Ferdinand & Frederik

European Shorthair · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Ferdinand & Frederik, Widderkaninchen and Zwerghase, 2x male, neutered, born 2023/ Zwerghase born February 1, 2024. The two sweet bucks were dropped off at our shelter when the owner moved into a retirement home. They are very friendly. Unfortunately, they were not neutered or vaccinated. We are now searching for an appropriate home for the two together. They are currently in indoor housing and cannot be kept outdoors. This would only be possible again starting in May 2025. Update from May 1, 2026: Unfortunately, we had to let Ferdinand go. Massive dental problems plagued him repeatedly. We had him operated on and his teeth were constantly trimmed. In the end, he wouldn't eat anything anymore. His friend Frederick is now with Toby. Maybe they can move out together. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Sie sind sehr zutraulich. Leider waren sie nicht kastriert und nicht geimpft. Wir suchen für die 2 nun zusammen ein artgerechtes Zuhause.

About Ferdinand & Frederik

What life with Ferdinand & Frederik looks like

Ferdinand & Frederik is a young adult european shorthair rabbit waiting at Tierheim Sinsheim in Sinsheim.

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 Ferdinand & Frederik, answered.

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