Foster Parrots, Ltd.
Before making the decision to surrender your parrot, we ask that you carefully revisit your reasons for wanting to re-home your bird and to consider the possibility of making the changes or employing training techniques that will allow your bird to stay under your care. We will be more than happy to evaluate your situation and try to coach you through some strategies that may help improve your relationship with your parrot. Sometimes there are health, logistics or family issues that make it impossible for people to keep their birds. Other times, though, it is possible to manipulate environment, introduce routine and employ training techniques that can save a parrot from losing its home.
