Adopt Kongo-Graupapagei

Mixed Breed · Female

This Congo Grey Parrot hen is looking forward to new owners with a big heart. Unfortunately, she has tested positive for Circovirus, which is not a concern in a non-breeding population. She is currently not paired with any of our positive males but can be happily rehomed together with appropriately positive animal(s). As there is no proper documentation of origin, prior approval from your authority must be obtained. We are very happy to assist you with this, and it is usually a minor bureaucratic hurdle.

Diese Kongo-Graupapagei-Henne freut sich auf neue Besitzer mit einem großen Herzen. Sie ist leider positiv auf Circoviren getestet, was im nicht züchtenden Bestand keine Sorgen macht. Sie ist aktuell mit keinem unserer positiven Hähne verpaart, kann aber gerne zusammen mit entsprechend positiven Tier(en) vermittelt werden. Da kein ordentlicher Herkunftsnachweis vorliegt, muss vorab eine Genehmigung Ihrer Behörde eingeholt werden. Dabei sind wir Ihnen sehr gerne behilflich und ist in der Regel eine sehr kleine bürokratische Hürde.

About Kongo-Graupapagei

What life with Kongo-Graupapagei looks like

Kongo-Graupapagei is a large adult mixed breed bird waiting at Federnhilfe in Germany.

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 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 Kongo-Graupapagei, answered.

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