Merle

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Merle is a sweet dwarf rabbit who came to us because her owner could no longer care for her. She had recently lost her longtime rabbit partner and is now alone. That's why we urgently want a loving new home for Merle where she can find a suitable companion. Rabbits are very social animals and need the company of a partner to feel completely at ease. We are looking for a suitable environment with plenty of space for Merle to hop, dig and relax. Who will give this little rabbit lady the chance to start anew and find a new friend by her side?

DE·Show original

Merle ist ein liebes Zwergkaninchen, das zu uns kam, weil sich ihre Besitzerin nicht mehr um sie kümmern konnte. Kurz zuvor hatte sie bereits ihren langjährigen Kaninchenpartner verloren und ist nun allein. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für Merle ganz dringend ein liebevolles neues Zuhause, in dem bereits ein passender Artgenosse auf sie wartet. Kaninchen sind sehr soziale Tiere und brauchen die Gesellschaft eines Partners, um sich rundum wohlzufühlen. Für Merle suchen wir eine artgerechte Haltung mit viel Platz zum Hoppeln, Buddeln und Entspannen. Wer schenkt der kleinen Kaninchendame die Chance auf einen Neuanfang und einen neuen Freund an ihrer Seite?

About Merle

What life with Merle looks like

Merle is a young adult mixed breed rabbit waiting at Tierasyl Chemnitz in Germany.

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 Merle, answered.

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