[Mickaboo Action] Budgie dilemma
by Michelle Yesney 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

I cannot believe I've had no takers for Cecil and Rowan, two tame boy budgies with an unbelievably cute picture on the website. Thanks to some very fancy tapdancing by Patty Blau and the surrenderer, we have accomplished their transfer to Mickaboo -- they're now temporarily with Patty Blau, in somewhat tight quarters in San Rafael. The plan was for them to move to SF this weekend, to be fostered by Ursula Heise. Ursula was having her floors done and (as happens on occasion) the work didn't get done on time, and probably won't be done until Tuesday. She can fit them in, but she doesn't have separate quarantine space. I am asking for two things: if any of you know of someone that was interested in adopting tame budgies, this is a good time to mention it. Second, is there someone that could/would foster these really wonderful budgies that has quarantine space available now? As a final alternative, could anyone bring them to me (in San Jose)? HELP!!!

I know it just seems like yesterday that we talked about foster homes for birds. So since we talked 5 new amazons have come in and another is expected this coming Wednesday. We didn't have any of the right sized caging but thanks to Bill Kennedy for kicking off a cage campaign and thanks to many of you for kicking some money right back at him, today he is going to buy some cages. My garage seems to have a revolving door - as soon as I put one amazon in a foster home and scrub the cage there is another occupant waiting to come in. And the garage was supposed to be a stop gap measure. I don't want our birds in a garage. For the most part these are really sweet birds that have been subjected to a lot of neglect, poor diet, no baths or medical care, no grooming, and they come in as dismal little sacks of dull feathers. In some instances the birds have experienced terrible treatment at the hands of the individuals who were responsible for their care taking and the birds have learned to react with fear and anger. But almost overnight with a clean cage in a warm safe environment, some food and fresh water, a couple toys, some mellow music and a little interaction you can see a flicker of life and energy begin to surface. To offer the bare necessities to these little wild spirits is so simple. And the gift you get back is to see physical and mental renewal in a creature who has spend untold hours sitting in a bad space waiting. If you would like to receive this gift yourself just decide to foster. It doesn't have to be an amazon - just any needy bird. However, if I have convinced you to help some of these amazons please let me know. I have a couple of birds for whom I really need a plan SOON. Help me help the birds! We can do this.

[Mickaboo Action] Foster homes *still* needed!
by Ailsa 14 Mar '07

14 Mar '07

I think I have foster homes available for Louie the GCC and Pierre the Dusky Conure - although I'm not 100% sure on those. However, I definitely dostill need a home for Possum the Patagonian Conure. Here's some more info on her: Possum is a well-socialized Patagonian conure. Adopted 5 years ago from the person who hand raised her from an egg. She's a bit spoiled and likes a lot of attention. She likes showers and puts herself to bed at sunset. She loves music and being sung to. She is a very pretty bird, no plucking ever - she is very sweet and loves to be kissed on top of the head and whispered to and she whispers back, all very intimate, so very social - unknown how she is with kids, probably would be a little shy of them. She comes from a loving environment, and I'd love to see her in a good foster home so that she stays well socialized - that will make it a lot easier to find her a forever home. Please let me know if you can give Possum a foster home. Or if you're interested in fostering Louie the GCC or Pierre the Dusky Conure, let me know that too - I'm not sure my other offers are 100% confirmed yet and it would be wonderful to have backup offers!

[Mickaboo Action] See California and make money for Mickaboo!
by Nancy Powell 13 Mar '07

13 Mar '07

Hi there-- Anyone making a trip to LA by car? Michele Raffin needs to have 4 small birds picked up in LA and driven back up here. She will pay $100 toward gas and will donate $400 to Mickaboo for delivery of the birds to her in Los Altos Hills. Hope someone can do it! $400 would really help with our vet bills........ ---Nancy -- Nancy Powell Operations Manager Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue www.mickaboo.org
