Mixed Breed · Male

Update 17.02.26 Taz was neutered today and can therefore move into a mixed group in a few weeks. He showed himself friendly to the other guinea pigs in a pure male group, so there is nothing against a cohabitation in a male apartment. Adoption text Our 11 guinea pigs - boars currently live together in a group and are used to contact with fellow animals. Typically guinea pig-like, they appear quite shy and like to retreat into their hiding places in unfamiliar situations. However, with patience, calmness and loving affection, they gradually gain trust. For the boars, we wish them a suitable home, where they may continue to live in company.

Update 17.02.26 Taz wurde heute kastriert und darf dementsprechend in ein paar Wochen auch in eine gemischte Gruppe ziehen. Er zeigte sich auch in einer reinen Bockgruppe freundlich zu den anderen Schweinchen, so dass nichts gegen eine Vergesellschaftung in eine Herren-WG spricht. Vermittlungstext Unsere 11 Meerschweinchen – Böckchen leben derzeit gemeinsam in einer Gruppe und sind den Kontakt zu Artgenossen gewohnt. Typisch meerschweinchenhaft zeigen sie sich noch recht scheu und ziehen sich bei ungewohnten Situationen gern in ihre Verstecke zurück. Mit Ruhe, Geduld und liebevoller Zuwendung fassen sie jedoch nach und nach Vertrauen. Für die Böcke wünschen wir uns ein artgerechtes Zuhause, in dem sie weiterhin in Gesellschaft leben dürfen. Eine

About Taz

What life with Taz looks like

Taz is an adult mixed breed animal waiting at Tierheim Northeim.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Taz 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

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 Taz, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Taz?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Northeim handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Taz on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Taz if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a animal can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Tierheim Northeim what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Taz already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a animal comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Tierheim Northeim directly what is included and what Taz still needs.
What happens if Taz 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 Northeim early rather than rehoming privately; they know Taz 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.
