Kurkuma

Female · Young · 1 year

Curcuma is an extremely friendly, sweet and playful cat who quickly wins over human hearts. She is full of energy, curious about the world and very agile. She can quickly run after her favorite toy, and playing with her is a real pleasure. Curcuma loves humans, their presence and affection. If you are looking for a cheerful, loving and full of life feline friend, Curcuma may be just for you. Before adoption, we suggest you read the pre-adoption questionnaire and come to the shelter with the completed questionnaire: Note: When deciding on the adoption of a cat or considering it, be sure to take a transporter or a transport bag for cats with you to the shelter. Before adoption, make sure your home / apartment is safe and properly prepared to receive a new family member. Remember to secure windows and balcony. If you have a resident cat, bring the results of FIV and FeLV tests with you.

About Kurkuma

What life with Kurkuma looks like

Kurkuma is a small young adult cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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 Kurkuma, answered.

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