[Mickaboo Action] Adoption Fair - vet office publicity
by Robbie 05 Feb '07

05 Feb '07

I know that some of you have been busy getting the word out about our Adoption Fair coming up in just two and a half weeks. Not sure if we've got flyers up in all of the vet's offices. Can you check your local vet office? Addresses and phone numbers are below. I'm attaching a copy of the flyer that you may be able to print and hand deliver, or you can contact Mary Long (copied above); and she can snail mail the hard copy flyer. Thanks much!

[Mickaboo Action] give-away

I have most of a 2 1/2 pound bag of Zupreem natural cockatiel pellets, bought for a bird that ate nothing else and is now on a special medical-ordered diet that she will always be on. Any takers?

[Mickaboo Action] Time for a parakeet push -HELP!!!!
by Michelle Yesney 04 Feb '07

04 Feb '07

All, We are reaching a crisis point here in parakeet-land. DO YOU KNOW ANYONE THAT COULD FOSTER BIRDS FOR US? THIS IS A REAL EMERGENCY. Starting with the big birds first -- we have been slowly acquiring a backlog of ring necks, and there has been very little interest in adopting them. The newest case was just dumped on Kelly Sinn -- a baby (under a year old) yellow bird of still unknown gender that was hauled over to her house in the open back of a pickup truck. The bird does not appear to be tame, although he is still so traumatized, it is hard to tell for sure. Since the owner didn't want him because he made bird noises and threw food, the bird probably hasn't had much personalized attention. We also have a number of birds on our website that have not generated much interest and one, Ladysmith, whose temporary foster family is moving this summer. At the other end of the size spectrum, I have several budgies that are or have been sick that need to be moved from the vet clinics -- including one that should come out of Holly Street today, for which I have no foster homes. AND there are two budgies at the Silicon Valley Humane Society Shelter in Santa Clara that need to come out of the shelter. Please -- if you can think of anyone that can take any of these birds, please let me know. Michelle

[Mickaboo Action] equipment for Adoption Fair
by Robbie 03 Feb '07

03 Feb '07

We need some items for the Adoption Fair on Feb 25. Does anybody have any they can bring? Folding tables to put bird cages, merchandise, and printed materials on; preferably the large kind about 30" by 72", but smaller is OK too. Large poster-type pictures of our Mickaboo birds, especially the ones available for adoption. We had some at the last Adoption Fair, but I'm not sure who took them home. We plan to have a sort of "rope barrier" where the big birds are, so we need some of those things to hold the ropes up like they use in movie theatres. Also, maybe something to use as a rope, like that police tape stuff. Other printed material - we will have lots of room to display large printed material - Ailsa is going to bring her display of the SF Flock; and we could use displays on Bird Care, etc. If you have any of these things you can bring, let me know, and thanks... Robbie

[Mickaboo Action] Help with a budgie
by Michelle Yesney 03 Feb '07

03 Feb '07

The budgie that Pat Dixon was kind enough to provide emergency transport for from the SJ shelter yesterday is recovering. This poor little bird is anemic, has heavy metal poisoning, fragile bones,, and a possible hip fracture. That we know about so far. Thank goodness she's a budgie -- they don't come any tougher. Dr. Ferguson would like to send her home tomorrow. Is there a foster home out there that can offer some very special care to this tiny little bird?
