perrin Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Or would anyone be interested in taking on two cockatiels? They belong to my FIL who is very sick and he would like to give them away as he is finding it very difficult to look after them now. There are also two budgies. I believe they are a male and female but i have asked one of my sisters if she would like them to go with hers so i am just waiting to hear back if she has room. My husband is bringing the birds home this afternoon to Bendigo and we won't be able to keep them very long so it is fairly urgent. If anyone knows someone in bird rescue or knows of a good home for them please send me a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efowler Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Im not sure about any bird rescues but our rescue will take birds, rabbits, ferrets, etc. I have a very dedicated bird carer with lots of avaiaries and experience. If needed just PM me and we can try to work something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perrin Posted March 24, 2012 Author Share Posted March 24, 2012 Thanks Efowler. My sister is going to take the budgies and said she will try and find a cheapish aviary to take the cockatiels as well. If the cockatiels don't work out i can hopefully bring them up to at least Narrandera if not Wagga in the holidays as i have family up your way. Our school holidays start on the 30th of March.

Sounds like a plan. We can meet in Narrandera if need be too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekhbet Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 you will be hard pressed to find large professional rescues for birds due to disease risks - a friend has rescued before and due to the lack of veterinary knowledge and strict quarantine required he just won't take them any more.

A-B-C Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I happened to overhear a conversation yesterday that 'might' help... Pet & Aquarium Warehouse in Essendon have a card for people who do bird sitting. They mentioned that they often have birds dumped on them and they possibly take surrenders at times... I don't know the name or number of the people, but if you give the Essendon store a call I'm sure that they could give the name and no on the card...

Pawfect Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Georgina has helped me before when I was trying to rehome someone's birds - she was great. http://www.petrescue.com.au/member/1077 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
