Rocky

Male · Young · 3 years

Rocky (Weight approx. 1.5kg, neutered) was dropped off with his brother rabbit Rokko at our shelter due to private and health-related reasons, making further care of the rabbits no longer possible. Unfortunately, Rocky and Rokko had already strongly clashed in their previous home, due to hormones (both unneutered) and lack of space, so we had to separate them upon arrival. As a result, the two look rather "battle-scarred" in their current photos. We are looking for a new home for Rocky starting from July 3, 2026, when his neuter quarantine period ends, with a nice female rabbit. Rocky is affectionate and curious but still a bit shy. Currently, he is housed indoors at our shelter. If you are interested, please contact us via email () and include a few photos of your hutch and your rabbit's vaccination record. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Rocky (Gewicht ca. 1,5kg, männlich kastriert) ist leider wieder zu uns zurück gekommen, da es mit seinem neuen Partnerkaninchen nicht mehr funktionierte. Jetzt suchen wir für ihn eine neue Chance bei einem netten Kaninchenweibchen. Rocky ist lieb und neugierig, aber etwas schüchtern. Aktuell lebt er bei uns in Innenhaltung. Bei Interesse kontaktieren Sie uns bitte per E-Mail () und fügen direkt ein paar Fotos von Ihrem Gehege und vom Impfpass Ihres Kaninchens hinzu.

About Rocky

What life with Rocky looks like

Rocky is a young adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf.

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

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 Rocky, answered.

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