Adopt PEPITA

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Year of birth: 2025 Meet Pepita - a very young, delicate kitten with an exceptional coat. Her gray-brown fur is decorated with reddish patches that make it hard to look away. She is an extremely subtle and sensitive cat soul who finds it very difficult to cope in the shelter's chaos. PEPITA previously lived in a home and unfortunately lost it not through her fault - she was given up due to her owner's allergies. For such a young and calm kitten, the animal shelter turned out to be a huge stress. Noise, strange smells and constant movement greatly frighten her, so during the first contact she tends to withdraw and be cautious. However, there is something that can overcome her fear - tasty pates. As soon as the fragrant pate appears, PEPITA forgets about her uncertainty and approaches curiously to enjoy the treat. At the same time, she increasingly dares to seek contact with a person and timidly offers herself to be petted. It can be seen that she really wants to trust, she just needs time and a quiet place to feel safe again. We are looking for a patient home full of warmth and peace for Pepita - one where she can slowly open up to a new life. This is a cat who, with proper support, will flourish and repay with a quiet presence and great trust.

Rok urodzenia: 2025 Poznaj Pepitę — młodziutką, delikatną kotkę o wyjątkowym umaszczeniu. Jej szaro-bure futerko ozdabiają rude plamki, które sprawiają, że trudno oderwać od niej wzrok. To niezwykle subtelna i wrażliwa kocia dusza, która bardzo źle odnajduje się w schroniskowym zgiełku. Pepita wcześniej mieszkała w domu i niestety straciła go nie ze swojej winy — została oddana z powodu alergii właścicielki. Dla tak młodej i spokojnej kotki schronisko okazało się ogromnym stresem. Hałas, obce zapachy i ciągły ruch bardzo ją przerażają, dlatego przy pierwszym kontakcie bywa wycofana i ostrożna. Jest jednak coś, co potrafi przełamać jej strach — płynne smaczki. Gdy tylko pojawia się pachnący sosik, Pepita zapomina o niepewności i z zaciekawieniem podchodzi, by delektować się przysmakiem. Przy okazji coraz odważniej szuka też kontaktu z człowiekiem i nieśmiało nadstawia się do głaskania. Widać, że bardzo chce zaufać, tylko potrzebuje czasu i spokojnego miejsca, by znów poczuć się bezpiecznie. Szukamy dla Pepity cierpliwego domu pełnego ciepła i spokoju — takiego, w którym będzie mogła powoli otworzyć się na nowe życie. To kotka, która przy odpowiednim wsparciu rozkwitnie i odwdzięczy się cichą obecnością oraz ogromnym zaufaniem.

About PEPITA

What life with PEPITA looks like

PEPITA is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Zielonej Górze in Zielona Góra.

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 PEPITA, answered.

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