Adopt Tauben

Mixed Breed · Female

9 Tauben are looking for an aviary Our Tauben were stuffed into 2 boxes at the end of July and simply abandoned. (we reported) Out of the total 23 Tauben, 16 now live here with us at the animal shelter and currently inhabit a former cat enclosure. Unfortunately, it has been discovered that one of the pigeons from this group is suffering from avian tuberculosis. The likelihood that all the others also carry this disease is unfortunately very high. For our Tauben here, who are all currently very lively and have shown no symptoms so far, this means they must spend the rest of their lives in an aviary because they are contagious to other birds. We know it will be more than difficult to find a nice place for them, but we still hope there might be pigeon enthusiasts out there who would take care of them. It could be someone who also has animals with avian tuberculosis. If you are seriously interested, please contact us via the contact form. Your name (required field) Please leave this field blank. Your email address (required field) Animal's name Your message Please leave this field blank.

9 Tauben suchen eine Voliere Unsere Tauben wurden Ende Juli in 2 Kartons gestopft und einfach ausgesetzt. (wir berichteten) Von den insgesamt 23 Tauben leben nun noch 16 hier bei uns im Tierheim und bevölkern zur Zeit ein ehemaliges Katzenfreigehege. Leider hat sich heraus gestellt, dass eine Taube aus diesem Bestand an Geflügeltuberkulose erkrankt ist. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass auch alle Anderen diese Krankheit in sich tragen, ist leider sehr groß. Für unsere Tauben hier, die allesamt aktuell sehr munter sind und bislang keine Symptome zeigen, bedeutet das jedoch, dass sie den Rest ihres Lebens in einer Voliere verbringen müssen, denn sie sind für andere Vögel ansteckend. Wir wissen, dass es mehr als schwer werden wird, ein schönes Plätzchen für sie zu finden, aber wir hoffen dennoch, dass es vielleicht irgendwo Taubenliebhaber gibt, die sich ihrer annehmen. Denkbar wäre, dass es Jemand ist, der ebenfalls Tiere mit Geflügeltuberkulose besitzt. Bei ernsthaftem Interesse melden Sie sich bitte unter oder über das Kontaktformular. Ihr Name (Pflichtfeld) Bitte lasse dieses Feld leer. Ihre E-Mail-Adresse (Pflichtfeld) Name des Tieres Ihre Nachricht Bitte lasse dieses Feld leer.

About Tauben

What life with Tauben looks like

Tauben is a adult mixed breed animal waiting at Tierschutzzentrum Ribbesbüttel in Germany.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Tauben 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 Tauben, answered.

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