Nico

Mixed Breed · Female

Nico is a female rescue rabbit who is now looking for a loving home. Initially, she is still a bit shy and cautious. However, given the time she needs, she gradually thaws and becomes more curious. She is an alert rabbit who enjoys exploring her surroundings and is happy with enough space to hop, dig and discover. Currently, Nico is still being treated for a mite infestation. The treatment is working well and as soon as it is successfully completed, Nico will be able to move into her new home. Of course, the same applies to Nico: she will not be placed in solitary confinement. She is looking for at least one suitable companion with whom she can enjoy her future rabbit life.

DE·Show original

Nico ist eine Fundkaninchendame, die nun auf der Suche nach einem liebevollen Zuhause ist. Anfangs zeigt sie sich noch etwas scheu und vorsichtig. Gibt man ihr jedoch die Zeit, die sie braucht, taut sie nach und nach auf und wird immer neugieriger. Sie ist ein aufgewecktes Kaninchen, das seine Umgebung gerne erkundet und sich über ausreichend Platz zum Hoppeln, Buddeln und Entdecken freut. Selbstverständlich gilt auch für Nico: Sie wird nicht in Einzelhaltung vermittelt. Sie sucht mindestens einen passenden Artgenossen, mit dem sie ihr zukünftiges Kaninchenleben genießen kann.

About Nico

What life with Nico looks like

Nico is a 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 Nico, answered.

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