Bella

Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Flöckchen (white) and Bella (black) are a wonderful pair of rabbits who lost their shared home because of a divorce. The two make a perfect team, which is why we would like them to continue living together. Although they get along with other rabbits, we would prefer to find a new home for Flöckchen and Bella as a group rather than in a group housing setup. Normally, Flöckchen and Bella are friendly and fairly open (Flöckchen is a little shyer than Bella), but at the moment both are still shocked by their sudden change of location. For Flöckchen and Bella, we wish for a nice, spacious, and varied enclosure where they can explore together. Their new family should not pressure the two and should let them settle in peacefully. Later, their long head fur should be combed regularly so that it does not become matted. Our pair can live in an outdoor enclosure, as they do with us at the moment. The stated adoption fee applies per animal.

Flöckchen (weiß) und Bella (schwarz) sind ein wunderschönes Kaninchenpaar, die ihr gemeinsames Zuhause wegen Scheidung verloren haben. Beide bilden ein perfektes Team, weshalb sie auch weiterhin zusammen leben sollen. Auch wenn sie sich mit Artgenossen verstehen - wir würden ein neues Zuhause nur für Flöckchen und Bella einer Gruppenhaltung vorziehen. Normalerweise verhalten sich Flöckchen und Bella freundlich und eher aufgeschlossen (Flöckchen ist etwas schüchterner als Bella), momentan sind beide aber wegen ihres plötzlichen Ortswechsels noch geschockt. Wir wünschen uns für Flöckchen und Bella ein schönes geräumiges und abwechselungsreiches Gehege, dass sie gemeinsam unsicher machen dürfen. Ihre neue Familie soll die beiden nicht bedrängen und sich in Ruhe einleben lassen. Später sollte das lange Kopfhaar regelmäßig gekämmt werden, damit es nicht verfilzt. Unser Pärchen kann in einem Außengehege wohnen, wie es das auch momentan bei uns tut. Die angegebene Schutzgebühr gilt pro Tier.

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is an adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Bocholt in Bocholt.

Rabbits are social animals — most shelters recommend adopting them in bonded pairs rather than alone. They need fresh hay daily, several hours of out-of-cage time, and rabbit-safe spaces to explore. They live eight to twelve years, longer than many people expect.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

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 Bella, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bella?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Bocholt handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bella if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a rabbit can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierheim Bocholt what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Bella already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a rabbit 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 Bocholt directly what is included and what Bella still needs.
What happens if Bella 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 Bocholt early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bella 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.
