Iskierka

Female · Kitten · 8 months

Iskierka is a little kitten who arrived with a baggage of experiences. She was riding under a car until someone finally saw her and rescued her, after this awful experience Iskierka has burned-in vibrations. The girl is very homesick and calls for her kitten mom, therefore we are looking for her an experienced home with a stable cat resident. She is still a kitten and her body is very delicate and particularly vulnerable to bacteria and viruses. Because of this, she should leave the animal shelter as soon as possible. We are looking for caring and responsible guardians. Due to her very young age and longing for her mother, it would be best if she ended up in a home where there is already a cat resident. This way she will have the opportunity to learn feline communication and develop properly. Adopting such a stray requires dedication and knowledge, therefore, in case of lack of experience with kittens, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the post-adoption cat guide, which contains the most important information on raising a kitten. Thanks to it, the caregiver will be able to better prepare for welcoming the kitten into the home. Guide: Before adoption, we suggest familiarizing yourself with the pre-adoption questionnaire and coming to the animal shelter with the completed application form: Note: When deciding to adopt a cat or considering it, be sure to bring a cat transporter or a transport bag to the animal shelter. Before adoption, make sure your home / apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Remember to secure the windows and balcony.

Iskierka to malutka koteczka, która przyjechała z bagażem doświadczeń. Jeździła pod maską samochodu do momentu, aż ktoś w końcu ją zobaczył i uratował, po tym przykrym doświadczeniu Iskierka ma przypalone wibrysy. Dziewczyna bardzo tęskni i nawołuje kocią mamę, dlatego szukamy dla niej doświadczonego domu ze stabilnym kocim rezydentem. To jeszcze kocie dziecko a jej organizm jest bardzo delikatny i szczególnie narażony na bakterie i wirusy. Z tego powodu powinien jak najszybciej opuścić schronisko. Szukamy dla niej troskliwych i odpowiedzialnych opiekunów. Ze względu na bardzo młody wiek i tęsknotę za mamą najlepiej, aby trafiła do domu, w którym mieszka już koci rezydent. Dzięki temu będzie miała okazję nauczyć się kociej komunikacji i prawidłowo się rozwijać. Adopcja takich szkrabów wymaga poświęcenia i wiedzy, dlatego w przypadku braku doświadczenia z maluchami zachęcamy do zapoznania się z kocim poradnikiem po adopcji, w którym znajdują się najważniejsze informacje o wychowaniu kociaka. Dzięki niemu opiekun będzie mógł lepiej przygotować się do powitania w domu malucha. Poradnik: Przed adopcją sugerujemy zapoznanie się z kwestionariuszem przedadopcyjnym i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów. Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Pamiętaj, żeby zabezpieczyć okna i balkon.

About Iskierka

What life with Iskierka looks like

Iskierka is a small puppy/kitten cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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.

Note from the shelter: Very young kitten with singed whiskers from traumatic car engine experience, needs urgent shelter exit due to vulnerable immune system

🇵🇱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 Iskierka, answered.

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