Frankie the baby pigeon is doing OK
by Elizabeth Young 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Frankie the baby pigeon is doing OK and Dr. Sanders "doesn't expect complications". He is still at Wildwood and today is in the loving care of our very own Louisa. His sutures are holding and feeding seems to be working (despite the injury along the way). Fanny is continuing to do well. They will be ready to come home tomorrow. The Wildwood staff is going to give me some more training and switch me to a soft tube (rather than the gavage stem that I thought proper to use) so I may be able to resume hand-feeding but if there is a more experienced hand-feeder that would like to take these babies in for a week or so, please let me know. Thanks! -- 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

Elizabeth, Laurie is absolutely right--you're doing a great job; it can't always go perfectly. Frankie will be fine (remember, Claudette had crop surgery (twice, I think) under MickaCoo's care, and look how she's thriving!)

We do have a split between Mickaboo & MickaCoo but I often post to both. If I post too much, please tell me and I will do so more judiciously! (I like being on both because I learn so much.) And I appreciate the periodic reminders about trimming responses. I don't always do that but am working on being more conscientious! > I have often thought that it might be helpful to have separate discussion > lists for Mickacoo and Mickaboo.

Milpitas Beauties

Big thanks to Cathy K and Cheryl A for devoting their afternoon to welfare checking and photographing and starting the MickaCoo rescue process for the 34 survivors of the 60 king pigeons released for good luck a week ago Sunday. The birds are in pretty good condition with only one in need of special treatment and there's a lovely palette of colors represented. Each of these birds is an individual that wants to live. They deserve a nice life in a safe aviary with a mate, some food, a little water to splash in and sun to lounge in. MickaCoo has unused aviaries available... together we can save these birds. Please. -- 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

A lot of people have asked me about...
by Elizabeth Young 14 Mar '11

14 Mar '11

Hello- A lot of people have asked me what I think about pigeon racing lately. I think pigeon racing is like dog racing or horse racing except that, in addition to the exploitations of the sport, they also they take the athletes 10s or 100s of miles away from home and set them free with a wish for good luck and a speedy return. Some don't make it. Some do but are slow and so are culled (killed). It would be like someone stealing you from your beloved home and life and family and setting you free X miles away and betting on how fast you can make it home (if you make it home), for their own fun and thrill. Pigeons are home-bodies. Pigeons LOVE home and family. I know there are many people, all across the world, who race pigeons. Many of them are very nice, decent people. I have nothing against pigeon racers but no, personally, I don't think pigeon racing is nice to pigeons. 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
