This is a truly outstanding organization. I now have foster homes for Scooter, Shorty, and Sarge. Anyone ready for a 16 year old Blue & Gold macaw named Huggy? He has only had one owner, who died recently. Huggy was well loved, fed an inadequate diet, and due to illness in family hasn't had much exercise or socialization for a while. He could make your day . I'm taking dibs. Thanks.

Ah, we are being struck with Macaw Madness. We just eeked by recently when a great foster home in the Sacto area did an inhouse bird shuffle to make room for Calvin and Spenser, two macaws from the Sacto SPCA. Now we have a surrenderer in the South Bay, whose father died, leaving three macaws - all about 16 years old (Blue & Gold, Severe and Military). These birds will be challenges - diet conversion, socialization, etc. And then the owner of a plucked little Severe named Scooter, who loves to talk and eat peanuts, finally decided to surrender her too.
And then we have the macaws that have been in foster care for a while - just waiting patiently for a chance to get it right the next time.
Macaws are wonderful - intelligent and sensitive and very entertaining and messy and loud - a lot like a 3 year old kid, who just never gets any older. Want to try one, two, three - let me know.
I always say I'm desperate and I always am. Please help me help these big guys (and some little ones) get to a safe and loving place. Time is short to make something happen for Scooter, Huggy, Shorty, Sarge. . . .
