When
circumstances in your life demand change we recognize the emotional
hardship you are forced to deal with and we are here to help.
As
many bird owners do not intend to let go of a dear companioned pet bird
you care for your companion bird and would like to give him/her the
best you can. Most owners who struggle are comforted by knowing where
their bird is going and are fearful never to see their bird again.
After all, most people who must give up a companion bird have lived
with their bird for many years and letting go isn’t always easy.
We are here to help.
- We offer alternatives to
separating your companion bird from you.
- We offer visitations in many
cases and whenever possible and agreeable.
- We offer the option of
adopting your bird to a new family who has been prescreened and
approved for a adopting a bird. Thus, match the most suitable home for
your bird.
- We offer your bird a long term
or permanency with us.
- We offer re-adopting the bird
to you should your situation change whining a short period of time and
we find the bird not to have been neglected or abused while in your
care.
- We will oblige your request
without being euthanized.
With
so many unforeseen events such as short or long term illness, family
members who find themselves left with their relative’s bird(s) after a
passing, financial obligation and or a home foreclosure or a simple
move where parrots will not be allowed can leave parrot owners in a
quandary about their bird’s life and well being.
We offer all the above because we understand that in life change is
inevitable.
Surely parrots experience a
traumatic and difficult adjustment whenever homed to strangers. Any
change' to a new home should be handled with caution and care,
especially for the parrots that have lived alone with a family for
years. That is why, unlike other Bird Rescue Groups and Sanctuaries, we
encourage a leisurely change whenever possible to help minimize the
stress and grief to the parrot as well as to the owner when parting
ways is necessary and does not necessitate an emergency removal.
Therefore, unless it is a must, the division from one human bond must
be made in gradual steps rather than to uproot a treasured parrot from
his well known life and home setting by allowing recognizable people to
remain connected, as well as allowing them to keep their familiar cage
and toys.
Because of the high emotional level parrots have
they too can suffer from depression. There are just too many parrots
suffering from a broken spirit. It is unfortunate that many people lack
the understanding to be able to provide parrots with their much needed
spiritual comfort.
Unlike people, parrots have no councilors
to speak to, cannot take anti-depressants and all they are left with is
themselves and their beautiful plumage which they attack. Certainly
many people may oppose of this belief even if we all know that it is
very comforting to a parrot to be held, caressed and spoken to. The
tone alone that we use can make a huge difference in a parrot’s life.
Again, we are here to help.
Lastly, it is imperative for us not to so easily dismiss the
fact that parrots, more than ever are neglected, abused and mistreated
all over the world with minimal recognition in the public eye.
Unfortunately some take very little care even when their bird dies and
unlike a dog or cat, they will bury their bird in back yards or trashed
in garbage with no regard and dignity for its life.
Please, if
it’s a time for change due to unforeseen circumstances or if your bird
deserves better than you are able to give it. Surrender your bird. We
will accept your reason with no question and provide parrots with a
life they so very much deserve.
