Iskra

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 1 month

Iskra is looking for a forever home ✨ Some cats are lucky from the start. Iskra had to fight for her own. She was found as a tiny kitten and bottle-fed by a kind soul. Later, she was taken care of by the Ja Paczę Sercem Foundation due to feline flu and eye problems. The disease was merciless - one eye had to be removed, and the other has limited vision. And you know what? For Iskra, it's not a problem. This almost one-year-old cat adapts perfectly to home life. She runs, plays with toys, jumps on the bed, sleeps next to her human, and takes life to the fullest. She doesn't dwell on her past and doesn't expect pity. She just needs someone who sees her as a wonderful cat, not her missing eye. Iskra is about 10 months old. She is brave, curious, and full of charm. She treats new people with distance for a short time, then considers them family. She decides when to come for pets, but when she wants them, she can do real flips with joy. She doesn't like being carried, but loves sleeping in bed with her human. This is a cat that rarely meows, but can purr really loud. In her free time, she hunts for noisy wands, rustling toys, and rabbit ears. She loves cardboard and cardboard scratchers. She also has a rather unusual hobby - she likes to splash around in water. Iskra uses the litter box flawlessly and rarely scratches something she shouldn't. She most enjoys BARF, but she also likes good quality wet and dry food. She gets along well with other cats. She especially likes her adopted brother, with whom she sleeps and plays games around the house. She is not pushy towards other cats and respects their space. She can live as a single, or join a feline company. Due to her brave character, there is a good chance she would accept a calm dog. She had contact with an energetic six-year-old and played great with him, running after him around the house. We are looking for a responsible, non-outdoor home with secured windows and/or a netted balcony. A home that understands that a cat with visual impairment can be just as happy, active, and full of life as any other. Iskra is vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and has negative FIV and FeLV tests. She is currently in Wroclaw under the care of the Ja Paczę Sercem Foundation, but she can also move to another city, or even abroad - distance doesn't matter for the right home. Maybe you will show Iskra that after a difficult start, she will have a good life ahead?

Iskra szuka domu na zawsze ✨ Niektóre koty od początku mają szczęście. Iskra musiała o swoje zawalczyć. Została znaleziona jako maleńki kociak i wykarmiona butelką przez dobrą duszę. Później trafiła pod opiekę Fundacji Ja Paczę Sercem z powodu kociego kataru i problemów z oczami. Choroba okazała się bezlitosna – jedno oczko trzeba było usunąć, a na drugie Iskra widzi tylko w ograniczonym zakresie. I wiecie co? Dla Iskry to nie jest problem. Ta niespełna roczna kotka doskonale odnajduje się w domu. Biega, poluje na zabawki, wskakuje na łóżko, śpi przy człowieku i czerpie z życia pełnymi łapkami. Nie rozpamiętuje swojej przeszłości i nie oczekuje litości. Potrzebuje jedynie człowieka, który zobaczy w niej cudowną kotkę, a nie jej brakujące oczko. Iskra ma około 10 miesięcy. Jest odważna, ciekawska i pełna uroku. Nowych ludzi traktuje z dystansem tylko przez krótką chwilę, po czym uznaje ich za domowników. Sama decyduje, kiedy przychodzi po głaski, ale kiedy już ma na nie ochotę, potrafi robić z radości prawdziwe fikołki. Nie przepada za noszeniem na rękach, za to uwielbia spać w łóżku z człowiekiem. To kotka, która rzadko miauczy, ale za to potrafi mruczeć naprawdę głośno. W wolnym czasie poluje na hałasujące wędki, szeleszczące zabawki i uszy królika. Uwielbia kartony oraz kartonowe drapaki. Ma też dość nietypowe hobby – lubi ciapać się w wodzie. Iskra bezbłędnie korzysta z kuwety i bardzo rzadko zdarza jej się drapać coś, czego nie powinna. Najbardziej smakuje jej BARF, ale chętnie zjada również dobrej jakości mokrą i suchą karmę. Dobrze dogaduje się z innymi kotami. Szczególnie lubi swojego przyszywanego kociego brata, z którym śpi i urządza gonitwy po domu. Nie jest nachalna wobec innych kotów i szanuje ich przestrzeń. Może zamieszkać jako jedynaczka, może także dołączyć do kociego towarzystwa. Ze względu na swój odważny charakter istnieje duża szansa, że zaakceptowałaby również spokojnego psa. Miała kontakt z energicznym sześciolatkiem i świetnie się z nim bawiła, biegając za nim po domu. Szukamy dla niej odpowiedzialnego, niewychodzącego domu z zabezpieczonymi oknami i/lub zasiatkowanym balkonem. Domu, który zrozumie, że kot z niepełnosprawnością wzroku może być tak samo szczęśliwy, aktywny i pełen życia jak każdy inny. Iskra jest zaszczepiona, odrobaczona, wysterylizowana oraz ma ujemne testy FIV i FeLV. Obecnie przebywa we Wrocławiu pod opieką Fundacji Ja Paczę Sercem, ale może zamieszkać także w innym mieście, a nawet za granicą – dla właściwego domu odległość nie ma znaczenia. Może właśnie Ty pokażesz Iskrze, że po trudnym początku czeka ją już tylko dobre życie? 500 383 928

About Iskra

What life with Iskra looks like

Iskra is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

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 Iskra, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Iskra?
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 Iskra on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Iskra 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 Iskra 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 Iskra 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 Iskra 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.
