pokrzywa

What life with Pokrzywa looks like

Pokrzywa 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 Pokrzywa, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pokrzywa?
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 Pokrzywa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pokrzywa 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 Pokrzywa 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 Pokrzywa 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 Pokrzywa 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.
