Adopt Donald und Alwin

Male · Young · 1 year

Donald und Alwin were born with us at the animal shelter. Unfortunately, they are still a bit shy, which is why there have been few interested parties for them so far. Rabbits are simply not what one would call "pettable" animals. Much nicer is to observe the animals. Donald und Alwin get along wonderfully and would like to move into a new, species-appropriate life together. If you are interested in the two gentlemen, we look forward to an email from you. We would also be happy to receive photos of the accommodation for your rabbits. We do not provide caging. Information and tips on species-appropriate rabbit care can be found on websites such as www.diebrain.de or www.kaninchenwiese.de.

Donald und Alwin sind bei uns im Tierheim geboren. Leider sind sie immer noch etwas scheu, weshalb es bisher kaum Interessenten für sie gab. Kaninchen sind nun einmal keine „Streicheltiere”. Viel schöner ist es, die Tiere zu beobachten. Donald und Alwin verstehen sich blendend und möchten zusammen in ein neues, artgerechtes Leben ziehen.Wenn Sie sich für die beiden netten Herren interessieren, freuen wir uns über eine E-Mail von Ihnen. Gerne können Sie uns auch Fotos von der Unterbringung Ihrer Kaninchen schicken. Wir vermitteln nicht in Käfighaltung.Informationen und Tipps rund um eine artgerechte Kaninchenhaltung finden Sie unter anderem auf den Websites www.diebrain.de oder www.kaninchenwiese.de.

About Donald und Alwin

What life with Donald und Alwin looks like

Donald und Alwin is a young adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Bergheim in Bergheim.

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

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 Donald und Alwin, answered.

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