Spike

Male · Young · 3 years

Spike is happy for animal sponsors * Lionhead Mix Born: unknown at the animal shelter since: October 4, 2023 male, neutered Spike comes from a suboptimal hobby keeping situation where he was unfortunately kept alone and in a much too small stall. The owner had to go to the hospital, and so he and 25 other rabbits were taken in by us. Spike's teeth need to be regularly checked by a veterinarian and possibly trimmed, as otherwise he develops eye problems. Unfortunately, his tear-nasal canal is not permeable and could not even be flushed by the vet, which means his eyes sometimes water and need to be cleaned. Spike is vaccinated against myxomatosis and RHD and has been successfully treated for coccidia. Currently, he lives with Sayuri in an outdoor setting, and the two will only be rehomed together to a home with plenty of space for running, digging, hiding, and avoiding.

Spike freut sich über Tierpaten * Löwenkopf-Mix Geboren: unbekannt im Tierheim seit: 04.10.2023 männlich , kastriert Spike stammt aus einer suboptimalen Hobbyhaltung, bei der er leider einzeln und in einem viel zu kleinen Stall gehalten wurde. Der Besitzer musste ins Krankenhaus und so wurden er und 25 weitere Kaninchen bei uns aufgenommen. Bei Spike müssen die Zähne regelmäßig tierärztlich kontrolliert und ggf. gekürzt werden, da er ansonsten Probleme mit dem Auge bekommt. Leider ist sein Tränen-Nasen-Kanal nicht durchlässig und konnte auch beim Tierarzt nicht durchgespült werden, weshalb die Augen zeitweise tränen und gesäubert werden müssen. Spike ist gegen Myxomatose und RHD geimpft, ebenso erfolgreich gegen Kokzidien behandelt worden. Derzeit lebt er mit Sayuri zusammen in Außenhaltung und die beiden werden nur gemeinsam vermittelt in ein Zuhause mit viel Platz zum Toben, Buddeln, Verstecken und Ausweichen.

About Spike

What life with Spike looks like

Spike is a young adult rabbit waiting at Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn in Dingolfing.

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 Spike, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Spike?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Spike on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Spike 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 Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Spike already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn lists Spike as vaccinated and neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Spike isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Spike 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.
