Poly

Unknown

Polly came to us as a found animal and unfortunately was not reported missing anywhere, so she is now looking for a new home. When she came to us, her right eye was severely inflamed. She was of course immediately treated by a veterinarian, and it turned out that the inflammation in her eye was probably an old untreated injury. We have now completed the treatment and the inflammation is gone. Since her cornea was injured on the eye, a gray veil has formed in her eye, which is why her vision in that eye is impaired. However, she can see well with her other eye, so she is hardly impaired. Polly is currently still in quarantine because she unfortunately still needs to be treated for parasites. But from the end of August, Polly would be ready for her new home. If Polly has sparked your interest, we look forward to a meaningful email with pictures of the future living situation. We only mediate in species-appropriate keeping (2 rabbits need at least 6m²) and not in single keeping. General inquiries:

Poly kam als Fundtier zu uns und wurde leider nirgends vermisst weshalb sie jetzt ein neues Zuhause sucht. Als sie zu uns kam war ihr rechtes Auge stark entzündet. Bei uns wurde sie natürlich sofort tierärztlich versorgt wobei rauskam das es sich an ihrem Auge vermutlich um eine alte unbehandelte Verletzung handelt. Mittlerweile sind wir mit der Behandlung fertig und die Entzündung ist weg. Da ihre Hornhaut auf dem Auge verletzt war hat sich dort ein grauer Schleier im Auge gebildet weshalb ihre Sehkraft auf dem Auge eingeschränkt ist. Mit ihrem anderen Auge sieht sie aber gut weshalb sie kaum eingeschränkt ist. Poly ist bei uns aktuell noch in der Quarantäne da sie leider noch gegen Parasiten behandelt werden muss. Ab voraussichtlich Ende August wäre Poly dann aber bereit für ihr neues Zuhause. Wenn Poly Ihr Interesse geweckt hat freuen wir uns über eine aussagekräftig Email mit Bildern der zukünftigen Haltung. Wir vermitteln grundsätzlich nur in Artgerechte Haltung (2 Kaninchen benötigen min. 6m²) und in keine Einzelhaltung. Allgemeine Interessentenanfrage: Es sind keine Krankheiten bekannt.

About Poly

What life with Poly looks like

Poly is a small adult animal waiting at Tierschutzverein Ettlingen in Ettlingen.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Poly far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Poly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poly?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Ettlingen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Poly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poly if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a animal can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierschutzverein Ettlingen what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Poly already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a animal comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tierschutzverein Ettlingen directly what is included and what Poly still needs.
What happens if Poly 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 Ettlingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Poly 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.
