How do I contact the shelter about Arnika?

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 Arnika on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Arnika 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 Arnika 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 Arnika 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 Arnika 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.

Arnika

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Hello, I'm Arnika! I arrived at the shelter on August 18, 2026 from ROD Gwarek. I was the first of three sisters who were rescued - a few days later Lobelia and Nerina joined me. I was born probably in the first half of June 2026. Of the three of us, I am the most courageous and curious. I am still a bit afraid of people and need time to trust them, but I am increasingly hanging around the caregivers and observing what they do with interest. Curiosity is slowly winning over fear!I love to play, run and romp with my sisters. After all the cat antics, I would most like to fall asleep curled up in their soft fur. I feel very good in the company of other cats, so the presence of a feline friend in a new home would certainly help me open up faster.I use the litter box. I have already been vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. In the future, I will also undergo a sterilization procedure at the shelter's expense.I am looking for a quiet and patient home that will give me some time and allow me to convince myself that a person can be a really good friend.

Cześć, jestem Arnika! Do schroniska trafiłam 18 sierpnia 2026 roku z ROD Gwarek. Byłam pierwszą z trzech sióstr, które udało się zabezpieczyć – kilka dni później dołączyły do mnie Lobelia i Nerina. Urodziłam się prawdopodobnie w pierwszej połowie czerwca 2026 roku.Z całej naszej trójki jestem najodważniejsza i najbardziej ciekawska. Nadal trochę boję się ludzi i potrzebuję czasu, żeby im zaufać, ale coraz częściej kręcę się w pobliżu opiekunów i z zainteresowaniem obserwuję, co robią. Ciekawość powoli zaczyna wygrywać ze strachem!Uwielbiam się bawić, biegać i szaleć z moimi siostrami. Po wszystkich kocich harcach najchętniej zasypiam wtulona w ich miękkie futerka. Bardzo dobrze czuję się w towarzystwie innych kotów, dlatego obecność kociego przyjaciela w nowym domu z pewnością pomogłaby mi szybciej się otworzyć.Korzystam z kuwety. Zostałam już zaszczepiona, odrobaczona i zaczipowana. W przyszłości czeka mnie również zabieg sterylizacji na koszt schroniska.Szukam spokojnego i cierpliwego domu, który da mi trochę czasu i pozwoli przekonać się, że człowiek może być naprawdę fajnym przyjacielem.

About Arnika

What life with Arnika looks like

Arnika 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.
