Barney

Mixed Breed · Male

🐾💙 Barney is looking for his human 💙🐾 Barney came to our foundation thanks to a wonderful man who helps stray cats in his area near Zgierz - he traps them, castrates them and makes sure their lives are better 🐱💛 When it was Barney's turn, it was clear that it wouldn't just be a quick castration... Barney arrived at our shelter in very poor condition 😿 - with severe cat flu, breathing problems and serious changes in his mouth. He was supposed to return to the wild, but it quickly became clear that he was a tame, gentle and very hungry cat 🥹💞 At the sight of a bowl, he would rush to the food 🍽️, as if he hadn't eaten for days, and warmth, peace and a full belly were his greatest happiness. Today, Barney is: ✅ castrated ✅ treated for cat flu ✅ had a full, expensive dental procedure 🦷🩺 And we know one thing for sure - he will never go back to the street 🏡✨ 💙 What is Barney like? He is a calm, non-confrontational kitten who loves human company 🐾 He lives in a cattery with other young cats, but he doesn't get in anyone's way - he prefers to observe the world from his favorite shelves 😴🐱 There he relaxes his fur, away from the more energetic young cats. 📌 Barney is: ✔️ healthy ✔️ friendly ✔️ castrated ✔️ vaccinated ✔️ chipped ✔️ ready for his new, loving home 🏠💙 🙏 Before he sets off to his new life, we ask for your help in closing his collection, which unfortunately did not attract much interest, and the costs of treatment - especially dentistry - were huge 💰 This procedure was necessary so that Barney wouldn't suffer and could enjoy every new day without pain ☀️🐱 👉 pl/barney-fpk If you can't adopt - please help by sharing or donating 💕 Barney has already won the fight for his health... now it's time for a home and a peaceful future 🐾💙 Barney is currently in our foundation in Słowik - Łódź Voivodeship. If you are interested in adoption, please fill out the pre-adoption questionnaire: pl/ankieta-przedadopcyjna/ Want to become a virtual guardian? 💻, write to: wirtualki. pl ✉️ Enter Barney's name, and every month 📆 you can support him with an amount of 30 zł (there is no upper limit 😻💞). And if you can't adopt - share. Maybe thanks to you, someone will notice Barney and decide to give him a chance at a home!

🐾💙 Barney szuka swojego człowieka 💙🐾 Barney trafił do naszej Fundacji dzięki wspaniałemu panu, który na własną rękę pomaga kotom wolnożyjącym w swojej okolicy pod Zgierzem – odławia je, kastruje i dba, by ich los był lepszy 🐱💛 Gdy przyszła kolej na Barneya, od razu było jasne, że to nie będzie tylko szybka kastracja… Barney przyjechał do nas w bardzo złym stanie 😿 – z silnym katarem kocim, problemami z oddychaniem i poważnymi zmianami w jamie ustnej. Miał wrócić na wolność, ale szybko okazało się, że to kot oswojony, łagodny i bardzo spragniony człowieka 🥹💞 Na widok miski rzucał się na jedzenie 🍽️, jakby nie jadł od wielu dni, a ciepło, spokój i pełny brzuszek były dla niego największym szczęściem. Dziś Barney jest już: ✅ po kastracji ✅ po leczeniu kataru kociego ✅ po pełnym, kosztownym zabiegu stomatologicznym 🦷🩺 I wiemy jedno na pewno – on już nigdy nie wróci na ulicę 🏡✨ 💙 Jaki jest Barney? To spokojny, niekonfliktowy kocurek, który bardzo lubi obecność człowieka 🐾 Mieszka w mruczarni z innymi młodymi kotami, ale nie wchodzi nikomu w drogę – woli obserwować świat z ulubionych półeczek 😴🐱 Tam relaksuje swoje futerko, z dala od bardziej energicznych kocich podrostków. 📌 Barney jest: ✔️ zdrowy ✔️ proludzki ✔️ wykastrowany ✔️ zaszczepiony ✔️ zaczipowany ✔️ gotowy na swój nowy, kochający domek 🏠💙 🙏 Zanim jednak wyruszy do nowego życia, bardzo prosimy o pomoc w domknięciu jego zbiórki, która niestety nie wzbudziła dużego zainteresowania, a koszty leczenia – zwłaszcza stomatologii – były ogromne 💰 Ten zabieg był konieczny, by Barney nie cierpiał i mógł cieszyć się każdym nowym dniem bez bólu ☀️🐱 👉 pl/barney-fpk Jeśli nie możesz adoptować – pomóż proszę udostępnieniem lub wpłatą 💕 Barney już wygrał walkę o zdrowie… teraz czas na dom i spokojną przyszłość 🐾💙 Barney przebywa obecnie w naszej fundacji w Słowiku - województwo Łódzkie. Osoby zainteresowane adopcją zapraszamy do wypełnienia ankiety przedadopcyjnej: pl/ankieta-przedadopcyjna/ Chcesz zostać opiekunem wirtualnym? 💻, napisz na: wirtualki. pl ✉️ Podaj imię Barney, a co miesiąc 📆 możesz wspierać go kwotą od 30 zł (górnej granicy nie ma 😻💞). A jeśli nie możesz adoptować — udostępnij. Może właśnie dzięki Tobie ktoś zauważy Barneya i postanowi dać mu szansę na dom!

About Barney

What life with Barney looks like

Barney is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at PrzytulKota in Poland.

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. Adopters usually cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Barney, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Barney?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. PrzytulKota handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Barney on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Barney if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — PrzytulKota 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Barney 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 Barney 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 PrzytulKota early rather than rehoming privately; they know Barney 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.
