Theo

Mixed Breed · Male · Baby

Hello together, we are looking for a new, lovely home for our 6-year-old Theo (born around May 2020), as his brother and companion passed away suddenly on May 29, 2026. Theo is showing signs of great sadness. Living together with his brother was more or less equal, with occasional squabbles over peas/carrot pieces, rather than Theo asserting himself as the leader. However, he loved to lie cozy together in the hammock under the UV lamp, taking the upper spot. He happily takes nuts from our hand and allows himself to be touched. We have always fed him a mix of leaves and dried vegetables from Hansemann’s team, no commercial mixes. Theo was routinely checked by the vet in mid-April and found to be in top condition. Currently, he weighs 250 g. We would like to transport him one more step for an appropriate, loving home with one or more degus. A small adoption fee and a care agreement would be very much appreciated.

Hallo zusammen, wir suchen für unseren 6-jährigen Theo (geb. ca. Mai 2020) ein neues, schönes Zuhause, da am 29.05.2026 sein Bruder und Kumpel sehr plötzlich verstorben ist. Theo zeigt sich sehr traurig. Das Zusammenleben mit seinem Bruder war bis auf die üblichen Raufereien um Erbsenflocken/Karottenstückchen eher gleichrangig, als dass er sich als Chef gezeigt hätte. Beim kuscheligen Zusammenliegen in der Hängematte unter der UV-Lampe liebte Theo aber den oberen Platz. Er nimmt bei uns Nüsschen gerne aus der Hand und lässt sich auch anfassen. Wir haben immer Blättermischungen und getrocknetes Gemüse von Hansemann’s Team gefüttert, keine Fertigfuttermischungen. Theo wurde Mitte April beim Tierarzt routinemäßig gecheckt und für topfit befunden. Momentan wiegt er 250 g. Wir würden ihn gerne auch ein weiteres Stück für ein artgerechtes, liebevolles Zuhause mit einem oder mehreren Degus fahren. Eine kleine Schutzgebühr und ein Sorgeberechtigungsvertrag läge uns am Herzen.

About Theo

What life with Theo looks like

Theo is a puppy/kitten mixed breed animal waiting at Deguhilfe Süd e.V. in Obermichelbach.

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

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