Mirinda

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Mirinda is a young kitten who is just discovering that a person can be more than just "someone for food." She is a curious soul with a feline character. For now, she best connects with people... through a fishing rod or some other toy. Play is her language of love—then she blossoms, dashes over, observes, and engages. It’s clear she hasn’t had much close contact with humans before. She was likely a fed stray, a "backyard" cat. But she is definitely not wild—rather cautious and a bit shy, like someone learning to trust. And the good news is—Mirinda is making great progress very quickly. She is smart, observant, and curious about the world. In a calm home, with a patient caretaker, she will soon become accustomed to human presence, and over time, to touch. This is a kitten who needs time, but the time will truly be worth it. Mirinda is a young kitten who deserves a safe home and a person who will show her that a relationship with a human can be fun, warm, and full of joy. If you have a little patience and a heart—she has the potential to repay you with a feline friendship.

Mirinda to młoda kotka, która dopiero odkrywa, że człowiek może być kimś więcej niż tylko „tym od jedzenia”. Jest to ciekawską duszą z kocim charakterkiem. Na razie najlepiej dogaduje się z ludźmi… przez wędkę albo inną zabawkę. Zabawa to jej język miłości – wtedy rozkwita, podbiega, obserwuje, zaczepia. Widać, że wcześniej nie miała bliskiego kontaktu z człowiekiem. Najpewniej była kotką dokarmianą, taką „z podwórka”. Ale absolutnie nie jest dzika – raczej ostrożna i trochę nieśmiała, jak ktoś, kto dopiero uczy się zaufania. I tu dobra wiadomość – Mirinda bardzo szybko robi postępy. Jest bystra, uważna i ciekawa świata. W spokojnym domu, przy cierpliwym opiekunie, szybko oswoi się z obecnością ludzi, a z czasem także z dotykiem. To kotka, która potrzebuje czasu, ale ten czas naprawdę się opłaci. Mirinda to młoda kotka, która zasługuje na swój bezpieczny dom i człowieka, który pokaże jej, że relacja z człowiekiem może być fajna, ciepła i pełna radości. Jeśli masz w sobie trochę cierpliwości i serca – ona ma ogromny potencjał, by odwdzięczyć się kocią przyjaźnią.

About Mirinda

What life with Mirinda looks like

Mirinda is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Skałowo 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 Mirinda, answered.

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