Zendaya

Female · Young · 1 year

The animal is under the care of the foundation and does not reside in an animal shelter. People interested in adoption are kindly asked to contact the foundation directly. 🐱 Young Zendaya is looking for a quiet place forever after many hardships she has gone through. 🐱 An 8-month-old Zendaya could have taught even an older, feline companion a lot with her experiences. First as a stray, young kitten was taken to the Warsaw animal shelter. There she completely lost her way. The stress from the unfamiliar place took its toll, and Zendaya felt worse day by day until she finally received the diagnosis we feared the most: a three-letter virus attacked her exhausted and frustrated body. Unfortunately, it is impossible to treat this virus in an animal shelter. Thanks to Magda and Lukasz's quick decision and an emergency spot they organized for her in their temporary home, Zendaya got a chance and was placed under the care of our foundation. She immediately started treatment and fortunately, in a calmer environment, under caring supervision, she felt better. Zendaya still has neurological problems that require further diagnostics. The kitten has difficulty seeing at a distance, and when she is tense, her body trembles, and her left hind leg is not fully under control. We know that this condition requires further treatment, so we are looking for the cause of her current problems. Zendaya herself seems not to worry about her health condition on a daily basis. She is curious, very energetic and eager to play. It's impossible to burn off her energy, because it seems to be endless 😉 Unfortunately, Zendaya's neurological problems sometimes affect her perception of the surroundings. Due to poor eyesight and uncertainty in movement, Zendaya can become very scared and defensive. For this reason, we are looking for an experienced, calm home that will approach her needs with understanding, patience, and compassion. At this moment, we do not recommend her for a home with small children. Regarding her relationship with other animals, Zendaya is interested in them, but there are times when she behaves difficultly toward feline residents. For this reason, we recommend her as a solitary kitten or to an experienced home that socializes cats, which will be able to introduce Zendaya to a feline group slowly and with full understanding of her feline needs. Zendaya will be available for adoption after the treatment is completed, but you can already call and schedule a meeting with this amazing, very young kitten 🙂 🐾 Zendaya is 8 months old (status as of February 2026), 🐾 Spayed, 🐾 Negative tests for FIV and Felv, 🐾 Vaccinated and dewormed, 🐾 Uses the litter box, 🐾 Suitable for a home with children: No, 🐾 Suitable for a home with other cats: Recommended for a solitary kitten. ☎️ More information:

Zwierzę jest pod opieką fundacji i nie przebywa w Schronisku. Osoby zainteresowane adopcją prosimy o bezpośredni kontakt z fundacją. 🐱 Młodziutka Zendaya szuka spokojnego miejsca na zawsze po wielu trudach, które przeszła🐱 8-miesięczna Zendaya swoimi przeżyciami mogłaby obdarować niejednego starszego, kociego kolegę. Najpierw jako bezdomna, młoda kicia trafiła do warszawskiego schroniska. Tam zupełnie nie potrafiła się odnaleźć. Stres związany z obcym miejscem zrobił swoje, Zendaya z dnia na dzień czuła się coraz gorzej, aż w końcu dostała diagnozę, której obawialiśmy się najbardziej: trzyliterowy wirus zaatakował jej zmęczone i sfrustrowane ciałko. Niestety niemożliwe jest leczenie tego wirusa w schronisku. Dzięki szybkiej decyzji Magdy i Łukasza i awaryjnemu miejscu, które zorganizowali dla niej w swoim domu tymczasowym Zendaya dostała szansę i trafiła pod opiekę naszej Fundacji. Natychmiast zaczęła kurację i na szczęście w spokojniejszym miejscu, pod troskliwą opieką poczuła się lepiej. Zendaya wciąż ma problemy neurologiczne, które wymagają dalszej diagnostyki. Koteczka ma problemy z widzeniem na odległość, w momencie napięcia mięśni drga jej ciałko, a lewa tylna nóżka nie jest w pełni władna. Wiemy, że taki stan rzeczy wymaga dalszego leczenia, dlatego szukamy przyczyny jej aktualnych problemów. Sama Zendaya na co dzień zdaje się nie przejmować swoim stanem zdrowia. Jest ciekawska, bardzo energiczna i chętna do zabawy. Nie sposób spożytkować jej energię, bo ta zdaje się być nieskończona 😉 Niestety problemy neurologiczne Zendayi rzutują czasem na jej odbiór otoczenia. Przez niedowidzenie i niepewność w ruchach Zendayi zdarzy się mocno przestraszyć i bronić. Z tego powodu szukamy dla niej doświadczonego, spokojnego domu, który z wyrozumiałością, cierpliwością i zrozumieniem będzie podchodził do jej potrzeb. Na ten moment nie polecamy jej do domu z małymi dziećmi. Jeśli chodzi o stosunek do innych zwierząt Zendaya jest ich ciekawa, ale zdarzają jej się trudne zachowania względem kocich rezydentów. Z tego powodu polecamy ją raczej na kocią jedynaczkę lub do doświadczonego w socjalizacji kotów domu, który będzie mógł wprowadzać Zendayę do kociego stada powoli i z pełnym zrozumieniem jej kocich potrzeb. Zendaya będzie do adopcji po zakończeniu kuracji, ale już teraz możesz zadzwonić i umówić się na zapoznanie z tą wyjątkową, młodziutką koteczką 🙂 🐾 Zendaya ma 8 miesięcy (stan na luty 2026), 🐾 Jest wykastrowana, 🐾 Testy na FIV i Felv ma ujemne, 🐾 Zaszczepiona i odrobaczona, 🐾 Korzysta z kuwetki, 🐾 Czy do domu z dziećmi: Nie, 🐾 Czy do domu z innymi kotami: Rekomendowana adopcja na kocią jedynaczkę. ☎️ Więcej informacji: Magda,

About Zendaya

What life with Zendaya looks like

Zendaya 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.

Note from the shelter: Neurological problems affecting vision, muscle tremors, and partial paralysis of left hind leg. Requires ongoing medical treatment and diagnostics.

🇵🇱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 Zendaya, answered.

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