Hello- I just received this email about a shelter pigeon in SJ- "Hi. A White Pigeon was left at our front door on 3/6/11 with no information were he was found, he is unable to fly, do you have space for him if possible I would loike to get him out as soon as possible, No picture was taken of the pigeon at the time of intake he was very scared." There's another one at Hayward ACC that has been waiting to come in. It's been a month since MickaCoo had its last adoption. We've got 85 birds and it is an overwhelming caseload. Even if I can find foster space for this bird, I need help doing outreach to create adoptions.

Very nice pigeon aviary for under $1000
by Elizabeth Young 05 Mar '11

05 Mar '11

Check it out and, if you like it and contact them, ask for Wes (owner) and tell them MickaCoo sent you and they might give you a discount. This is a lovely little aviary and would be great for 6-8 pigeons for twice as many doves. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/grd/2237345153.html 8 ] 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

MickaCoo's latest rescue
by Elizabeth Young 03 Mar '11

03 Mar '11

This is Ian, MickaCoo's latest rescue. He's a racing pigeon, hatched in 2008 according to his band, that got terribly hurt (most likely by a hawk). Somehow he got to the SJ Animal Control Shelter and their vet stitched up his torn crop (among other injuries) and started him on antibiotics. He was rushed by MickaCoo volunteer Jaclyn from there to FTB where he was deemed stable and sent home the next day for supportive foster care. He's eating and pooping and is expected to recover. If you'd like to contribute to his vet bill, please click here<http://www.rescuereport.org/2009/09/donate.html>and follow the directions (specify it is a donation for MickaCoo). And while I'm on the subject of an injured racing pigeon, MickaCoo is having a fundraiser<http://www.rescuereport.org/2011/03/mickacoo-sf-pour-house-taking-on-tyson.…>this Sunday night at the SF Pour House to watch the debut of Animal Planet's new show about racing pigeons- Taking on Tyson. But please, make no mistake, MickaCoo does NOT support the use of animals for sport and does not endorse pigeon racing.
