Meet Misha, a Senegal parrot was found by a woman who tried to
find the owner with no luck. After a month or so she called Rescue
and a volunteer went and picked up the bird. This Senegal was not at all
friendly - a bit
skittish, but a couple that had lost their Senegal parrot around the same
time agreed to foster him. They named him Bandit. Unfortunately,
after months of trying to work with him they decided to give him
up. They really loved him but he was so difficult at times - Bandit
just wasn’t for them.
Volunteers are
currently working
with him. He is very smart, a great escape artist (he can unscrew
and remove the quick links from the feeder doors to prevent him from
opening them and so a chain was strung tightly across the cage
between the feeder doors so he cannot get them off. Once out of his cage
he can do step-ups and he loves his
beak rubbed, however, everyday his rehab has to be started all over
again. He has been found a new
home and has been renamed Misha. His new owner is a young
man who can now kiss him and handles him well. Misha found a great
home with a new owner he loves. |
