05 Jan '07

Hi All! We have a beautiful Blue Front Amazon named Bailey, who has been enjoying the comforts of a great foster home. However, the foster family is preparing to move and it would be helpful if Bailey could be transferred to another foster family ASAP. You can read Bailey's story on the website if you are interested. Please contact me if you can help. Claudia Melteff Amazon/Macaw Adoption Coordinator Mickaboo (650) 583-1940

[Mickaboo Action] Foster home for Buster found - but we need a SHORT-TERM (one week-ish) quarantine home!
by Ailsa 05 Jan '07

05 Jan '07

Hi again ~ Great news! We have a long-term foster home for Buster the Sun Conure - but we need someone who can foster him in quarantine for about a week. The long-term foster is paying to have a full blood-workup done on him so she can skip the quarantine process. Dr. F reports that he's a total lovebug, but is definitely a noisy guy. If you think you can manage it for a week until the bloodwork results come back, please let me know? Thanks again! ~ Ailsa Conure Coordinator Mickaboo Cockatiel Rescue Share your support of Mickaboo!

[Mickaboo Action] Foster home fell through: Home needed for Sun conure.
by Ailsa 05 Jan '07

05 Jan '07

Well, the foster home I had lined up for Buster the Sun (turns out he's a Sun not Jenday) Conure fell through. This is me being brutally honest: he needs a home that doesn't share walls (no apartments or townhouses) because (in Dr. Ferguson's words) "his vocalization is excessive." Neighbours who are deaf or who blast their stereos constantly would work well too. ;) Buster is only 1 1/2 years old. He started to vocalize when his former family started ignoring him - apparently the novelty wore off and he want form excessive attention to none. He needs a home with other birds or with someone who is home a lot and who can work with him, teach him to amuse himself, teach him that yelling for attention gets him none but using his indoor voice will get him love and treats. He's currently at Holly Street and is ready to go into a foster home. Can anyone please take him in? Even short-term would be helpful ... I hate it when Mickaboo has to pay boarding fees for a healthy bird that's sitting at the vet. Thanks, ~ Ailsa Conure Coordinator Mickaboo Cockatiel Rescue Share your support of Mickaboo!

[Mickaboo Action] Spanish Interpreter Needed!
by Shannon 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

Hi there, Last week I emailed about needing a Spanish interpreter to assist in the screening process of an applicant located in SF (actually, I said we needed a "translator" but someone kindly informed me that, technically, I should be asking for an "interpreter"). We still haven't been able to find anybody. Could you please let me know if you can help out or possibly know of someone who can? Thanks! -- Shannon Shrewsbury Cockatiel Coordinator Mickaboo Cockatiel Rescue 501(c)3

04 Jan '07

Hi all We'd like to compile a list of people who speak/understand languages other than English so we can know who we might call on if needed. We recently had a need for a Spanish interpreter, but who knows what may come up down the line? If you'll email me offlist if you know another language and are ok with us contacting you if we have need of your help with interpretation, I'll collect the data together for our administrators to pull up as needed.

Fortuna, the little Yellow Collar Macaw that was attacked by the hawk, is recovering despite a hole in his thorax, which allows air to leak out. This will heal. "Tuna's" vet has suggested he might move to a home setting in the next day or so and I would like very much to find a home in the South Bay or San Mateo County, where he can continue a relationship with his current vet in Sunnyvale or one of the other vets nearby. I've attached a picture of this cutie. If you can help please contact me privately. Thanks.

RE: [Mickaboo Action] Spanish Interpreter Needed! - Husband is NativeSpeaker

That sounds like a better match. If husband is willing to help that would be nice since he is a native speaker.
