Adopt Kaninchen

Mixed Breed · Unknown

The charming black Kaninchen in the photo stands in for numerous Kaninchen (various breeds, both sexes, and different ages) who are waiting at our animal shelter in Vösendorf for a new home. It should be noted that Kaninchen require a lot of space (at least 4 m² for two animals) and are social, so they must be kept at least in pairs.

Das entzückende schwarze Kaninchen am Foto steht stellvertretend für zahlreiche Kaninchen (unterschiedliche Rassen, beide Geschlechter und unterschiedliches Alter) die bei uns im Tierschutzhaus in Vösendorf auf ein neues Zuhause warten. Bedacht werden sollte, dass Kaninchen viel Platz benötigen (mind. 4 m² für 2 Tiere) und gesellig sind, daher zumindest zu zweit gehalten werden müssen.

About Kaninchen

What life with Kaninchen looks like

Kaninchen is a small adult mixed breed rabbit waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires minimum 4 square meters space for 2 animals and must be kept in pairs due to social nature

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kaninchen, answered.

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