Recommended Posts

I am cross posting this from one of the other forums that I am a member of. The situation is urgent.. if you can help. Please do. Thanks.

 

 

Macaw & Cockatoo Rescue of NM just got a phone call from a local family who is in urgent need of assistance. 11 parrots are in need of rescuing today as they are living in deplorable conditions. Animal control has inspected the property and has stated that if the birds are not removed from the property and put into a better situation within 48 hours, they will be removed by animal control. There are no facilities at animal control to house parrots and many times in the state of New Mexico, if any animal bites, it is seen as unfit to be a pet and is euthanized. We have been asked to assist in this situation to remove the animals today. We have already commited to working with many other birds this month, especially those with special needs and do not have space for these new arrivals. We are looking for foster families or rescue groups in the following (or surrounding) states who may be willing to help us out.

 

New Mexico

Colorado

Nebraska

Illinois

Michigan

Indiana

Ohio

Missouri

Oklahoma

Texas

 

If all goes smoothly, the following birds will be surrendered to Macaw & Cockatoo Rescue of NM by the end of the day:

2 Sulfer Crested Cockatoos

1 Citron Crested Cockatoo

1 Umbrella Cockatoo

1 Scarlet Macaw

1 Lutino Indian Ringnecks (pair)

2 Blue Front Amazons (pair)

2 Mexican Red Headed Amazons

 

Because of the nature of this situation, it will be important for these birds to be with someone already well seasoned about the proper husbandry of parrot care. We do not require that a foster family have species specific experience but it will be helpful in deciding who will be fostered with whom. We are especially seeking families that we have already estabilished good rapor with, as we will not have time to go through an interview process with you. If you are interested in fostering one of these birds please CALL the rescue at (505)994-0505. We ask that anyone interested in fostering be able to provide cage, food (seed, I am sure), toys, and $100 to go toward medical care. These birds will be vetted tomorrow morning at 9:00 am.

 

This situation requires an urgent response.

Thanks in advance!
