Mario

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Mario was born at our animal shelter on 13.11.2025, the mother was a black Angora mix female and the father was very likely a wild rabbit. The wild in him is very noticeable and he is accordingly rather reserved but despite that, curious in contrast to his brother Luigi. He is also a real escape king and easily jumps over enclosures. Now Mario is looking for a kind and nice rabbit female. There is also the possibility that he can move out with his brother Luigi, who currently gets along very well with him. He is currently living indoors but would like to get used to outdoor housing as soon as the temperatures allow, as he is more of a half-wild rabbit and not really suited for apartment living.

DE·Show original

Mario wurde bei uns im Tierheim am 13.11.2025 geboren, die Mutter war eine schwarze Angora-Mix-Dame und der Vater sehr wahrscheinlich ein Wildkaninchen. Das wilde in ihm merkt man ihm sehr stark an und er ist dementsprechend recht zurückhaltend aber im Gegensatz zu seinem Bruder Luigi trotzdem neugierig. Er ist auch ein wahrer Ausbrecherkönig und springt mühelos über Gehegewände. Nun ist Mario auf der Suche nach einer lieben netten Kaninchen-Dame. Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, dass er mit seinem Bruder Luigi zusammen ausziehen kann, derzeit verstehen sie sich noch hervorragend. Zurzeit lebt er in der Innenhaltung möchte aber sobald es die Temperaturen zulassen gerne an die Außenhaltung gewöhnt werden, da er als Halbwilder eher nicht für die Wohnungshaltung gemacht ist.

About Mario

What life with Mario looks like

Mario is a small young adult mixed breed rabbit waiting at Tierheim und Tierschutz Recklinghausen e.V. in Recklinghausen.

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.

🇩🇪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 Mario, answered.

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