Tamia

Chinchilla · Female · Senior · 9 years

Tamia und Kayara, beide etwa 9 Jahre alt, sind wieder zu uns ins Tierheim zurückgekommen. Die beiden Chinchilla-Damen leben seit vielen Jahren zusammen und verstehen sich sehr gut – deshalb möchten wir sie auch weiterhin nur gemeinsam vermitteln.Tamia ist zunächst etwas vorsichtig und zurückhaltend, taut mit etwas Vertrauen aber auf und zeigt dann ihre neugierige und freundliche Seite. Kayara ist die mutigere von beiden und erkundet neugierig ihre Umgebung.Beide lieben ihr tägliches Sandbad, klettern und springen gerne und freuen sich über abwechslungsreiche Beschäftigung. Gleichzeitig brauchen sie ruhige, geschützte Rückzugsmöglichkeiten, in denen sie tagsüber ungestört schlafen können.Für Tamia und Kayara wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles, artgerechtes Zuhause, in dem sie gemeinsam ihren Lebensabend verbringen dürfen.

About Tamia

What life with Tamia looks like

Tamia is a senior chinchilla animal waiting at BMT Tierheim Elisabethenhof in Germany.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Tamia far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪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 Tamia, answered.

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