BigMama

Mixed Breed · Unknown

BigMama is the mother of many abandoned young animals in our animal shelter. Fortunately, she was also eventually caught and immediately spayed so she will never have to give birth and raise so many children again. BigMama is a large but very slender Giant Rex. Initially, she is very shy and skittish, especially with strangers and unfamiliar surroundings. After a while, however, she warms up and shows herself to be sociable and friendly with familiar people. You just have to gain her trust first. She gets along with other rabbits without any problems. Then please send us an email with information about your current rabbit keeping with corresponding photos. Are you planning to start keeping rabbits and don't have a cage yet? We are also happy to help with advice and tips and answer your questions. We would be happy to make an appointment and show you our rabbits, as well as possible cage options and furnishing variations.

BigMama ist das Muttertier von den vielen ausgesetzten Jungtieren in unserem Tierheim. Auch sie konnte zum Glück letztendlich eingefangen werden und wurde umgehend kastriert, damit sie nie wieder so viele Kinder zur Welt bringen und aufziehen muss. BigMama ist eine große, aber sehr schlanke Riesenschecke. Anfangs ist sie sehr schüchtern und schreckhaft, vor allem bei fremden Personen und fremder Umgebung.Nach einer Weile taut sie jedoch auf und zeigt sich bei bekannten Menschen kontaktfreudig und freundlich. Man muss nur erst ihr Vertrauen gewinnen. Mit anderen Kaninchen ist sie problemlos verträglich. Dann schick uns gerne eine E-Mail mit Informationen über deine aktuelle Kaninchenhaltung mit entsprechenden Fotos. Es ist noch kein Gehege vorhanden und du planst mit der Kaninchenhaltung anzufangen? Auch hierfür stehen wir gerne mit Rat und Tipps zur Verfügung und beantworten deine Fragen. Wir vereinbaren sehr gerne einen Termin und zeigen dir unsere Kaninchen, sowie mögliche Gehegeoptionen und Einrichtungsvarianten.

About BigMama

What life with BigMama looks like

BigMama is a small adult mixed breed animal waiting at Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. in Minden.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows BigMama far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting BigMama, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about BigMama?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw BigMama on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt BigMama if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. 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 BigMama already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals 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 BigMama 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 Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know BigMama 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
