Hexenbutter

Female · Senior · 12 years

Hexenbutter was dropped off at the animal shelter due to a separation. She is a curious and active ring-tailed lemur who loves to explore her surroundings. Especially around feeding time, she shows a great deal of interest. She enjoys climbing and regularly uses her mist box. In handling, Hexenbutter is generally good-natured and easy to work with, though she can sometimes react nervously. With calm and patient handling, she can be worked with well. For her new home, she wishes for a well-structured enclosure with plenty of hiding spots and climbing opportunities so she can feel safe and express her natural behaviors. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Hexenbutter wurde wegen einer Trennung im Tierheim abgegeben. Sie ist eine neugierige und aktive Kronnatter, die gern ihr Umfeld erkundet. Besonders rund um die Fütterungszeit zeigt sie sich sehr aufmerksam. Sie klettert gerne und nutzt regelmässig ihre Wetbox. Im Handling ist Hexenbutter grundsätzlich gut händelbar, auch wenn sie teilweise etwas nervös reagieren kann. Mit ruhigem und geduldigem Umgang lässt sich gut mit ihr arbeiten. Für ihr neues Zuhause wünscht sie sich ein gut strukturiertes Gehege mit vielen Versteckmöglichkeiten und ausreichend Klettergelegenheiten, damit sie sich sicher fühlt und ihren natürlichen Verhaltensweisen nachgehen kann.

About Hexenbutter

What life with Hexenbutter looks like

Hexenbutter is a senior animal waiting at Zürcher Tierschutz in Zürich.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Hexenbutter far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇨🇭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 Hexenbutter, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hexenbutter?
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 Hexenbutter on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hexenbutter 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 Hexenbutter already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals 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 Hexenbutter 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 Hexenbutter 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.
