BURKA

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 3 months

Meet Burka - a little feline explorer who bravely and curiously embarks on each new day. Burka arrived at the shelter with her sister Pianka. Although both are still kittens, they differ in character. Burka is bolder and adapts faster to new situations. With curiosity, she approaches the world around her, eagerly meets people and enthusiastically participates in all feline games. She's a cheerful, energetic and charming kitten who loves chases, climbs and discovering new nooks. As befits a kitten, she is everywhere, and treats each day as another great adventure. At the same time, she is delicate and enjoys human closeness whenever she feels safe. Burka uses her litter box very well. In the first days after moving, there may be minor accidents related to stress and change of environment, which is completely natural in young kittens and usually passes quickly.

Poznaj Burkę -małą kocią odkrywczynię, która z odwagą i ciekawością wkracza w każdy nowy dzień. Burka trafiła do schroniska razem ze swoją siostrą Pianką. Choć obie są jeszcze kocimi dziećmi, różnią się charakterem. Burka jest odważniejsza i szybciej odnajduje się w nowych sytuacjach. Z ciekawością podchodzi do otaczającego ją świata, chętnie poznaje ludzi i z entuzjazmem bierze udział we wszystkich kocich zabawach. To wesoła, energiczna i pełna uroku koteczka, która uwielbia gonitwy, wspinaczki i odkrywanie nowych zakamarków. Jak przystało na kociaka, wszędzie jest jej pełno, a każdy dzień traktuje jak kolejną wielką przygodę. Jednocześnie jest delikatna i chętnie korzysta z bliskości człowieka, gdy tylko poczuje się bezpiecznie. Burka bardzo ładnie korzysta z kuwety. W pierwszych dniach po przeprowadzce mogą zdarzyć się drobne wpadki związane ze stresem i zmianą otoczenia, co jest zupełnie naturalne u młodych kociąt i zazwyczaj szybko mija.

About BURKA

What life with BURKA looks like

BURKA is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Świdnica in Poland.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇵🇱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 BURKA, answered.

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