Subject: [Mickaboo Admins] need advice re plan B for neglected bird in
Oakland
To: "admins@mickaboo.org"
I found the listing for the home with the neglected bird (either a Hahn's
Macaw or BCC conure) I spoke with the listing agent hoping to offer the
services of our organization as a rescue which would look for a good home
for this bird. Sadly, everything that was reported to MB by the neighbor
seems to be true, the agent was not sympathetic at all, questioned why I
thought the bird was neglected, and totally disputed that the bird was
neglected or in a filthy cage and she wasn't receptive to the the idea of
helping with the real estate transaction by finding the bird another home
so they could clean the home and show it better. She was only interested
in knowing if we wanted to buy the bird. Do we have any contacts with
local press that would put a spotlight on this bird's plight as it's an all
to common occurrence in today's economy?
