Don’t breed, don’t buy... adopt a rescued bird!

Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it.
You remain responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.
    -Antoine de Saint Exupery

Dear Mickaboo Friends:

We're very glad to announce that Mickaboo has lifted its general moratorium on intake. Our financial and human resources continue to be stretched thin, but, thanks to our many supporters around the world and our army of kind-hearted and tireless volunteers, we are able to take in more companion birds who need our help.

We still have some special challenges with our larger bird population. We have far too many macaws for our current supply of foster homes, for example, and we are having difficulties finding permanent homes for Amazons and Wild Flock cherryhead conures. All of these big, wonderful birds need special homes with very special families. If you are interested in learning more about the very largest of our big birds, or if you think you know someone that could become a forever home for a big bird, please let us know of your interest. You can contact mail@mickaboo.org or the species coordinators for these birds.

To everyone that has donated to help pay the overwhelming costs of treating the many sick and injured birds we have taken in, thank you from all of us that love and foster these birds while we work to find them forever homes. You make it possible for us to continue doing this difficult and wonderful work.

To all of you that made the decision to become a foster home or an adoptive family for Mickaboo's birds:
Thank you and welcome to our family!



Featured bird: Bruno
Hi I'm Bruno. I was adopted from Mickaboo as a friend for Caesar, a mitred conure. We became best buddies but then I got a little too hormonal and am now taking a break from that "relationship" while I get my health back on track.

Sadly our adoptive dad has had some health issues and after I was adopted as a friend for Caesar, so I had to come back into Mickaboo's care.

I have a little plucking feathers issue, as you can see from my picture. I am also having some health problems and have to wear a birdie collar, but I'm still sweet even with it.

If you'd like to know more about me, please click the link below and ask the conure coordinator about me! ... (read more)
