How do I contact the shelter about Ołena?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Viva Korabiewice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ołena on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ołena if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Viva Korabiewice 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 Ołena 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 Ołena 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 Fundacja Viva Korabiewice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ołena 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.

Ołena

Mixed Breed · Female

Name: Olena Year of birth: 2017 In animal shelter since: 12.2022 Female Spayed: yes Body structure: rather normal Coat: tricolor Relationship with other cats: rather positive Relationship with dogs: not checked Relationship with people: rather positive, but sometimes shy Temperament: sometimes shy, we are constantly working on gaining her trust, she is opening up more and more. Olena came to us from Ukraine. She was a stray cat, she reacted aggressively to attempts to contact, now it's better. She likes people, presents herself for pets, but still sets limits that must be respected. She needs a patient and calm home, ready to work with her. She is quiet, likes to watch her surroundings. She is a carrier of the FIV virus, therefore we are looking for a home without other cats or with cats that are negative. The virus is not dangerous for humans and other animal species. Negative FeLV test. Uses litter box.

About Ołena

What life with Ołena looks like

Ołena is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Fundacja Viva Korabiewice in Korabiewice.

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.
