Persefona

Female · Adult · 5 years

Persephone is probably the sweetest thing that’s ever ended up in Viking Kitchen’s catering bag. 🍩 She’s a fluffy black ball with the charming personality of a typical feline princess—she absolutely loves humans, though she doesn’t particularly enjoy sharing them. She loves being petted and loves curling up on laps (and if she ever feels neglected, she’ll make sure you know about it). 💁🏼‍♀️ In the photo on the left, she looks a bit like she really could use that meal-prep diet—but in reality, she’s more on the smaller side, yet extra fluffy. Combined with her unique personality, that makes for a truly special feline blend. 😼 She’s eagerly waiting for her human, whose lap and whose arms she’ll be able to snuggle into every single day—for as long as the world lasts. 🖤 She’s looking for a home as an only cat.

Prawdopodobnie Persefona to najsłodsze, co kiedykolwiek znalazło się w torbie cateringu Kuchni Vikinga. 🍩 To puszysta czarna kulka o urzekającym usposobieniu typowej kociej księżniczki, która bardzo lubi człowieka, ale niespecjalnie lubi się nim dzielić. Lubi się miziać i lubi na kolanka (a jakby się jej odwidziało, nie omieszka dać znać). 💁🏼‍♀️Na zdjęciu po lewej wyszła trochę, jakby faktycznie potrzebowała tej diety pudełkowej, ale w rzeczywistości jest raczej z tych mniejszych, za to z tych bardziej puchatych, co w połączeniu z jej charakterem daje nam naprawdę wyjątkową kocią mieszankę. 😼Czeka z niecierpliwością na swojego człowieka, na którego kolanka i do którego toreb będzie sobie mogła włazić codziennie już do końca świata. 🖤 Szuka domu jako jedynaczka.

About Persefona

What life with Persefona looks like

Persefona is a small adult 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 Persefona, answered.

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