Adopt Happy

Female · Baby · 10 months

Doc, Dopey, and Happy were born at our shelter. Unfortunately, two of the siblings had to be separated as they no longer got along with each other. Doc had several injuries on his back and needed some days of pain medication. Since he really enjoyed this, the treatment was quite easy. Consequently, he quickly forgave everyone. Now, the clingy, curious, and sometimes feisty, active rabbits are looking for a new home in a spacious enclosure with plenty of running room and opportunities to burrow. If it fits better, we would also place a rabbit individually with a compatible partner.

Doc, Dopey und Happy sind im Tierheim geboren. Leider mussten zwei der Geschwister getrennt werden, da sich nicht mehr alle miteinander verstanden haben. Doc hatte verschiedene Verletzungen am Rücken und benötigte einige Tage Schmerzmittel. Da er diese jedoch sehr gern mochte, war die Behandlung ganz easy. Entsprechend schnell hat er alles verziehen. Nun suchen die anhänglichen, neugierigen und teilweise frechen, aktiven Kaninchen ein neues Zuhause in einem grosszügigen Gehege mit viel Auslauf und Möglichkeiten zum Buddeln. Falls es besser passt, würden wir auch ein Kaninchen einzeln zu einem passenden Gspändli vermitteln.

About Happy

What life with Happy looks like

Happy is a small puppy/kitten rabbit waiting at Zürcher Tierschutz in Zürich.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Happy, answered.

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