Adoption
- How to?
If you are interested in adopting a bird from Second Chance
Bird Rescue, please read the information below. If you are
still interested, find a bird
you'd like to adopt, and please complete the adoption
application and return it to us via email.
Policies
- Adoption fees and donations are NONREFUNDABLE.
- If you adopt a bird and find you can no longer keep it, it MUST be returned to the rescue!
If you can't commit to an adoption, consider supporting
one of the many parrots at Second Chance Bird Rescue who
may never be permanently re-homed due to medical or behavioral
issues. By sponsoring one of these parrots you are
single-handedly providing support for his or her independent
care. View this
document for the details of sponsoring a bird of Second
Chance Bird Rescue, Inc.
Why Adopt?
- There are many sweet and talented birds who need a loving
home - previous owners didn't recognize what they had.
- Provide a loving bird a second chance
- Every year thousands of birds are being surrendered,
yet more birds are being born in breeding programs
Who Can Adopt?:
We prefer to adopt birds to families in the
local area. However, we do make exceptions on out
of state adoptions, but we do not ship the birds.
You must be able to visit the bird you are interested in
adopting to ensure the bird is a good fit before we will
complete the adoption.
Things to consider before adoption:
- Adoption provides a bird a second chance
- Birds require regular avian veterinary care
- Birds thrive on attention, and will do anything to get
yours
- Not all parrots talk! While many may eventually
learn to mimic or talk, it is not certain yours will
- A parrot can live for 50 years and beyond; a pet that
will require care for many years to come
- Birds are messy and can be very noisy
