Stephanie 🦜

Female · Young · 3 years

Stephanie is a rose-ringed parakeet who came to us as a found animal, so a complete history is not available. The ring year 2024 suggests she is about two years old; however, it cannot be said with certainty whether she is a female, as no genetic test is available. She is not tame, but remains close to humans during cleaning. We would like to find a quiet, reliable home for Stephanie, ideally with a partner or in an existing flock, so she can receive the social interaction she needs. She needs an appropriate enclosure with enough space, opportunities for exercise such as climbing and playing, and a balanced diet specifically for rose-ringed parakeets. A patient, loving environment that gives her time to develop would be wonderful; regular veterinary check-ups and good feeding will complement her new home.

DE·Show original

Stephanie ist ein Rosenköpfchen, das als Fundtier zu uns kam, daher liegt eine vollständige Vorgeschichte nicht vor. Das Ringjahr 2024 lässt vermuten, dass sie etwa zwei Jahre alt ist; ob es sich um ein Weibchen handelt, kann jedoch nicht mit Sicherheit gesagt werden, da kein Gentest vorliegt. Sie ist nicht handzahm, bleibt aber bei der Reinigung stets in der Nähe des Menschen. Für Stephanie wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges, zuverlässiges Zuhause, idealerweise bei einem Partner oder in einem bereits bestehenden Schwarm, damit sie die artgerechte Gesellschaft erhält, die sie braucht. Sie braucht ein artgerechtes Gehege mit genügend Freiraum, Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten wie Kletter- und Spielangebote sowie eine ausgewogene Ernährung speziell für Rosenköpfchen. Geduldiges, liebevolles Umfeld, das ihr Zeit gibt, sich weiter zu entwickeln, wäre wunderbar; regelmäßige tierärztliche Checks und eine gute Fütterung ergänzen ihr neues Zuhause.

About Stephanie 🦜

What life with Stephanie 🦜 looks like

Stephanie 🦜 is a young adult bird waiting at Tierheim Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf.

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 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 Stephanie 🦜, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Stephanie 🦜?
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 Stephanie 🦜 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Stephanie 🦜 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Düsseldorf 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 Stephanie 🦜 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 Stephanie 🦜 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 Stephanie 🦜 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.
