Thank you for helping this dove. I assume it's a wild Mourning dove? Can
you take it to the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley (www.wcsv.org
http://www.wcsv.org/ )? If not, let me know ASAP so I can pick it up and
take it (if you're here in San Jose). THIS DOVE NEEDS ANTIBIOTICS ASAP!!
Cats carry Pasteurella in their saliva a bacteria that is deadly to birds.
It can kill them in 48 hours from infection even if you don't see visible
wounds. It's essential that the dove get prompt medical care.
Call me at (408) 205-3058 if you need help with the dove.

I moved him into a small cage I have. He can fly I think (he flew around the
bathroom) but I think his foot is broken, he is dragging it behind him when
he walks on the bottom of the cage. I covered the cage with towels on three
sides to reduce the stress
.
I put a small bowl of water and sunflower seeds in the cage on the bottom. I
will get some parakeet seed shortly to see if he will eat that. The
sunflower seeds are the really small ones. They eat them in my backyard all
the time.
If his little foot is broken, does he have a chance? Would a rehabber be
able to help him?

Yes. Leave him in the carrier. Mickaboo has a sister group now called
mickacoo. They often care for them in carriers. Elizabeth is expert. But I
am also including coo's email add in sender list. Liz's addy is adopt one.
They will help a lot

One of my kitties was very bad yesterday afternoon and caught a Dove (they
feed at my outside bird feeders). I got it and have it in a carrier with
some sunflower seeds and water. To be honest I did not think he would make
it though the night, but he has and seems alert this morning. The problem
is, he lost ALOT of feathers, all of his tail feathers for sure, not sure
about flight feathers.
Now I don't know what to do. I may try and put him in a small cage so I can
see if he will perch, but I don't want to stress him out. Any thoughts???
