Manami

Female · Young · 3 years

Manami is a beautiful tricolor kitten who arrived at the shelter together with Hanako (401/26). Her beginnings were very difficult—terrified by her new situation, she spent most of her time hiding in her kennel, cautiously observing her surroundings. Today, we’re already seeing the first, very clear signs of progress. Manami is increasingly eager to come out of her hiding place, opens up to human contact, and enjoys being petted. She’s still somewhat shy, but each day she gains more confidence and slowly builds a sense of security. She’s a kitten who absolutely loves playing together with others. She especially delights in playing with a fishing rod, during which she forgets her insecurities and shows off her youthful energy. It’s precisely through calm play and a patient approach that it’s easiest to earn her trust. We’re looking for patient and understanding caregivers for Manami—people who’ll allow her to open up at her own pace. We believe that in a calm, loving home, she’ll quickly gain confidence and show just how wonderful a kitten she truly is. Before adopting, we kindly ask that you review the pre-adoption questionnaire and bring it filled out to the shelter. Please note: When deciding to adopt a cat or considering adoption, be sure to bring a carrier or transport bag for cats to the shelter. Before adopting, make sure your home or apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Remember to secure windows and balconies.

Manami to piękna trikolorowa koteczka, która do Schroniska trafiła razem z Hanako (401/26). Początki były dla niej bardzo trudne – przerażona nową sytuacją większość czasu spędzała schowana w swojej budce, z ostrożnością obserwując otoczenie. Dziś widać już pierwsze, bardzo wyraźne postępy. Manami coraz chętniej wychodzi ze swojej kryjówki, otwiera się na kontakt z człowiekiem i z przyjemnością daje się głaskać. Nadal bywa nieśmiała, ale z każdym dniem nabiera odwagi i powoli buduje poczucie bezpieczeństwa. To koteczka, która uwielbia wspólną zabawę. Szczególną radość sprawiają jej zabawy z wędką, podczas których zapomina o niepewności i pokazuje swoją młodzieńczą energię. To właśnie poprzez spokojną zabawę i cierpliwe podejście najłatwiej zdobyć jej zaufanie. Szukamy dla Manami cierpliwych i wyrozumiałych opiekunów, którzy pozwolą jej otwierać się we własnym tempie. Wierzymy, że w spokojnym, kochającym domu szybko nabierze pewności siebie i pokaże, jak wspaniałą jest koteczką. Przed adopcją sugerujemy zapoznanie się z kwestionariuszem przedadopcyjnym i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów. Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Pamiętaj, żeby zabezpieczyć okna i balkon.

About Manami

What life with Manami looks like

Manami 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 Manami, answered.

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