About Selina

What life with Selina looks like

Selina is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Schronisko Bialystok in Białystok.

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. Adopters usually cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Selina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Selina?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Schronisko Bialystok handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Selina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Selina if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Schronisko Bialystok whether they will for Selina, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Selina already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Selina. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Schronisko Bialystok, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Selina isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Schronisko Bialystok about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Selina 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.
