Gaja

Female · Adult · 6 years

Gaja is a rescued kitten from a farm, looking for a home with other purring companions and a patient caregiver. She is naturally shy, but also has her charming side! 🐾 She loves to wander around your feet, rub against you, and beg for attention. 👑 She values her independence – petting is only on her terms, and she avoids being carried like the plague. 👁️ She has slightly worse vision in one eye (a result of a past feline cold, but the eye is stable and healthy).

PL·Show original

Gaja to uratowana z działek kotka, która szuka domu z innymi mruczkami i cierpliwym opiekunem. Jest z natury płochliwa, ale ma też swoją uroczą stronę! 🐾 Lubi kręcić się pod nogami, ocierać i dopraszać o uwagę. 👑 Ceni niezależność – głaskanie tylko na jej zasadach, a noszenia na rękach unika jak ognia. 👁️ Na jedno oko widzi słabiej (ślad po dawnym kocim katarze, oko jest stabilne i zdrowe).

About Gaja

What life with Gaja looks like

Gaja is a adult cat waiting at Fundacja Dla Zwierząt Animalia Poznań in Poznań.

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 Gaja, answered.

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