Adopt Malina

Unknown · Young · 3 years

Malina is a young cat, about 2-3 years old (01.2026). She is FIV/FeLV negative, vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and... toothless. She lost her teeth due to periodontal disease and an autoimmune reaction. If this cat hadn't crossed our path, she would have faced starvation, perhaps even in the winter of 2025... Toothless Malina is no different from other cats. From her temporary caretaker, we know that she isn't afraid of minced meat and devours it in seconds. There are no problems with wet food - she always finds room for an extra portion. Malina needs what most of us need for happiness: peace and cats. She is currently smitten with a tomcat named Ryszard and won't miss any shared nap. She is very well socialized with cats and cannot be kept as an only cat. Regarding peace - we are looking for a home without small children. The cat is cautious, doesn't like loud noises and noise. We are looking for a stable cottage and caretakers who value naps with a cat more than doghouses. The cat is in Bydgoszcz, and is looking for a home throughout Poland. Malina is virtually supported:

Malina Kotka jest młoda, ma około 2-3 lat (01.2026). Jest FIV/FeLV ujemna, zaszczepiona, odrobaczona, wykastrowana i… bezzębna. Zęby straciła w wyniku choroby dziąseł i reakcji autoimmunologicznej organizmu. Gdyby kotka nie stanęła na naszej drodze, to czekałaby ją śmierć głodowa, być może jeszcze zimy 2025 roku… Bezzębna Malina w niczym nie odstaje od innych kotów. Od opiekunki tymczasowej wiemy, że nie boi się mięsa mielonego i rozprawia się z nim w sekundę. Nie ma problemów z jedzeniem mokrej karmy, zawsze znajdzie miejsce w brzuszku na dokładkę. Malina do szczęścia potrzebuje tego, czego potrzebuje większość z nas: spokoju i kotów. Aktualnie jest zakochana w kocurze Ryszardzie i nie odpuści żadnej wspólnej drzemki. Jest bardzo dobrze zsocjalizowana z kotami i nie może zostać jedynaczką. Jeśli chodzi o spokój – szukamy jej domu bez małych dzieci. Kotka jest ostrożna, nie lubi harmidru i hałasu. Szukamy jej stabilnej chaty i opiekunów, którzy wyżej cenią drzemki z kotem od domówek. Kotka jest w Bydgoszczy, domu szuka w całej Polsce. Malinkę wirtualnie wspiera: BRAK WIRTUALNEGO OPIEKUNA

About Malina

What life with Malina looks like

Malina is a young adult cat waiting at Fundacja Kot Toruń 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 Malina, answered.

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