Adopt Twix & Mary Lou

Unknown

Hello World, We are Twix and Mary Lou! We were both found in poor condition and have learned to know and love each other here at the animal shelter. We are two curious female rabbits and we always look forward to fresh greens being brought to us. We are the best of friends, cuddle a lot, and do everything together. Therefore, we are looking for a shared home exclusively. Twix had a broken shoulder, which has healed well and no longer causes her any problems. Additionally, we are both E. Cuniculi positive*. We are looking for a shared outdoor home with plenty of space to hop, dig, and play. We would be happy to be integrated into an existing E. Cuniculi group or to stay as a pair. Do you want to give us a home? Then please get in touch! Your Twix & Mary Lou *E. Cuniculi is a lifelong, often latent infection that can flare up under stress or immune weakness. The disease primarily affects the central nervous system, kidneys, and eyes, but can also damage other organs. Approximately 39-60% of domestic rabbits are affected. Our veterinarians are happy to advise you before adoption. If you are interested in our pets, we warmly invite you to visit us at our adoption times at the animal shelter.

Hallo Welt,Wir sind Twix und Mary Lou!Wir wurden jeweils in schlechtem Zustand gefunden und haben uns hier im Tierheim kennen und lieben gelernt. Wir sind zwei neugierige Kaninchendamen und freuen uns immer, wenn uns jemand frisches Grünzeug vorbeibringt. Wir sind die allerbesten Freundinnen, kuscheln viel und machen alles gemeinsam. Daher suchen wir ausschließlich ein gemeinsames Zuhause.Twix hatte eine gebrochene Schulter, diese ist gut verheilt und macht ihr keine Probleme mehr. Außerdem sind wir beide E. Cuniculi positiv*.Wir suchen ein gemeinsames Zuhause, gerne in Außenhaltung, mit viel Platz zum Hoppeln, Graben und Haken schlagen. Gerne können wir in eine bestehende EC-Gruppe integriert werden oder aber auch zu Zweit bleiben.Willst du uns ein Plätzchen schenken?Dann melde dich bitte!Deine Twix & Mary Lou*E. Cuniculi ist eine lebenslange, oft latente Infektion, die bei Stress oder Immunschwäche akut ausbrechen kann.

Gerne beraten unsere Tierärztinnen vor einer Adoption. Bei Interesse an unseren Kleintieren laden wir Sie herzlich zu unseren Vergabezeiten ins Tierheim ein.

About Twix & Mary Lou

What life with Twix & Mary Lou looks like

Twix & Mary Lou is a adult rabbit waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Twix & Mary Lou, answered.

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