Re: [MickaCoo] HANDLED: Old Ladies Need Help!

Old lady pigeons Dee Dee Detroit and Louie moved into their safe, sunny and spacious new retirement home yesterday! Thanks to huge amounts of help from Cheryl D who prepared the 8' x 4' x 6' aviary* and Clare and her husband who disassembled, relocated and reassembled it (in a special place in their garden), these sweet old girls have a very mellow, no-stress, high-comfort home in which to enjoy their golden years. We should all be so lucky! Dee Dee settled in quickly and has tried out at least 4 of the 6 available nest boxes. Louie, ever distrustful, was slower to lower her guard but she too is starting to explore. Clare is right now delivering them a snack of grated carrot. 8 ] Yay!!! 8 ] *P.S. Special thanks to Cheryl also for building a brand new pigeon palace/aviary (!!) so that her old flight cage aviary was available for use! On Mon, Sep 6, 2010 at 1:48 PM, Elizabeth Young wrote:

Many thanks to Clare and her husband for opening their hearts and homes to two old lady pigeons! They'll be moving in this Friday. Stay tuned for updates. 8 ]

Hello-

Sweet old lady foster king pigeon Dee Dee Detroit has been trying to keep up with her young mate (Peppermint) and all the pigeon folks out in my coop but her advanced age and arthritic knees and weakening heart have drawn those days to a close. Until I can find her the right spot, she's stuck in my (overfull) house in a cage that really isn't quite as dignified as she'd like.

She really needs a nice, quiet, pigeon retirement/foster home. And, while she can't be with her mate any more, there is an old lady pigeon by the name of Louie that would also enjoy getting out of the hustle and bustle and into a nice, quiet, sunny foster home and together, they would be happy and safe and enjoy each others' company.

MickaCoo even has a nice, big, predator & weather proof flight cage that you could house these two sweet old gals in. It's 8' long, 6' high and 4' feet wide and, with just these two quiet, dignified ladies in it, would be VERY easy to care for.

They don't HAVE to live in this cage nor do they have to live outside. But they do need enough space to stretch their old muscles and some sunshine and fresh air.

Can you help them and me? We would REALLY appreciate it.

Consider this an URGENT request.
