[Mickaboo Action] Foster homes still needed!
by Ailsa 27 Jun '07

27 Jun '07

Hi all ~ I'm still looking for a foster home for Dusty the Dusky Conure - and Maggie May who, it turns out, is a Patagonian Conure. Maggie is the one who has some bad history - she was abused in her prior home - her surrender questionnaire reads "things were thrown at her, she was only fed seeds, had no toys or positive human interactions and her owner thought it was fun to lunge at her and scare her ... she didn't even have a stick to sit on." She was rescued by her current owner, but then they went through some very bad times (the bird wasn't hurt during this time - it was a situational issue that involved the prior home). All this lead to now where her human just isn't up to giving Maggie the love, affection, and out-time that she needs. Other info in the surrender paperwork is that Maggi has problems with her feet, so can't hold food in them while she eats, is about 15 years old, and right now rarely gets time out of her cage - and when she does it's only for a half-hour or so. I'd love to see both of these birds in a foster home that can give them plenty of out-time, attention, and love. Please let me know if you have the time and love to spare for either of these birds, ~ Ailsa -- Conure Coordinator - Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue http://www.mickaboo.org http://www.cafepress.com/mickaboo "Be the Change You Wish to See in the World." ~ Gandhi

[Mickaboo Action] Two foster homes needed!
by Ailsa 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hi all ~ I have a Jenday (or possibly a Sun) conure coming in soon who will need a foster home. Her surrenderer loves her, but they have a past together that makes it hard for her to give the bird the attention and time she deserves. I'm not at liberty to say more about the past, but I would LOVE to have a foster home ready to give this bird the love and attention and adoration she deserves as soon as the surrender paperwork arrives. Please let me know if you have room in your heart and life for this little one while we look for a forever home? I also have a Dusky Headed Conure fostering with his surrenderer. He should be up on the website soon, his name is Dusty and he sounds like a doll. This one can be a bit on the noisy side, but I think it may be due to not getting enough time out of his cage and/or being bored. Maybe someone would take on teaching this little one to forage for his food, how to play with toys, and how to use an indoor voice? Please let me know if either of these birds sounds like one to whom you'd like to give some time and attention.
