Pennantsittich

Mixed Breed · Male

I am a male Pennantsittich with a positive Circovirus test. Clinically, I am completely unremarkable but can potentially infect other birds. The infection is typically harmless for older animals, but young ones can become severely ill. Therefore, I cannot be placed in a breeding flock. Who has a suitable flock for me? I look forward to new social contacts soon.

Ich bin ein männlicher Pennantsittich mit positivem Circovirus-Nachweis. Klinisch bin ich völlig unauffällig, kann aber grundsätzlich andere Vögel anstecken. Die Infektion ist für ältere Tiere in der Regel völlig ungefährlich, aber Jungtiere können massiv erkranken. Daher darf ich in keinen reproduzierenden Bestand. Wer hat einen passenden Schwarmanschluss für mich? Freue mich über baldige neue Sozialkontakte.

About Pennantsittich

What life with Pennantsittich looks like

Pennantsittich is a adult mixed breed bird waiting at Federnhilfe in Germany.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇩🇪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 Pennantsittich, answered.

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