Pika

Female · Young · 1 year

Pika is a charming little black kitten who will easily steal everyone’s heart. She’s a true fan of interactive play—fishing rods, balls, and mice are her absolute favorite! After a good dose of feline antics, she’ll snuggle up to you just as happily and enjoy gentle petting. She’s a cheerful, warm, and utterly adorable girl who dreams of having her own home and an owner with whom she can spend every single day. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving feline companion, Pika is waiting just for you. We invite you to fill out the pre-adoption questionnaire and come visit the shelter with your completed application form. Before adopting, make sure your home or apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Please note: When deciding to adopt a cat or considering adoption, be sure to bring a carrier or travel bag for transporting cats to the shelter.

Pika to urocza, czarna koteczka, która z łatwością skradnie serce każdemu. To prawdziwa miłośniczka wspólnej zabawy – wędki, piłeczki i myszki to jej żywioł! Po dawce kocich harców z równie wielką przyjemnością wtula się w człowieka i korzysta z czułych głasków. Jest pogodną, ciepłą i pełną uroku dziewczynką, która marzy o własnym domu i opiekunie, z którym będzie mogła spędzać każdy dzień. Jeśli szukasz wiernej, kochającej kociej przyjaciółki, Pika czeka właśnie na Ciebie. Zapraszamy do zapoznania się z ankietą przedadopcyjną i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów. Jeśli masz kota rezydenta, zabierz ze sobą wyniki testów FIV i FeLV.

About Pika

What life with Pika looks like

Pika 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.

🇵🇱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 Pika, answered.

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