Adopt Rici

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Rici came to our animal shelter together with his partner Kiki, as their owners had to move and could not or did not want to take the two with them. The handsome cockatiel has quickly settled in with us and will now spend his golden years at our animal shelter. Rici would greatly appreciate a sponsorship that allows him to have a nice and worry-free life with us. Leisibachstrasse 16037 Root041 450 00 Bank details animal shelter at the Ron Monday - Friday:

Worüber sich Rici sonst noch freut: Rici kam gemeinsam mit seiner Partnerin Kiki zu uns ins Tierheim, da ihre Halter umziehen mussten und die beiden nicht mitnehmen konnten oder wollten. Der hübsche Wellensittichhahn hat sich schnell bei uns eingelebt und darf nun seinen Lebensabend bei uns im Tierheim verbringen. Rici würde sich sehr über eine Patenschaft freuen, die ihm weiterhin ein schönes und sorgenfreies Leben bei uns ermöglicht.

About Rici

What life with Rici looks like

Rici is a young adult mixed breed bird waiting at Tierheim an der Ron.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rici, answered.

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