Adopt Malwi

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Malwi had been a backyard cat for a long time, taking a liking to one of our volunteers' property. Gradually, she began to acclimate to human presence, and it became clear that she had the potential to be a house cat. She arrived at a temporary home in Lublin, where she is learning to live within four walls and making great progress. Character: Malwi is a feline individualist with a big heart. She loves closeness, rubbing against legs, and willingly allows herself to be petted—but on her own terms. Though she’s not fond of being picked up, she will allow it if needed. Cleanliness: She uses the litter box immaculately and has never had an accident. Appetite: She eats nicely and is not a picky eater. Feline manners: She sets boundaries with her paws—if they are respected, there are no tantrums. Occasionally, when she is very excited, she may gently thump her paw or nip, but she never does so forcefully. Relationship with other cats: She tolerates other cats but would do best as a singleton or in the company of a calm cat or cats. Weak points? She dislikes noise and sudden movements, and she may call out at night and… bite cables, so be careful! Malwi would do best in a quiet home. Too much people or animal presence might overwhelm her. If you’re looking for a feline companion who will shower you with affection but also maintain its independent feline boundaries—Malwi is waiting for you!

Malwi przez długi czas była kotem działkowym , upodobała sobie działkę jednej z naszych wolontariuszek. Stopniowo zaczęła oswajać się z człowiekiem, aż w końcu stało się jasne, że ma potencjał na domowego kota. Trafiła do domu tymczasowego w Lublinie, gdzie uczy się życia w czterech ścianach i robi duże postępy. Charakter: Malwi to kocia indywidualistka z wielkim sercem. Uwielbia bliskość, ociera się o nogi i chętnie daje się głaskać – ale na własnych zasadach. Choć nie przepada za braniem na ręce, w razie potrzeby pozwoli się podnieść.Czystość: Wzorowo korzysta z kuwety, nigdy nie miała wpadek.Apetycik: Je ładnie i nie jest wybredna.Kocie maniery: Stawia granice łapką – jeśli się je uszanuje, nie dochodzi do żadnych spięć. Czasem, gdy jest bardzo podekscytowana, może lekko uderzyć łapką lub złapać zębami, ale nigdy nie robi tego mocno.Stosunek do innych kotów: Toleruje inne koty, ale najlepiej odnajdzie się jako jedynaczka lub w towarzystwie spokojnego kota/kotów.Słabsze strony? Nie lubi hałasu i gwałtownych ruchów, zdarza jej się nawoływać w nocy i… gryzie kable, więc trzeba na to uważać! Malwi najlepiej odnajdzie się w spokojnym domu. Zbyt duża ilość ludzi czy zwierząt może ją przytłaczać. Jeśli szukasz kociego towarzysza, który obdarzy Cię czułością, ale jednocześnie będzie miał swoje niezależne kocie granice – Malwi czeka właśnie na Ciebie!

About Malwi

What life with Malwi looks like

Malwi is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Trzymaj Się Kocie 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 Malwi, answered.

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