Balbusia

Female · Senior · 11 years

Delicate Balbusia is not coping with living in the animal shelter. This 11-year-old kitten is strongly experiencing the new, unfamiliar place she has found herself in. Stress has affected Balbusi's immunity and the kitten has caught a cat cold. A stuffed nose is effectively taking away her appetite. Balbusia doesn't have the strength to wait any longer for a home! We are very requesting the adoption of delicate Balbusi. A cat cold with individual care and calm, home conditions should quickly subside, and Balbusia will feel much better in safe, loving conditions. Please come to review the pre-adoption questionnaire and come to the animal shelter with the completed questionnaire: Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Warning: If you decide to adopt a cat or are considering it, be sure to bring a carrier or transport bag to the animal shelter for transporting cats.

Delikatna Balbusia nie radzi sobie z pobytem w schronisku. Ta 11-letnia koteczka mocno przeżywa nowe, obce miejsce w którym się znalazła. Stres wpłynął na odporność Balbusi i koteczka zachorowała na koci katar. Zapchany nosek skutecznie odbiera jej apetyt. Balbusia nie ma siły, by dłużej czekać na dom! Bardzo prosimy o adopcję delikatnej Balbusi. Koci katar przy indywidualnej opiece i spokojnych, domowych warunkach, szybko powinien ustać, a Balbusia w bezpiecznych, kochających warunkach poczuje się zdecydowanie lepiej. Zapraszamy do zapoznania się z ankietą przedadopcyjną i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów.

About Balbusia

What life with Balbusia looks like

Balbusia is a small senior cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

Note from the shelter: Upper respiratory infection (cat flu), stressed from shelter environment, requires quiet home and individual care

🇵🇱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 Balbusia, answered.

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