It feels like just yesterday I somehow ended up outside and all on my own, completely unable to find my way back home. Before I knew it, I had a little run-in with what I think was a kitty cat. Luckily, a really nice person found me and brought me to VEG San Jose. The folks there are super nice, even if they do give me these yucky-tasting antibiotics. Apparently, I had a few little boo-boos, but I`m told they`re healing up nicely! I`m less than a year old, so I`m still just a little baby bird, but I`m feeling feisty.

My name is Linda, and I`m a cockatiel with a lot of love to give. I`m told I have a sweet disposition, even though I`m a bit shy right now as I recover. My favorite things are millet sprays and getting gentle head scratches (once I trust you, of course!). I`m not sure what my past was like, but I`m really looking forward to a future where I can perch on someone`s shoulder and sing them little songs.

Once I`m all healed up and my feathers are perfectly preened, I`ll be ready to find my forever home. I`m dreaming of a place with lots of toys, yummy treats, and a human (or humans!) who will give me all the attention a young bird like me deserves. If you`re looking for a charming, resilient, and adorable feathered friend, I think we might just be a perfect match!
In nature, cockatiels live in large flocks. A single bird in a cage spends much of his/her life being lonely because humans have things they must do that take them away. We therefore will only adopt a single cockatiel to a household if there is already at least one cockatiel living there. Otherwise, cockatiels must be adopted in groups of two or more.
