Our Adoptable Birds
Every parrot, no matter what species, has a different personality, and our goal is to match every parrot to their new human. Finding a match depends solely on the parrot's needs and what will make them happiest long term. We can almost be considered a "dating service" for parrots and humans, trying to find each one's soul mate.
Because of the complexity of parrots, we no longer list who is available for adoption. We have decided to operate this way to avoid disappointment on the applicant's part, because most people will get their heart set on one parrot in particular, just from seeing a pretty photo or reading their heartfelt story. But the majority of the time, the parrot's personality and his or her needs are not a match to that person. This causes stress for the applicant, because no one likes being told "no", and we really do not like telling people "no". By sending in an application first, we can determine who may be the right fit for your household before your heart gets set on a particular bird, and it saves us much of the heartbreak, time and frustration of declining adoption applications.
Unlike most adoption programs for cats or dogs, adoption is not our primary focus. We are a rescue who specializes in special needs parrots: the injured, abused, neglected, medically fragile, disabled, exceptionally loud and aggressive parrots. These are the parrots who are extremely difficult to find homes for, and also the ones that many rescues do not accept due to time, space and funding restraints. Just as an example, for these special needs birds, one out of 50 applications may be a proper fit.
We do occasionally receive birds that are highly adoptable, but they go quick! So sending in an application with notes about what you may be looking for will get your foot in the door early.
