Eros

Male · Adult · 4 years

Eros came to us along with 6 other rabbits. The little fluffy head is rather reserved and cautious and needs some time to get used to new people and environments. If you give him this time and approach him with calmness and patience, he will gradually become more affectionate. Then he is quite curious and enjoys taking food from your hand. We are looking for a quiet, loving home for him, where he can feel safe and arrive at his own pace. He gets along well with his rabbit friends and can also move in with one or more of his friends or to one or more existing companions. If Eros has sparked your interest, we look forward to a meaningful email with pictures of the future living situation. We only mediate in species-appropriate care and not in single-animal care. General inquiries: No known diseases.

Eros kam zusammen mit 6 weiteren Kaninchen zu uns. Der kleine Wuschelkopf ist eher zurückhaltend und vorsichtig und braucht etwas Zeit sich an neue Menschen und Umgebungen zu gewöhnen. Wenn man ihm diese Zeit gibt und ihm mit Ruhe und Geduld begegnet, wird er nach und nach zutraulicher. Dann ist er durchaus neugierig und nimmt Futter gerne aus der Hand entgegen. Für ihn wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause, in dem er sich sicher fühlen und in seinem eigenen Tempo ankommen darf. Mit seinen Kaninchenfreunden versteht er sich gut und kann auch gerne mit einem oder mehreren seiner Freunde ausziehen oder zu einem oder mehreren bereits vorhandenen Artgenossen. Wenn Eros Ihr Interesse geweckt hat freuen wir uns über eine aussagekräftig Email mit Bildern der zukünftigen Haltung. Wir vermitteln grundsätzlich nur in artgerechte Haltung und in keine Einzelhaltung. Allgemeine Interessentenanfrage:

About Eros

What life with Eros looks like

Eros is a small adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Ettlingen in Ettlingen.

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 Eros, answered.

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