Dobby und Amy

Unknown · Young · 3 years

Dobby originally came from a bad husbandry situation, where he was also the bullying victim of the other uncastrated males, which is why his ears are also severely scarred. Here at our shelter, he sat alone for a very long time, and unfortunately, no one showed interest in the little guy. There were highs and lows, and numerous vet visits because he often stopped eating, which turned out to be due to loneliness. We had to offer him various (unfortunately unhealthy) treats for a long time just to get him to eat anything on his own. Since Amy joined his family recently, he has (for his circumstances) once again taken a keen interest in fresh food and is slowly warming up. This shows how important it is for rabbits to have each other! Now, they are looking for a nice home where they can truly be rabbits. Medical background: Dobby und Amy has a cold germ and should therefore not be introduced to other rabbits. Both currently show no symptoms, and it has been a long time since the cold front. Of course, the cold could flare up again and would then need to be treated. Dobby unfortunately has a malformation of the incisors, which need to be trimmed regularly (every 3 months). (please do not let this deter you, we are happy to answer any questions you may have)

DE·Show original

Dobby kam ursprünglich aus einer schlechten Haltung, dort war er auch das Mobbingopfer der anderen nicht Kastrierten Männchen, daher stammen auch die stark vernarbten Ohren. Bei uns saß er sehr lange alleine und Interessiert hat sich leider auch niemand für den kleinen Mann. Es gab Höhen und tiefen und zahlreiche Tierarzttermine da er oft das fressen einstellte, wie sich dann herausstellte, aus Einsamkeit. Wir mussten ihm sehr lange allerlei (leider ungesunde) leckereien anbieten damit er überhaupt etwas selber frisst. Seit dem er seit kurzem seine Amy bei sich hat stürzt er sich (für seine Verhältnisse) wieder aufs Frischfutter und taut immer mehr auf. Daran sieht man wie wichtig es ist das Kaninchen einander haben! Jetzt suchen sie gemeinsam ein schönes Zuhause in dem sie richtig Kaninchen sein dürfen. Medizinischer Background: Dobby und Amy besitzen einen Schnupfen Keim und sollten daher nicht zu anderen Kaninchen ziehen. Beide haben zurzeit keine Symptome und es ist schon sehr lange ruhe an der Schnupfenfront. Es kann natürlich sein das der Schnupfen nochmal ausbricht und dann behandelt werden muss. Dobby hat leider eine Zahnfehlstellung der Schneidezähne, diese müssen Regelmäßig gekürzt werden (alle 3 Monate). (bitte lassen sie sich nicht abschrecken, wir beantworten gerne die Ihnen aufgekommenen Fragen)

About Dobby und Amy

What life with Dobby und Amy looks like

Frequently asked

Adopting Dobby und Amy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dobby und Amy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kolner Tierschutzverein handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dobby und Amy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dobby und Amy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kolner Tierschutzverein 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 Dobby und Amy 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 Dobby und Amy 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 Kolner Tierschutzverein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dobby und Amy 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.
