Kaja

Mixed Breed · Female

Temperament: Shy little one. Kaja came to the animal shelter as a less than six-month-old kitten. Her small body is covered with black fur with a white accent on the front of the chest. By nature, she is very reserved, preferring to spend her time hidden in her favorite box. She does not show aggression towards people and cats, but also does not interact with them. Recently, she has made great progress in her socialization - she spends more and more time with other cats and becomes braver around people, even leaning in for pets. Kaja needs a calm and patient owner who will gradually gain her trust. To people she trusts, she allows petting, which she reciprocates with purring. It is recommended to gently try to persuade Kaji to play together (she likes wands), which will significantly strengthen the bond with her human friend.

Usposobienie: Nieśmiała drobinka. Kaja trafiła do schroniska jako niespełna półroczny kociak. Jej drobne ciałko porasta czarna sierść z białym akcentem z przodu klatki piersiowej. Z charakteru jest bardzo wycofana, najchętniej spędza czas schroniona w ulubionej skrzyneczce. Nie wykazuje agresji wobec ludzi i kotów, jednakże też nie wchodzi z nimi w interakcję. Ostatnim czasem poczyniła olbrzymie postępy w swojej socjalizacji – coraz częściej spędza czas z innymi kotami oraz staje się odważniejsza wobec ludzi, nawet nadstawiając się na pieszczoty. Kaja potrzebuje spokojnego i wyrozumiałego właściciela, który stopniowo będzie zdobywać jej zaufanie. Ludziom, którym ufa, pozwala na pieszczoty, za które odwdzięcza się mruczeniem. Zaleca się łagodne próby namówienia Kaji do wspólnej zabawy (lubi wędki), co w znacznym stopniu umocni więź ze swoim ludzkim przyjacielem.

About Kaja

What life with Kaja looks like

Kaja is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Kaja, answered.

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