by Nancy Powell 05 Jul '07

Hi there-- Is there an ASM user out there who could help a new user get up and running? This wonderful volunteer has 4-5 hours a week to devote to data entry which would be an incredible help. Thanks for considering it! --N -- Nancy Powell Operations Manager Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue www.mickaboo.org

[Mickaboo Action] Foster Home needed for a meyers in a bad situation - second request
by Lynn Archer 05 Jul '07

Hi We have a woman who has been on again - off again about surrendering her bird to us. She has a meyers who she keeps covered up most of the day because the bird screams for attention in the afternoon. The more the bird is in the cage without attention the more it screams. It also does not have any other birds for company. Can anyone foster this bird even for a short time while we look for a long term foster home. Lynn

Hi Folks-- There's a pigeon at the Martinez shelter that will be euthanized if we don't retrieve him by Friday. There's no reason for this bird to die. If s/he is a feral bird she can go to the Ohlone Wildlife Center, and if s/he's a domestic bird, Tina Keller can take him/her. Susan Mini has already been to the shelter once this week, and she can't make another trip!!! --N -- Nancy Powell Operations Manager Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue www.mickaboo.org

Hi Everybody-- We really need people who can pick up birds from the Martinez shelter. This shelter is a touch difficult to work with and does euthanize birds if we don't take them. Susan Mini has been making ALL the trips to Martinez and it's wearing her out. Just to give you an idea of what this has meant for Susan-----she lives in Napa and the drive to the Martinez shelter is 1 hour each way. Please contact me off-list if you can help. Remember that an offer to help doesn't mean you have to make trips on a weekly basis! If you could commit to one trip a month that would ease the incredible burden on Susan. If Susan burns out, I'll have to kill myself, so think of this as an errand of mercy for both of us!!! ;-) --N -- Nancy Powell Operations Manager Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue www.mickaboo.org

Hello it me .... I have room and time for either of the birds. I feel ready to work with macaws. I have done very well converting birds diets I could really help with the macaws. I really hope the Lady get well and I will pray for her. In the mean time taking care of the little would be easy.

We will be intaking two friendly Blue & Gold Macaws in the next several weeks. These birds come from different owners but appear to be well socialized. The only initial challenge will be to improve the diets and convert to pellets. If you have ever wanted to have the experience of sharing time with a gorgeous big friendly bird, this might be your chance. Contact me off list if you are interested in fostering.
