Laura & Nancy (E.c. positiv)

Female · Young · 3 years

Laura & Nancy (ca. 2,9kg & 2,7kg) were secured by the veterinary office along with other rabbits due to poor husbandry. The other rabbits have already been rehomed. As Laura & Nancy get along very well, we would like to place them together in a new home. They are curious and friendly, but do not like to be handled very often. As Laura belongs to the breed "Widder," special attention must be paid to her hearing, as this breed is at a high risk for ear infections. She has already been treated once. Additionally, Laura tends to have overgrown teeth, so she should be regularly presented to a veterinarian for check-ups and, if necessary, corrections. Nancy sometimes scans with her head and closes her right eye, but no medical cause could be found. We assume that the behavioral observations are related to her white fur, as she also has reddish-glowing pupils. At the moment, Laura & Nancy are in protected outdoor housing. If interested, please contact us via email () and include a few photos of your rabbit enclosure directly.

DE·Show original

Laura & Nancy (ca. 2,9kg & 2,7kg) wurden zusammen mit weiteren Kaninchen durch das Veterinäramt aus schlechter Haltung sichergestellt. Die anderen Kaninchen konnten bereits vermittelt werden. Da sich Laura & Nancy sehr gern haben, möchten wir sie gemeinsam in ein neues Zuhause vermitteln. Sie sind neugierig und freundlich. Angefasst werden möchte sie jedoch eher selten. Da Laura der Rasse "Widder" angehört, muss stets besonderes Augenmerk auf ihre Gehörgänge gelegt werden, da diese Qualzucht ein starkes Risiko für Ohrenentzündungen mitsich bringt. Bisher musste sie bereits einmal behandelt werden. Zudem neigt Laura leider zu Zahnspitzen, so dass sie regelmäßig einem Tierarzt zur Kontrolle und ggf. Korrektur vorgestellt werden sollte. Nancy "scannt" manchmal mit dem Kopf und kneift das rechte Auge zu, medizinisch konnte keine Ursache gefunden werden. Wir gehen davon aus, dass die Verhaltensbeobachtungen mit der weißen Farbe zusammenhängen, da sie auch rötlich schimmernde Pupillen hat. Bei Albinos ist das "scannen" nicht unüblich. Zur Zeit wohnen Laura & Nancy in geschützter Außenhaltung. Bei Interesse kontaktieren Sie uns bitte per E-mail () und fügen direkt ein paar Fotos von Ihrem Gehege hinzu.

About Laura & Nancy (E.c. positiv)

What life with Laura & Nancy (E.c. positiv) looks like

Laura & Nancy (E.c. positiv) is a small young adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf.

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: Laura has chronic dental issues requiring regular vet checks and ear infection risk due to lop ears. Nancy shows scanning behavior and squints right eye, possibly related to albinism. E.c. positive status. Must be adopted together.

🇩🇪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 Laura & Nancy (E.c. positiv), answered.

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