Most shelters are very dog and cat focused and birds and other “exotic” companion animals often don’t receive the same level of care nor see the same rate of adoptions. Despite being over-stretched ourselves, we knew that saying no to these three birds would mean they would be killed. The shelter had already extended their time and there were no other options available. We had one potential adopter lined up and got creative to figure out foster care possibilities and said yes, yes we would take on the responsibility for saving these three birds lives. We are so glad. These three little former orphans- flightless Roller George, super sweet Sally and tame unreleasable feral pigeon Amity are thriving, grateful to be alive. Thank you for helping MickaCoo to help birds like these.
