How do I contact the shelter about Surma?

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 Surma on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Surma 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 Surma 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 Surma 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 Surma 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.

Surma

Male · Adult · 5 years

Surma is an extraordinary, five-year-old male cat with a black coat and white paws. He is a calm, gentle and sociable cat who greatly values human contact, loves spending time on laps and enjoys every moment close to the caregiver. Unfortunately, Surma is suffering from advanced kidney disease, therefore he urgently needs a quiet home where he will be surrounded by care and proper attention. Currently, he is under constant control of a nephrologist and receives treatment tailored to his needs. The male cat is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and has negative FIV and FeLV tests. He can live in a home with other cats. Despite health difficulties, Surma remains cheerful, calm and easygoing, showing his delicate and loving nature. We are looking for a home full of warmth, stability and patience - a place where he will feel safe and spend peaceful, happy moments next to a person who will love him. Let's not let him wait any longer - Surma deserves a forever home. Before adoption, we recommend familiarizing yourself with the pre-adoption questionnaire and visiting the animal shelter with the completed form: Attention: If you decide to adopt a cat or are considering it, please bring a cat transporter or bag to the animal shelter. Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared to welcome a new family member. Remember to secure the windows and balcony.

Surma to wyjątkowy, pięcioletni kocurek o czarnym futerku i białych łapkach. To spokojny, łagodny i towarzyski kot, który bardzo ceni kontakt z człowiekiem, uwielbia spędzać czas na kolanach i cieszy się każdą chwilą blisko opiekuna. Niestety Surma zmaga się z zaawansowaną chorobą nerek, dlatego pilnie potrzebuje spokojnego domu, w którym będzie otoczony troską i odpowiednią opieką. Obecnie pozostaje pod stałą kontrolą nefrologa i otrzymuje leczenie dostosowane do jego potrzeb. Kocurek jest wykastrowany, zaszczepiony, zachipowany i ma ujemne testy FIV i FeLV. Może mieszkać w domu z innymi kotami. Pomimo trudności zdrowotnych, Surma pozostaje radosny, spokojny i bezproblemowy, pokazując swoją delikatną i czułą naturę. Szukamy dla niego domu pełnego ciepła, stabilności i cierpliwości - miejsca, w którym będzie mógł poczuć się bezpiecznie i spędzić spokojne, szczęśliwe chwile u boku człowieka, który go pokocha. Nie pozwólmy mu dłużej czekać - Surma zasługuje na dom na zawsze. Przed adopcją sugerujemy zapoznanie się z kwestionariuszem przedadopcyjnym i przyjazd do schroniska z już wypełnioną ankietą: Uwaga: Decydując się na adopcję kota lub rozważając ją, koniecznie weź ze sobą do schroniska transporter lub torbę transportową do przewozu kotów. Przed adopcją upewnij się, że Twój dom / mieszkanie jest bezpieczne i odpowiednio przygotowane do przyjęcia nowego członka rodziny. Pamiętaj, żeby zabezpieczyć okna i balkon.

About Surma

What life with Surma looks like

Surma is a small 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.

Note from the shelter: Advanced kidney disease requiring ongoing nephrology care and specialized diet
