Arisu

Male · Young · 1 year

I am a very shy bird who has been at the shelter since December 29, 2025 (private surrender). I absolutely need sufficient space to fly properly - a regular bird cage will definitely be too small for me. For species-appropriate care, I absolutely need a companion of my own kind - ideally a nice female. I am very skittish and don't like being near humans. You must handle me very gently so I can learn to trust you.

About Arisu

What life with Arisu looks like

Arisu is a small young adult bird waiting at Tierheim Wels in Wels.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

Note from the shelter: Requires large flight space, cannot be housed in standard bird cage. Needs gentle handling and patience to build trust. Must be housed with another bird, preferably female.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Arisu, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Arisu?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Wels handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Arisu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Arisu if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a bird can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierheim Wels what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Arisu already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a bird comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tierheim Wels directly what is included and what Arisu still needs.
What happens if Arisu 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 Tierheim Wels early rather than rehoming privately; they know Arisu 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 (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
