Meet Cooper! He is the first bird to join us in a while from the Center for Avian Adoption, Rescue, and Education in West Fargo. He’s a 25-year-old White Capped Pionus. They can live 30 to 40 years, so you could still have a long time with a new companion. They call birds feathered friends, and Cooper certainly fits…
We have an extra special Pet Connection success story, one that is more than a year in the making. CAARE Bird Rescue saved a group of parrots from a life of neglect. They actually paid for the birds just to get them to safety. We featured two of them on Pet Connection in June of 2019, including Paco the…
First, great news for our lovable friend Yanka from Homeward Animal Shelter. She found her forever home six days ago, just one day after being our Pet Connection darling. She’s a four-and-a-half year old Rottweiler who’s a big old sweetheart. She’s gonna make a wonderful social distancing buddy for her new owners. Congratulations to Yanka on finding her new…
More and more people are looking to foster or adopt animals locally as we try and protect ourselves from COVID-19 by staying home. A silver lining for all this social distancing is that more pets are finding their homes, including this excited guy. That’s Simon ringing the adoption bell at C.A.A.R.E. bird rescue in West Fargo. He found his…
If Milo likes you, you’re in for a treat. He is a super talkative, flirty, charismatic bird. And he can be yours! He’s a Mexican Red-Headed Amazon Parrot from our friends at C.A.A.R.E. They think he’s about 16-year-old. He does prefer men to women, and can be pretty loud so he would need to go to someone with a…
Hamar looks regal, like you’d see him in an old black-and-white photo in front of a mansion. But his personality sure is colorful. He’s a 12-year-old Congo African Grey parrot. Hamar loves to play with toys and hang upside down in his cage. He also loves almonds, maybe too much. He does need to lose a little weight, but…
Eva is sweet. That’s the first thing you notice about her. She was a little nervous coming into Pet Connection this week, but she didn’t let that stop her. She’s a six-year-old White-capped Pionus. She has a head covered in white feathers, along with bronze feathers speckled on her wings and blue and red feathers on the bottom side…
Meet Mango in this week’s Pet Connection. Mango is a 10-year-old Eclectus Parrot from our friends at C.A.A.R.E. Eclectus Parrots are not your typical birds. They are one of the few bird species that have different looks for males and females. Female Eclectus Parrots have red and purple feathers. They have very specific dietary needs. For that reason, most…
We’ve got another Pet Connection success story to share with you this morning. Bogart the Blue and Yellow Macaw was dealing with some stress when he visited us in early January. Our friends at C.A.A.R.E. took him in after his owner died. Bogie got stressed and started plucking his chest feathers. He was improving by the time we met…
Bert and Minty join us from C.A.A.R.E. for this week’s Pet Connection. Bert is a 10-year-old green male lovebird. Minty is and 8-year-old yellow female lovebird. They both love to get out and explore, but Bert is a bit more adventurous. Their wings are clipped but they can still zip around the living room if you let them. They…
