About Hene

What life with Hene looks like

Hene is a senior bird waiting at Tierheim Aarebrüggli in Grenchen.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hene, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hene?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Aarebrüggli handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Hene on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hene if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a bird can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierheim Aarebrüggli what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Hene already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a bird comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tierheim Aarebrüggli directly what is included and what Hene still needs.
What happens if Hene 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 Aarebrüggli early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hene 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.
