Sam

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Sam, the curious and lively rabbit lady, is looking for a new home. She is approximately 2-3 years old and is always very interested in exploring her surroundings and seeing what's going on around her. She is initially a bit cautious around people and needs a moment to gain trust. However, given the necessary time and approached calmly, she quickly thaws and shows her curious and open-minded side. Sam has a small health issue. She has problems with her teeth, which will need to be regularly checked and monitored in the future. That's why we are looking for people who are willing to reliably continue the necessary veterinary care. Of course, the same applies to Sam: she must not be kept alone. We would like her to have at least a suitable companion, with whom she can enjoy her rabbit life together.

Die neugierige und aufgeweckte Kaninchendame Sam ist auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause. Sie ist ca. 2-3 Jahre alt und immer sehr interessiert daran, ihre Umgebung zu erkungen und zu schauen, was um sie herum passiert. Gegenüber Menschen ist sie anfangs noch etwas vorsichtig und braucht einen kleinen Moment, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Gibt man ihr die nötige Zeit und begegnet ihr in Ruhe, taut sie jedoch schnell auf und zeigt ihre neugierige und aufgeschlossene Seite. Gesundheitlich bringt Sam eine kleine Baustelle mit. Sie hat Probleme mit ihren Zähnen, die auch in Zukunft regelmäßig kontrolliert und im Blick behalten werden müssen. Deshalb suchen wir Menschen, die bereit sind, die notwendige tierärztliche Betreuung zuverlässig fortzuführen. Selbstverständlich gilt auch für Sam: Sie darf nicht allein gehalten werden. Für sie wünschen wir uns mindestens einen passenden Artgenossen, mit dem sie gemeinsam ihr Kaninchenleben genießen kann.

About Sam

What life with Sam looks like

Sam is a young adult mixed breed rabbit waiting at Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren in Ibbenbüren.

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 Sam, answered.

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