Chestnut

Female

We recently took in two mothers with a total of seven babies from a private individual. Chestnut is one of the babies. She is used to people and is social. She can be petted and it is okay to carry and handle her. Chestnut has lived indoors her entire life, but has now been given access to an outdoor exercise yard. She can live either indoors or outdoors in her new home. She will be spayed at about 6 months of age. She can move to a new home before then, provided she is not to live with an unspayed male. Djurens Vänner Skåne will book a time for spaying, and thus cover the cost as long as the spaying is performed at the appointed time and place. We only place rabbits as free-roaming, alternatively to larger enclosures. At least 4.5 square meters. We do not place rabbits in cage keeping! Rabbits should always live in pairs or groups. They should be insured in their new homes.

Vi tog nyligen emot två mammor med sammanlagt sju ungar från en privatperson. Chestnut är en av ungarna. Hon är van vid människor och hon är social. Man kan klappa henne och det går okej att bära och hantera henne. Chestnut har bott inomhus i hela sitt liv, men har nu fått tillgång till en rastgård utomhus. Hon kan bo antingen utomhus eller inomhus i sitt nya hem. Hon ska kastreras vid ca 6 månaders ålder. Hon kan flytta till ett nytt hem innan dess, förutsatt att hon inte ska bo med en oksatrerad hane. Djurens Vänner Skåne kommer att boka en tid för kastrering, och därmed stå för kostnaden så länge kastreringen utförs på utsatt tid och plats. Vi placerar bara kaniner som frigående, alternativt till större inhägnader. Minst 4,5kvm. Vi placerar inga kaniner till burhållning! Kaninerna ska alltid bo i par eller grupp. De ska vara försäkrade i sina nya hem.

About Chestnut

What life with Chestnut looks like

Chestnut is a adult rabbit waiting at Djurens Vanner Goteborg in Sweden.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chestnut, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Chestnut?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Djurens Vanner Goteborg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Chestnut on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Chestnut if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Djurens Vanner Goteborg 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 Chestnut already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most rabbits 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 Chestnut 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 Djurens Vanner Goteborg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Chestnut 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 (SV). 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.
