Bójka

Female · Young · 2 years

Meet Bójka—a gentle and extremely cautious cat who needs time, peace, and a patient caregiver. In her daily life, she tends to keep her distance from people and feels most comfortable when she can observe the world from a safe vantage point. She’s not the type of cat who’ll immediately jump onto your lap, but with the right approach, she has the potential to slowly open up to humans. Bójka is neutral toward other cats—she doesn’t seek out conflicts and can coexist peacefully alongside feline companions. Due to her timid nature, she’d thrive best in a quiet, calm home free of excessive hustle and bustle. We’re looking for a caregiver who will respect her boundaries and give her all the time she needs to feel safe and secure. Sometimes, the greatest success is simply being there for her—exactly the kind of calm, understanding home that Bójka is waiting for.

Poznaj Bójkę – delikatną i bardzo ostrożną kotkę, która potrzebuje czasu, spokoju i cierpliwego opiekuna. Na co dzień stroni od ludzi i najlepiej czuje się wtedy, gdy może obserwować świat z bezpiecznej odległości. To nie jest kotka, która od razu wskoczy na kolana, ale przy odpowiednim podejściu ma szansę powoli otworzyć się na człowieka. Bójka jest neutralna w stosunku do innych kotów – nie szuka konfliktów i potrafi spokojnie funkcjonować obok kocich towarzyszy. Ze względu na swoją bojaźliwą naturę najlepiej odnajdzie się w cichym, spokojnym domu bez dużego ruchu i hałasu. Szukamy dla niej opiekuna, który uszanuje jej granice i da jej tyle czasu, ile będzie potrzebowała, by poczuć się bezpiecznie. Czasem największym sukcesem jest po prostu obecność obok człowieka – i właśnie na taki spokojny, pełen wyrozumiałości dom czeka Bójka.

About Bójka

What life with Bójka looks like

Bójka is a small young adult cat waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Bójka, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bójka?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bójka on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bójka if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu 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 Bójka 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 Bójka 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 dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bójka 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.
