Finding Parrots A Home
Our main focus is to take in surrendered parrots. We do not have the legal authority to confiscate any birds, so we rely on voluntary surrenders. We provide the needed medical care and rehabilitation via our extensive network of volunteers, fosters and team members with varying skill sets. If the parrot is ready to join another family, they will be featured in our adoption listings. For more information on our surrendering process, please visit the FAQ page. Families are chosen based on their knowledge and whether their setup is appropriate for the specific bird. We also work with various private and public sanctuaries to find the best possible environment for parrots that are not used to a home environment. We also assist with placing stray parrots into foster care and networking these found birds on platforms such as our own social media and the ParrotAlert database to help locate their rightful owners. Stray parrots are never adoptable, no matter how long they remain unclaimed. We place them in long-term foster care scenarios and continue to actively network them until their owners are located. We want strays to be at home with their original families, no matter how long it takes. This is a duty we take very seriously.
Education
By assisting with behavioural issues, owners are less likely to surrender their companion birds for re-homing. Parrots are exotic creatures and have very specific dietary and habitat needs. Our team publishes articles and infographics regularly and offer advice to the best of our abilities. We dedicate two days per week in our social media schedule to educational content.
Rehabilitation
The key to successful and sustainable animal welfare work is to both increase the number of animals moving out of rescue into permanent homes and, perhaps more importantly, reduce the number coming in. We all know the statistic that pet birds are the third most popular pet but the most frequently surrendered. What if we could turn this around by addressing the reasons birds are surrendered in the first place? There are many ways to do this and one of the ways is through our Fostering and Rehabiliation Services.
