Peanut

Male · Young · 3 years

Peanut is a 2 year old dwarf lop and an exceptionally sweet and affectionate little guy. As soon as you enter his enclosure, he comes running over out of curiosity. After all, the visitor might have come to pet him. Peanut especially loves being stroked on the head, and he also likes to initiate pats himself. However, when it comes to his vegetables, he is quite demanding: The little gourmet is quite picky and not everything that is served meets his expectations. We wish for Peanut a suitable home with enough space, compatible rabbit companionship, and people who are willing to give him long head-stroking sessions.

DE·Show original

Peanut ist ein 2 Jahre alter Zwergwidder und ein ausgesprochen lieber und zutraulicher kleiner Kerl. Sobald man sein Gehege betritt, kommt er direkt neugierig angelaufen. Schließlich könnte der Besuch ja zum Streicheln gekommen sein. Besonders liebt Peanut es, am Kopf gekrault zu werden, und seine Streicheleinheiten fordert er auch gerne selbst ein. Bei seinem Gemüse zeigt er sich dagegen deutlich anspruchsvoller: Der kleine Feinschmecker ist ziemlich wählerisch und längst nicht alles, was ihm serviert wird, entspricht seinen Vorstellungen. Für Peanut wünschen wir uns ein artgerechtes Zuhause mit ausreichend Platz, passender Kaninchengesellschaft und Menschen, die für ausgiebige Kopfkraul-Einheiten zu haben sind.

About Peanut

What life with Peanut looks like

Peanut is a small young adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Plattling in Plattling.

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 Peanut, answered.

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