Kolumbus

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Kolumbus is looking for a new WG. Kolumbus is 2 1/2 years old. The gender (male) is spayed/neutered by a veterinarian. After his last buddy passed away, he is unfortunately now alone. Since we are getting out of degu breeding, we wish to find a new degu group for Kolumbus. Kolumbus is hand-tamed, he is very friendly and lively. He has no health issues. In the degu group where he previously lived, he was very compatible and friendly with the other degus. After the last leader passed away, Kolumbus took over the leadership, which was barely noticeable (no fights, etc.). Kolumbus lives in 13187 Berlin. We are willing to bring Kolumbus to a suitable degu group even if it is further away. We are happy to give away accessories, but not the cage, which is enormous (custom-built) and would need to be dismantled. Our degus always had a lot of space, so Kolumbus is used to having a lot of room. He is very eager for new buddies.

Kolumbus sucht eine neue WG. Kolumbus ist 2 1/2 Jahre alt. Das Geschlecht (männlich) ist tierärztlich gesichert. Nachdem sein letzter Kumpel verstorben ist, ist er leider nun alleine. Da wir aus der Deguhaltung aussteigen wollen, wünschen wir uns für Kolumbus eine neue Degugruppe. Kolumbus ist handzahm, er ist sehr zutraulich und aufgeweckt. Er hat keinerlei gesundheitliche Probleme.In der Degugruppe, in der er bisher lebte, war er sehr verträglich und freundlich mit den anderen Degus. Nachdem der letzte Chef verstorben ist, hatte Kolumbus die Führung übernommen, was kaum zu merken war (keine Kämpfe etc.). Kolumbus wohnt in 13187 Berlin. Wir sind bereit, Kolumbus auch in eine weiter entfernte passende Degugruppe zu bringen. Wir geben gerne auch Zubehör mit ab, aber nicht den Käfig, der ist riesengroß (Eigenbau) und müsste abgebaut werden. Unsere Degus hatten immer sehr viel Auslauf und so ist Kolumbus gewöhnt, viel Platz zu haben. Er sehnt sich sehr nach neuen Kumpels.

About Kolumbus

What life with Kolumbus looks like

Kolumbus is a young adult mixed breed animal waiting at Deguhilfe Süd e.V. in Obermichelbach.

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

🇩🇪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 Kolumbus, answered.

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