This is an Interview with Richard Weiner, Executive Director of RESCUE THE BIRDS --
A REFUGE FOR SAVING THE WILDLIFE
(located just north of Chicago) featuring:
BLUE and GOLD MACAW MARLEY and
COCKATOOS COOKIE and KIKI
RESCUE THE BIRDS lovingly cares for some 60 Parrots who need new forever homes!
PLEASE VISIT THEIR WEBSITE:

for more information, to meet their birds and, if you can, to ADOPT A BIRD and MAKE A DONATION!
Like so many other Parrot Rescues, THEY HAD TO BUILD AN ADDITION in 2008 to accommodate their ever increasing population of unwanted Parrots and still need FUNDS TO COVER those EXPENSES!
To find out WHY so many Parrots (especially Cockatoos) wind up in Rescues, visit: www.mytoos.com/ AND

And please remember...'DON'T BUY, DON'T BREED: A-D-O-P-T A PARROT IN NEED!'
Thank you so much for watching and helping!
A saw a blue and gold in a small pet store, I started visiting everyday. One day the owner smacked her. I told my husband, we said we wanted the bird. They had the nerve to charge $900.00 for her. Her cage was so small she couldn’t stretch her wings. We borrowed and got her., she was so happy to get love. It’s 20 years later and we are getting old. She seems young and vibrant. These birds need so much attention, like any child.
I have 12 parrots 8 cockatoos they are awesome
Cockatoosmom cockatoos are parrots...
There are too many bird stores and bird breeders selling birds left and right and they don’t bother to tell the customer the truth about owning a bird .. so most of these birds end up being neglected or turned loose ...
Y E S ! ! ! :(
We have a
i own three cockatoos and they are all adopted
Thank you for posting this! Too many birds are bought on a whim at pet shops or breeders...and wind up re-homed over and over. Birds are amazing companions, but they are work...and if you are not up to the task....take a pass.
P.S. I love my 2 'toos and my African Grey..they will be with me til I die!!
I have never heard of anything like this in the U.K. Amazing. Perhaps we don't keep parrots to an extent, but I know they can outlive a person. Anyway, well done!
Ditto MissPickletoes! I am with her 100%! Thanks for posting this video. I wish 1000's more people would post videos about RESCUING, DON'T BREED OR BUY! We must work together to get laws passed to protect our birds.
Blessings,
Linda Kershaw (Geronimo's bird mommy)
For the record, many birds need long term homes. They can bite, they are extremely messy, they can be ill behaved if not socialized properly.. and they are noisy! Few species are good for apartments or homes where noise is not tolerated. Kids generally but not always exasperate these traits in parrots. I don't think that interviewer should have had the Macaw on her shoulder - she clearly was not comfortable with it and that is how bad bites can happen.
I’ve tried to adopt a senior amazon but there are none in my area -Alabama , so I miss out and I would be a great owner because I have great experience with birds of all sizes
He was trying to say “yeah these animals need more attention than any other and aren’t an ideal family pet” and the lady’s just like, “my cocktail used to nibble on my teeth. They’re the best pet” lmao
I'm with Miss Pickletoes ALL THE WAY!

Hi
I'm from India, Kolkata
Can i adopt a bird from you 🥺?
I want a macaw parrot to adopt it but i didnt find it somewhere
I can't adopt birds because I Live in Australia and no birds are available for adoption near my area
SHHHCuber same😖
But you guys are also lucky... You have wild cockatoos everywhere...😍
Tronix212 I thought you can adopt cockatoos from a pet store in Australia can’t bring in one as a pet
Cockatiels are tricky, certainly would NOT recommend as a first bird. Budgies are much easier, you need two as they are sociable birds.
As beginners I think Canaria might be more chances to belong famelies
There singing is closer to out music ears, they very lovely
My rescue birds. Struggle,.... Today the latest incoming, she up in weight, she has no
Insect, she knows the ortyer birds, but. She can sit, taking to the orther birds and me
Crying, all the time, I cried as knowing were she and some of the other birds were rescued from
Thin
Frighten
Confused
Plays of illusion hunger hiraki
Some understand they safe
Some Rebel in aggressive outburst
It's very. Demanding rescue birds
I have one rescue dog, and a dog from puppi both was cut off
A tail atemoth, so both are to demanding, and when trained
Rehabilitering, train in army wTs, they perform great but
Behind is. So sweet, so great. Is. That
Darknes of the neglect, sepperatiin fears, food and fices troubled
For anyone rescue animals horses, dogs, birds. The rescue is nothing
Compare to...... Years recovery and truth is, they are not all, recovering
Forced therapy, don't work, time do, respectively
God Bless
