Timmy

Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Timmy was reluctantly surrendered along with two other does due to significant changes in circumstances that made it impossible to care for the animals as well as before. The older, attractive buck rabbit is very curious but prefers to keep a safe distance. As a typical buck, he is usually calm and reserved, unless it's time to compete for his partner or for food. In his new home, he should be provided with a large enclosure or a rabbit room with ample space, as well as opportunities for enrichment and hiding spots. He could either move in with his girlfriend Sissy or there is already a nice lady of similar age waiting for him in the new home.

DE·Show original

Timmy wurde schweren Herzens mit 2 weiteren Kaninchendamen bei uns abgegeben, nachdem die Lebensumstände sich so sehr veränderten, dass man sich nicht weiter so um die Tiere kümmern konnte wie es vorher möglich war. Das ältere, hübsche Widderkaninchen ist sehr neugierig, hält aber gerne etwas Sicherheitsabstand. Widderkaninchen typisch ist er in der Regel in sich ruhend, es sei denn es geht um seine Partnerin, die im streitig gemacht wird oder um Futter. In seinem neuen Zuhause sollte bereits ein großes Gehege oder ein Kaninchenzimmer mit ausreichend Platz, Beschäftigungs- und Versteckmöglichkeiten auf ihn warten. Er könnte entweder mit seiner Freundin Sissy gemeinsam ausziehen oder im neuen Zuhause wartet bereits eine nette Dame ähnlichen Alters auf ihn.

About Timmy

What life with Timmy looks like

Timmy is a large adult rabbit waiting at Tierheim Bonn in Bonn.

Rabbits are social animals — most shelters recommend adopting them in bonded pairs rather than alone. They need fresh hay daily, several hours of out-of-cage time, and rabbit-safe spaces to explore. They live eight to twelve years, longer than many people expect.

🇩🇪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 Timmy, answered.

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