[Mickaboo Action] Raining BFAs
by CLAUDIA MELTEFF 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi All! I heard there is a chance of rain on the weekend. In the meantime, it is raining Amazons on Mickaboo. I really, really, need a home soon for another Blue Front. None of the Amazons coming in appear to have behavior problems although several have some health issues. The BFA knocking on the door right now is older and mellow. If you'd like to experience life with an amazon, don't wait for better weather. The birds and I need you now. Thanks - Claudia Melteff Amazon/Macaw Adoption Coordinator Mickaboo (650) 583-1940

[Mickaboo Action] Foster home(s) needed for 2 baby Cockatiels
by Shannon 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi everyone, There are two baby Cockatiels who have recently finished being weaned, and they're all set to be moved into foster homes! They're just two little feathered balls of lovin'! They need to go into the same foster home for the first few days but, once we're sure they're okay and eating, we can--and should--move them into separate foster homes. This is because it's very natural for clutch mates to not live together as adults and, perhaps more importantly, there are already many closely-bonded pairs of Cockatiels in Mickaboo's care and pairs are definitely harder to adopt out than single birds. Here's the important catch, though: Both of these babies need to be *strictly* quarantined for their own sake, because adult Cockatiels are commonly carriers of Polyoma after being exposed to it at some point in their lives, and, although it usually doesn't harm adults, it would likely be fatal for the babies. I'm not sure what this means in terms of what the 'quarantine' requirements will be once the usual quarantine period is over, so I'm waiting to hear back from their vet about that. Please let me know ASAP if you can help out! -- Shannon Shrewsbury Cockatiel Coordinator Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue 501(c)3 (C) 650.814.7439 www.mickaboo.org shannon(a)mickaboo.org

[Mickaboo Action] Feb 25: tables for Adoption Fair, transport from San Jose
by Robbie4 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hello Everybody ~ Michelle has a couple of large tables that we can use for the Adoption Fair, but has no way to get them to San Ramon that day (Feb. 25). Is there anybody out there with a pickup truck who could help transport? She lives in San Jose near San Jose State -- good access from either I-280 or US 101. Secondly... we will need several small card tables for the event. I have 3 that I can bring, but we will need quite a few more than that. Anybody else have some? The more tables we can bring, the fewer we need to rent.

[Mickaboo Action] Available Mickaboo Cage
by CLAUDIA MELTEFF 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hi! We are taking in an amazon in the next few days and need to know if anyone has a Mickaboo cage not being used that measures approximately 32"w x 24"d x ? (can be dome top or flat top). Bigger than this is ok as long as the bar spacing is 1" or less. This cage needs to go to the San Jose area. Please contact me or Bill Kennedy if you have something available. Thanks.

Can anyone swing by For The Birds in the next few days and get a picture of the budgies that are still there? We have two budgies without foster homes, and I would like to at least get them on the web site. Thanks.
