How do I contact the shelter about Obsydian?

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 Obsydian on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Obsydian 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 Obsydian 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 Obsydian 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 Obsydian 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.

Obsydian

Male · Young · 1 year

Obsydian is a young, black male cat with a soft coat and an even softer heart. ❤ Unfortunately, Obsydian returned from an unsuccessful adoption for reasons completely out of his control. Despite the situation he found himself in, he remains cheerful, open to contact, and ready to trust a person again. This is a gentle, affectionate and human-contact-seeking little cat. He loves being petted and being close, and immediately relaxes in the arms of his caregiver. The male cat is very energetic and curious. He watches his surroundings with interest and gladly engages in play. Obsydian will definitely bring warmth and positive energy into your home. We are looking for a family that will open their hearts to him and give him a safe, loving place. Before adoption, we recommend getting to know the pre-adoption questionnaire and coming to the animal shelter with the completed form: Note: If you decide to adopt a cat or are considering it, be sure to bring a carrier or transport bag for cats to the animal shelter. Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Remember to secure the windows and balcony.

Obsydian to młody, czarny kocurek o miękkim futerku i jeszcze miększym sercu. ❤ Niestety Obsydian wrócił z nieudanej adopcji z powodów całkowicie niezależnych od siebie. Mimo sytuacji w jakiej się znalazł, wciąż pozostaje pogodny, otwarty na kontakt i gotowy, by na nowo zaufać człowiekowi. To łagodna, przytulaśna i spragniona kontaktu z człowiekiem kocia duszyczka. Uwielbia głaskanie i bliskość, a w ramionach swojego opiekuna od razu się rozluźnia. Kocurek jest bardzo energiczny i ciekawski. Z zainteresowaniem obserwuje otoczenie i chętnie angażuje się w zabawę. Obsydian z pewnością wniesie do domu ciepło i pozytywną energię. Szukamy dla niego rodziny, która otworzy przed nim serce i podaruje mu bezpieczne, pełne miłości miejsce. 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 Obsydian

What life with Obsydian looks like

Obsydian 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.

Note from the shelter: Previously returned from failed adoption

🇵🇱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.
