Mümmel

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Cute little Mr. Rabbit is looking for a new home! Mümmel is a friendly rabbit with a unique charm of his own. He fully enjoys his rabbit life and has a very special passion: He loves to test the chewability of anything made of wood. Despite having plenty of chewable branches and plenty of enrichment opportunities, even the furnishings occasionally get their share—and it’s no wonder he affectionately goes by the nickname “little beaver.” He’s a curious and cheerful companion who loves being kept busy and eagerly explores his surroundings. From a health perspective, Mümmel has a few minor quirks, but these don’t limit him in his daily life. He shows slight signs of osteoarthritis, though he’s currently managing it well. Additionally, he has a nictitating membrane prolapse in his left eye, which has been present for years and has been thoroughly examined by a veterinarian. This condition doesn’t cause him any problems. His teeth have also remained unremarkable so far. Mümmel receives regular veterinary care, gets vaccinated annually, and his fecal samples are regularly tested as well. Of course, the same rule applies to Mümmel: He must never be kept alone. We’d love for him to have at least one compatible companion rabbit and a home where he can truly be a rabbit.

Niedlicher Kaninchenherr sucht ein neues Zuhause Mümmel ist ein freundlicher Kaninchenherr mit ganz eigenem Charme. Er genießt sein Kaninchenleben in vollen Zügen und hat dabei eine ganz besondere Leidenschaft: Alles, was aus Holz ist, wird gerne einmal auf seine Knabberfestigkeit getestet. Trotz ausreichend Knabberästen und Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten muss auch die Einrichtung gelegentlich daran glauben und nicht umsonst trägt er liebevoll den Spitznamen „kleiner Biber“. Er ist ein neugieriger und lebensfroher Begleiter, der gerne beschäftigt ist und seine Umgebung aufmerksam erkundet. Gesundheitlich bringt Mümmel ein paar kleine Besonderheiten mit, die ihn im Alltag aber nicht einschränken. Er zeigt leichte Arthroseanzeichen, kommt damit aktuell aber gut zurecht. Zusätzlich hat er am linken Auge einen Nickhautvorfall, der bereits seit Jahren besteht und tierärztlich abgeklärt wurde. Dieser bereitet ihm keine Probleme. Auch seine Zähne waren bisher unauffällig. Mümmel wird regelmäßig tierärztlich betreut, jährlich geimpft und Kotuntersuchungen wurden ebenfalls regelmäßig durchgeführt. Selbstverständlich gilt auch für Mümmel:Er darf nicht allein gehalten werden.Für ihn wünschen wir uns mindestens einen passenden Artgenossen und ein Zuhause, in dem er Kaninchen sein darf.

About Mümmel

What life with Mümmel looks like

Mümmel is a small adult mixed breed rabbit waiting at Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren in Ibbenbüren.

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 Mümmel, answered.

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