Any Volunteers Available to Show Birds at SF Stonestown Pet Food Express this Sunday?
by Elizabeth Young 25 Feb '11

25 Feb '11

Hello! Rocket Dog Rescue <http://www.rocketdogrescue.org/> does a weekly adoption fair every Sunday at the Stonestown Pet Food Express in SF and Mickaboo & MickaCoo are invited to participate! Is there any one willing and able to attend this Sunday 2/27? (Hours are from 12-5 but even going for a portion of that would be great. They provide the table, you bring birds and brochures.) Not only is it fun and well attended but there are *PUPPIES!!!* Please let me know if anybody is going so that I can let our hosts, Rocket Dog, know. (AdoptKings(a)gmail.com) Thank you! e -- Elizabeth * * Until they all have homes, don't buy, don't breed- adopt. www.RescueReport.org www.MickaCoo.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGjyooh3Yo0

Our Lab Pigeon Rescue Story Got Picked Up By Vegansaurus!
by Elizabeth Young 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

22/02/2011 Brainiac Pigeons Rescued from Lab! Need Homes! Mickacoo <http://www.mickacoo.org/> has been up to some good work, as usual! This time, they’ve taken on ten lab-test pigeons who are no longer wanted<http://www.rescuereport.org/2011/01/lab-pigeons-can-count.html>. They were all in stupid small cages with no natural light! Very sad. The experiments they were in however gave evidence that pigeons can see color and count! Pigeons are geniuses! Check out the Mickacoo blog<http://www.rescuereport.org/2011/01/lab-pigeons-can-count.html>for the whole story. Here’s one of the beautiful pigeons in his crappy old house, then his flashy new digs!: These brainy pigeons need homes! You should get a pigeon! How cool would you be! OMG so cool. I would be super jealous. That’s important. -- Elizabeth * * Until they all have homes, don't buy, don't breed- adopt. www.RescueReport.org www.MickaCoo.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGjyooh3Yo0
