Hi there! I have some plastic pigeon perches and they are too slippery for my liking, Does anyone know place I can easy pick up that sandpaper like material with the sticky side as well, so I can tack it down on the plastic perches? Any information I appreciate.

Is there anybody in the Concord area that could loan a cage for short-term dove foster?
by Elizabeth Young 14 Aug '11

14 Aug '11

Hello- Good Samaritan Michelle took in a stray dove (welfare checked by Priya- thank you!) that is continuing to recover but needs at least another week before he's fit enough to join the foster flock. Is there anybody in the Concord area that could loan her a cage for a week or two so that he can have a little more room? (A flight cage or similar would be awesome, bar space 1/2" ideal, galvanized is OK as doves don't chew on their cage.) Thank you for considering! -- 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

Pete Needs Your Help!
by Elizabeth Young 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Hello- Pete is a very people-centric tame pigeon that was rescued as an injured baby and kept as a pet for 4 years. Then he was surrendered to the Peninsula Humane Society where he was going to be euthanized if MickaCoo didn't take him into foster care. Pete has since spent time in a big, fabulous aviary with lots of sexy single pigeons but he wasn't really happy. Then he was relocated to the SF SPCA Humane Education Summer Camp foster aviary and he has been MUCH happier with so much human attention. Now the summer program is ending and Pete needs a new foster or better yet forever home. Pete needs a person! Pete is the kind of pet bird that would enjoy hanging out on your shoulder, your computer monitor, your desk, your head... he's fine with other birds, cats and dogs (just not much interested) and really wants to have a person! Please help me to find Pete the person he deserves. Below are links to 2 short videos about Pete. Pete's current foster mom introduces him- http://youtu.be/WO2uYtcfm_Y Meet Pete! http://youtu.be/46LTiFAuE3E Please share and cross-post. Pete's counting on us. Thank you! -- 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

Fwd: [Mickaboo Discuss] Mickaboo volunteer requests - Albany/Berkeley (9/11) and Dublin (9/25)
by Elizabeth Young 10 Aug '11

MickaCoo will be there and could use more help! Please consider coming out and helping introduce people to the nearly invisible plight of homeless domestic & unreleasable pigeons and doves and inspiring supporters and adopters. It's fun! There will be pigeons in pants among other wonders.

While we have the **opportunity**, we need more beaks and boots (birdies and volunteers) on the ground to be effective at these events. Sooo, who else would like to help show off our birds and Mickaboo? Appreciate everyone’s consideration. -Pam
