Melanzana

Female · Young · 1 year

Margherita, Marinara und Melanzana kamen zu uns ins Tierheim, nachdem die Tochter ihrer bisherigen Familie ausgezogen war. Die drei Rennmäuse verstehen sich sehr gut und sind ein eingespieltes Trio. Sie sind aktiv, erkunden neugierig ihre Umgebung und buddeln für ihr Leben gerne. Besonders Margherita ist immer an vorderster Stelle, wenn es etwas Spannendes zu entdecken gibt. Marinara und Melanzana sind noch etwas schüchtern und beobachten lieber erst einmal aus sicherer Entfernung. Mit etwas Geduld und einer ruhigen Annäherung können aber auch die beiden noch mehr Vertrauen fassen. Für das aufgeweckte Trio wünschen wir uns ein gemeinsames, artgerechtes Zuhause mit viel Platz zum Buddeln und Entdecken sowie Menschen, die ihnen Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen.

About Melanzana

What life with Melanzana looks like

Melanzana is a young adult animal waiting at Zürcher Tierschutz in Zürich.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Melanzana 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 Melanzana, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Melanzana?
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 Melanzana on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Melanzana 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 Melanzana 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 Melanzana 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 Melanzana 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.
