How do I contact the shelter about Iris?

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

Can I adopt Iris if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Malá farma 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 Iris 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 Iris 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 Malá farma early rather than rehoming privately; they know Iris 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 (SK). 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.

Iris

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Iris is a black kitten who was found on the street with a severely injured eye. No one knows what happened to her or how long she suffered without help. It's certain that when she arrived at the veterinary clinic, it was too late. Her eye couldn't be saved and had to be surgically removed. However, Iris has now fully recovered from this ordeal. She has learned to live with this disability and functions just like other cats. She runs, plays, explores the world, and enjoys life to the fullest. Iris is a gentle, sweet, and affectionate kitten who loves human company. Despite her difficult start in life, she hasn't lost trust or her desire to give love. We are looking for an indoor home where Iris will be safe. Her life has already taken too much from her once, and we don't want her to face the dangers of the street again! She deserves a warm bed, a full bowl, loving hands, and a family that will love her just as she is. Her disability doesn't limit her in any way. She doesn't need pity; she needs someone who sees what matters most - her big heart. We believe there is a home somewhere where Iris won't be just the eyeless kitten but simply a beloved family member. After everything she has been through, she deserves only a happy life. If you fell in love with Iris, maybe you are her dream family. Iris can also be supported financially for veterinary procedures and food.

Nie každá mačička dostane do života šťastný začiatok. Iris patrí medzi tie, ktoré si museli prejsť bolesťou skôr, než spoznali, čo znamená bezpečie. Čierna mačička sa našla na ulici s vážne poraneným očkom. Nikto nevie, čo sa jej stalo ani ako dlho trpela bez pomoci. Isté je len to, že keď sa dostala na veterinárnu kliniku, bolo už neskoro ! Jej očko sa, žiaľ, zachrániť nedalo a jedinou možnosťou bolo jeho operačné odstránenie. Dnes je však všetko najhoršie za ňou. Iriska celú starostlivosť ukážkovo zvládla a krásne sa zotavila. O svoje očko sa už netrápi, naučila sa s týmto handicapom žiť a funguje úplne rovnako ako ostatné mačky. Behá, hrá sa, objavuje svet a zo života sa teší plnými dúškami. Iriska je nežná, milá a mojkavá mačička, ktorá si veľmi užíva spoločnosť človeka. Napriek tomu, že ju život na začiatku vôbec nešetril, nestratila dôveru ani chuť rozdávať lásku. Pre Iris hľadáme výlučne interiérový domov, kde bude v bezpečí. Život vonku jej už raz vzal príliš veľa a nechceme, aby musela opäť čeliť nástrahám ulice ! Zaslúži si teplý peliešok, plnú misku, láskavé ruky a rodinu, ktorá ju bude milovať takú, aká je. Jej handicap ju nijako neobmedzuje. Nepotrebuje ľútosť, potrebuje len človeka, ktorý uvidí to najdôležitejšie a ním je veľké srdce. Veríme, že niekde existuje domov, kde nebude Iris len tou mačičkou bez očka, ale jednoducho milovanou členkou rodiny. Po všetkom, čím si prešla, si zaslúži už len šťastný život. Ak vám Iris padla do oka, možno práve vy ste jej vysnívanou rodinkou. Iris je možné podporiť aj finančne, na veterinárne úkony a stravu.

About Iris

What life with Iris looks like

Iris is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Malá farma in Slovakia.

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 Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
