Vivi

Female

Vivi is a lively budgie who brings a lot of energy to everyday life. Active, agile and nimble, she loves to explore her surroundings with curiosity. She hardly misses anything, as Vivi is attentive, vigilant and quite clever. With her cheeky nature and lively personality, she is guaranteed to provide entertainment! The little feathered lady is sociable, cheerful and knows how to make herself heard. When Vivi has something to say, it can get quite loud. However, in unfamiliar situations, she can sometimes be startled and needs a moment to get used to new things. We wish Vivi a loving home with suitable companions, where she can flutter, chirp and live out her curious, cheerful personality to her heart's content.

DE·Show original

Vivi ist eine aufgeweckte Wellensittich-Dame, die ordentlich Schwung in den Alltag bringt. Aktiv, flink und wendig ist sie gerne unterwegs und erkundet neugierig ihre Umgebung. Dabei entgeht ihr kaum etwas, denn Vivi ist aufmerksam, wachsam und ganz schön schlau. Mit ihrer frechen Art und ihrem lebhaften Wesen sorgt sie garantiert für Unterhaltung! Die kleine Federdame ist gesellig, fröhlich und weiss sich auch stimmlich bemerkbar zu machen. Wenn Vivi etwas zu erzählen hat, kann es durchaus einmal etwas lauter werden. Bei unbekannten Situationen zeigt sie sich hingegen gelegentlich schreckhaft und braucht einen Moment, um sich an Neues zu gewöhnen. Für Vivi wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause mit passenden Artgenossen, in dem sie nach Herzenslust flattern, zwitschern und ihre neugierige, lebensfrohe Persönlichkeit ausleben kann.

About Vivi

What life with Vivi looks like

Vivi is an adult bird waiting at Tierheim beider Basel in Basel.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

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 Vivi, answered.

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