Misia

Female · Senior · 15 years

Misia is a beautiful tricolor senior cat who, despite having experienced difficult times, has not lost her fondness for people. She arrived at the shelter severely overweight and with neglected fur, indicating that she may have gone without proper care for a long time. Today, she’s slowly regaining her shape and is waiting for a place she can call home. She’s an exceptionally friendly and people-oriented kitty. She loves human company and has absolutely no hesitation about seeking attention. Petting is one of her favorite pleasures, and as soon as she spots a potential cuddle buddy, she’ll make it very clear that she’d love to spend some time in their company. Misia is a cat who clearly values close human companionship. She eagerly seeks contact and seems eager to make up for lost time spent without adequate care and attention. Her open nature and warm-hearted character make it hard to pass her by without noticing. Currently, Misia is on a weight-loss diet that’s already yielding initial results. The future guardian should be prepared to continue following the dietary recommendations to help her reach and maintain a healthy body weight. We’re looking for a loving and responsible forever home for Misia—a home where she’ll be surrounded by care, receive the right attention, and never again lack affection. We believe this special kitty deserves a peaceful, safe future by the side of people who’ll never let her down again. We invite you to fill out the pre-adoption questionnaire and come visit the shelter with the completed form already ready: Before adopting, please make sure your home or apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Please note: If you decide to adopt a cat or are considering adoption, be sure to bring a carrier or transport bag for cats to the shelter.

Misia to piękna trikolorowa seniorka, która mimo trudnych doświadczeń nie straciła sympatii do ludzi. Do schroniska trafiła z dużą nadwagą i zaniedbanym futerkiem, co pokazuje, że przez długi czas mogła nie otrzymywać odpowiedniej opieki. Dziś powoli wraca do formy i czeka na miejsce, które będzie mogła nazwać swoim domem. To niezwykle kontaktowa i proludzka koteczka. Uwielbia obecność człowieka i nie ma najmniejszych oporów, by upominać się o uwagę. Głaski należą do jej ulubionych przyjemności, a gdy tylko zauważy potencjalnego kandydata do miziania, potrafi bardzo wyraźnie dać znać, że chętnie skorzysta z jego towarzystwa. Misia jest kotką, która wyraźnie ceni sobie bliskość ludzi. Chętnie nawiązuje kontakt i sprawia wrażenie, jakby chciała nadrobić czas bez odpowiedniej troski i zainteresowania. Jej otwarte usposobienie i serdeczny charakter sprawiają, że trudno przejść obok niej obojętnie. Obecnie Misia pozostaje na diecie odchudzającej, która już przynosi pierwsze efekty. Przyszły opiekun powinien być przygotowany do kontynuowania zaleceń dotyczących żywienia, aby pomóc jej osiągnąć i utrzymać prawidłową masę ciała. Szukamy dla Misi kochającego i odpowiedzialnego domu na zawsze. Takiego, w którym będzie otoczona troską, otrzyma odpowiednią opiekę i już nigdy nie zabraknie jej miłości. Wierzymy, że ta wyjątkowa koteczka zasługuje na spokojną, bezpieczną przyszłość u boku ludzi, którzy już nigdy jej nie zawiodą. Zapraszamy do zapoznania się z ankietą przedadopcyjną i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów.

About Misia

What life with Misia looks like

Misia is a small senior cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇵🇱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 Misia, answered.

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