Kicia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Kicia is a cat who has learned to be cautious throughout her life. She is very mistrustful and withdrawn - she seems like a semi-feral cat who avoids close contact with humans and keeps a safe distance. Her behavior does not stem from aggression, but from deep-rooted fear and uncertainty. This is a cat who had to cope alone for a long time - and still does not know that humans can be allies, and a home can mean safety. But Kicia has something fragile in her that makes you want to give her a chance. Because with the right dose of patience, gentleness and calm companionship - Kicia can slowly start to open up. It won't suddenly become a cuddly cat, but she has the potential to trust in her own time - one day to come out of her hiding place, sit closer, look calmly and maybe... notice a friend in you. For this cat, we are looking for a quiet, stable home with a caregiver who will not impose anything on her. Someone who can give the cat space and time, without expecting anything right away. Someone who knows that true trust in a shy cat is a gift - and every small step forward is a great victory. If you have an open heart for cat souls that need more than just a bowl of food - Kicia is waiting for you. Give her a chance for a peaceful, safe life. It doesn't have to be spectacular - just that it's real. FIV/FeLV tests:

Kicia to kotka, która przez życie nauczyła się być ostrożna. Jest bardzo nieufna i wycofana – sprawia wrażenie półdzikiej kocicy, która unika bliskiego kontaktu z człowiekiem i trzyma się na bezpieczny dystans. Jej zachowanie nie wynika z agresji, lecz z głęboko zakorzenionego lęku i niepewności. To kotka, która przez dłuższy czas musiała radzić sobie sama – i wciąż jeszcze nie wie, że człowiek może być sojusznikiem, a dom może oznaczać bezpieczeństwo. Ale Kicia ma w sobie coś kruchego, co sprawia, że chce się dać jej szansę. Bo z odpowiednią dawką cierpliwości, łagodności i spokojnego towarzystwa – Kicia może powoli zacząć się otwierać. Nie stanie się nagle przytulakiem, ale ma potencjał, by w swoim tempie zaufać – by któregoś dnia wyjść ze swojej kryjówki, przysiąść bliżej, spojrzeć spokojnie i może… zauważyć w Tobie przyjaciela. Dla Kici szukamy domu cichego, stabilnego, z opiekunem, który nie będzie jej niczego narzucał. Kogoś, kto potrafi dać kotu przestrzeń i czas, nie oczekując niczego na już. Kogoś, kto wie, że prawdziwe zaufanie u nieśmiałego kota to dar – a każdy mały krok naprzód to ogromne zwycięstwo. Jeśli masz serce otwarte na kocie dusze, które potrzebują więcej niż tylko miski karmy – Kicia czeka właśnie na Ciebie. Podaruj jej szansę na spokojne, bezpieczne życie. Nie musi być spektakularne – wystarczy, że będzie prawdziwe..Testy FIV/ FeLV: ujemne

About Kicia

What life with Kicia looks like

Kicia is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Tomaszów Mazowiecki in Poland.

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 Kicia, answered.

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