YAY, Virginia!!!! Thank you!!! Set your alarm for 3AM and VOTE your first vote then! I am SERIOUS. If we get a quick lead and get on the leader board, it is a HUGE advantage and gives us a real shot at winning this (highly competive) grant.

Call for help
by Catherine Johnston 02 Jan '11

02 Jan '11

Greetings all, I'm about to ask you all to do something, but first let me introduce myself. My name is Catherine Johnston and I just adopted two pigeons from MickaCoo less than a month ago. They, Tina and Tony, are doing well-- just doing some wind observations from the living room window at the present. Like many of the birds that came through MickaCoo, Tina and Tony required veterinary care, and veterinary care requires funding. Altogether Mickaboo's (and 'Coo's) veterinary bills require raising $12,000 every month and this requires tremendous effort. In order to find more funding I have applied to the Pepsi Refresh Project for a $50,000 grant for Mickaboo (and 'Coo) (Pepsi Refresh website is http://www.refresheverything.com/ ). Here's where you come in-- to win the grant Mickaboo (and 'Coo) needs your vote. Yes, that's right the Pepsi Refresh Project grants are funded according to whoever gets the most votes, and voting takes place daily. So we need your vote, but we also need you to get the vote for Mickaboo (and 'Coo)-- can you bring in 10 votes each day? With your vote, and your friends' votes, we could win the grant and fifty thousand dollars would provide a good bit of veterinary care for those birds that need help. There is one hitch-- we're not sure when the Mickaboo (and 'Coo) application will be up for voting. It could be as soon as tomorrow (Monday, January 3, 2011), which is why I'm posting today to give a "heads up." I will post as soon as I know when we can begin voting-- until then please consider how you could help bring in the votes to help our birds. Cordially yours, Catherine Johnston

SF Feral Pigeon needs rehab/release or ride to WildCare
by Elizabeth Y 30 Dec '10

30 Dec '10

This pigeon has been surviving flightless in a backyard near 15th & Dolores for 2 weeks. I have not met him but am told by his finder, Ramona cc'd, that he is flapping (likely soft tissue injury). There's a good chance this bird can recover, especially if he gets help. Can you help Ramona to box up this pij and either rehab/release him or get him to WildCare? Hiding from cats, raccoons, hawks, etc. in her backyard is not going to work forever. If you can help, please reply to Ramona directly & cc me so I can cross him off my list. Thank you!

HANDLED (somewhat): URGENT: Sick baby pigeon at SFACC needs foster care!
by Elizabeth Young 28 Dec '10

28 Dec '10

Hello- Cheryl D was able to pick up this sick baby pigeon this afternoon and had meds on hand and so was able to start treatment for the respiratory infection immediately. THANK YOU, Cheryl! And thank you also to Sherri N & Louisa J for offering (despite being full up themselves). This baby pij, Twinkle, is OK for now BUT MickaCoo is FULL and needs fosters willing to provide: -indoor supportive foster care for sick/baby pigeons (easy, only needs a crate and heating pad) -an outdoor dove aviary (we have three enclosures available for use) -an outdoor rehab/release aviary for fledgling feral pigeons (VERY easy!) (enclosure available) So please think about the possibility of becoming a MickaCoo foster and filling one of these special needs. Thank You! e On Tue, Dec 28, 2010 at 2:55 PM, Elizabeth Young <adoptkings(a)gmail.com>wrote: > This poor baby pigeon, named Twinkle, is at SFACC and sick with at least a > respiratory infection.
