Szałwia

Female · Kitten · 8 months

Meet Szałwia, a delicate and extremely cute kitten. She came to us with her kitten family, but she is already ready to start a new journey by the side of a loving caregiver. Szałwia is a calm girl who needs a moment to feel safe. At first, she may be a bit shy, but over time she opens up to people, revealing her gentle and playful nature. When she trusts, she gladly accepts pets and participates in shared games. We are looking for a home full of patience and warmth, where she can blossom at her own pace and show how wonderful a companion she is. We invite you to review the pre-adoption questionnaire and come to the animal shelter with the questionnaire already filled out: Before adoption, make sure your home/apartment is safe and properly prepared for welcoming a new family member. Attention:

Poznaj Szałwię, delikatną i niezwykle uroczą koteczkę. Przyjechała do nas wraz ze swoją kocią rodzinką, ale jest już gotowa, by rozpocząć nową drogę u boku kochającego opiekuna. Szałwia to spokojna dziewczyna, która potrzebuje chwili, by poczuć się bezpiecznie. Z początku może być nieco nieśmiała, jednak z czasem otwiera się na człowieka, odkrywając swoją czułą i zabawową naturę. Gdy zaufa, chętnie korzysta z głasków i angażuje się we wspólne zabawy. Szukamy dla niej domu pełnego cierpliwości i ciepła, w którym będzie mogła rozkwitnąć we własnym tempie i pokazać, jak wspaniałą jest towarzyszką. 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.

About Szałwia

What life with Szałwia looks like

Szałwia is a small puppy/kitten cat waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇵🇱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 Szałwia, answered.

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