How do I contact the shelter about Havana?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Puszatek handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Havana on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Havana if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Puszatek 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 Havana 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 Havana 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 Puszatek early rather than rehoming privately; they know Havana 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.

Havana

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Havana arrived at the shelter in August 2025. She was found in Gdynia near the Science and Technology Park. Havana is a cat of exceptional beauty. This beautiful tortoiseshell immediately attracts every glance. She has magnetic golden eyes and charming brown spots on her nose. The cat was withdrawn and distrustful from the beginning. She is not the type of "cuddler". She is a feline lady who knows exactly what she wants, what she doesn't want, and can communicate it clearly. She is one of those cats that require patient and consistent socialization. Havana needs a caregiver who can read cat signals and respect her boundaries. We are looking for a home for the kitten that is aware and patient, which will not immediately expect friendship from her. And above all experienced in working with cats with strong character. Havana needs someone to show her that the world is not bad and give her her own corner where she can finally feel safe. We believe that in a loving home Havana will open up and show what a wonderful feline friend she is. You just need to devote time and show your heart. Every progress in working with such a kitten gives a lot of satisfaction. Come, love, adopt! NAME: Havana (291/25) SEX: Female AGE: About 3 years SPAY / NEUTER: Yes VACCINATION / DEWORMING / FLEA TREATMENT: Yes / Yes / Yes HEALTH: No noticeable health problems. CHARACTER: The cat is distrustful, values her space. FOR WHO: For a person with experience in working with a withdrawn and distrustful cat.

About Havana

What life with Havana looks like

Havana is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

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.
