Muriel

Mixed Breed · Female

Muriel is a calm, although somewhat shy kitten. She came to us after an accident in which she broke her pelvis and femur. She had surgery and spent several months in the shelter hospital. She went through many unpleasant things related to wound care, treatment and rehabilitation, yet she opened up to people. She needs a moment to trust a new person, but once she gets to know them, she becomes increasingly interested and likes to be near them. The road to her heart goes largely through her stomach, so petting and scratching under the chin is worth trying first while serving treats. Muriel likes to play, although rather cautiously and not aggressively. She gets along well with her calm roommates, so she could go to a home where there is already a kitten, but it would be best if the cat was calm and friendly, who wouldn't dominate her.

PL·Show original

Muriel to spokojna, choć trochę bojaźliwa koteczka. Trafiła do nas po wypadku, w którym złamała miednicę i kość udową. Przeszła operację i kilka miesięcy spędziła w schroniskowym szpitalu. Przeżyła wiele nieprzyjemności w związku z pielęgnacją ran, leczeniem i rehabilitacją, a mimo to otworzyła się na ludzi. Potrzebuje chwili na zaufanie nowej osobie, ale kiedy już ją pozna, jest nią coraz bardziej zainteresowana i lubi przebywać w jej pobliżu. Droga do jej serduszka prowadzi w dużej mierze przez żołądek, więc głaskania i miziania pod bródką warto spróbować najpierw podczas serwowania smaczków. Muriel lubi się bawić, choć raczej ostrożnie i nienachalnie. Dobrze dogaduje się ze swoimi spokojnymi współlokatorami, więc mogłaby trafić do domu, w którym mieszka już kociak, ale najlepiej właśnie spokojny i ugodowy, który by jej nie zdominował.

About Muriel

What life with Muriel looks like

Muriel is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Muriel, answered.

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