How do I contact the shelter about Lumi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Malá farma handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lumi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lumi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Malá farma 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 Lumi 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 Lumi 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 Malá farma early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lumi 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 (SK). 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.

Lumi

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Lumi's story didn't start well. He experienced pain, fear, and days of fighting alone on Luník IX in Košice. He was found battered, bruised, limping, and terrified. The cat who knew suffering rather than safety on his own body. When he came to us from hospitalization, he carried not only injuries on his body but also those that are invisible. He needed time, treatment, security, and care. Time to understand that he no longer needs to be afraid. That a human hand doesn't have to hurt, that a foot can kick more, but it can also rub around him with confidence. And today we want to introduce you to a completely different Lumi. A big feline trickster who enjoys scratching posts, comfort, games, attention, and shows his cheerful side more and more every day. The cat who discovered the joy of life and slowly became a content partner ready to make a future family company. Lumi is no longer just a story of rescue. It's hope that even very wounded souls can believe again and love. We are looking for a family for Lumi, which will not know his past as something that defines him, but as proof of how huge and difficult the journey he has gone through. Because Lumi has already lived his suffering. And now he is ready to do what he does better - be a happy feline trickster and bring joy to his family. We adopt Lumi exclusively for indoor living as part of the family for many years. Lumi can also be supported financially, for veterinary procedures and food.

Príbeh nádherného kocúrika Lumiho nezačal pekne ! Lumi zažil bolesť, strach a dni, kedy musel ubolený bojovať sám na Luníku IX v Košiciach. Našiel sa dokopaný, ubolený, krívajúci a vystrašený. Kocúrik, ktorý na vlastnom tele poznal skôr utrpenie než bezpečie. Keď k nám z hospitalizácie prišiel, niesol si so sebou nielen zranenia na tele, ale aj tie, ktoré nevidno. Potreboval čas, liečbu, istotu a starostlivosť. Čas pochopiť, že už sa nemusí báť. Že ľudská ruka nemusí ubližovať, že noha viac nakopne, ale môže sa okolo nej s dôverou obtrieť. A dnes vám chceme predstaviť úplne iného Lumiho. Veľkého mačacieho šibala, ktorý si užíva škrabadlá, pohodlie, hry, pozornosť a každým dňom viac ukazuje svoju veselú stránku. Kocúrika, ktorý objavil radosť zo života a pomaly sa z neho stal spokojný parťák pripravený robiť budúcej rodinke spoločnosť. Lumi už nie je len príbehom záchrany. Je nádejou, že aj veľmi zranené dušičky dokážu znovu veriť a milovať. Pre Lumiho hľadáme rodinku, ktorá nebude poznať jeho minulosť ako niečo, čo ho definuje, ale ako dôkaz toho, aký obrovský a náročný kus cesty prešiel. Lebo Lumi si už svoje trápenie odžil. A teraz je pripravený robiť to, čo mu ide čoraz lepšie – byť šťastným mačacím šibalom a prinášať radosť svojej rodinke. Lumiho adoptujeme výlučne do interiéru ako člena rodinky na dlhé roky. Lumiho je možné podporiť aj finančne, na veterinárne úkony a stravu. SNP 21, 811 01 Bratislava FIO CZ: 2201868518/2010 SWIFT/.s., V Celnici 1028/10, 117 21 Praha 1

About Lumi

What life with Lumi looks like

Lumi is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Malá farma in Slovakia.

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 Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
