Rescue Information ...
|
We focus on assessing each parrot's needs and rehabilitate them to become sociable
human companions. Parrots are rehabilitated by watching other parrots interact with
the public. Parrots learn to trust Brian by meeting their physical, medical, social,
and mental needs.
Many parrot rescues are needed nationwide. Please choose yours carefully! We parrot
lovers want to make a difference and help our feathered friends, but not all rescues
are legitimate or what they say they are. We strongly encourage you to find a parrot
rescue in your community to help out. If you need the services of a rescue, we want
you to research each facility and find which one is best for you or your parrot.
Remember, it is love out of your heart when you look to find a more suitable place
for your parrot if you are not able to live a lifestyle including your sociable
feathered friend. A parrot does not belong in a cage all day, every day.
Brian shares his success of rehabilitating parrots by giving back to the community
for donations: parrot parties, school presentations, nursing homes, using parrot
tricks to talk about gun, fire, and seatbelt safety, and provides unique pictures
for the public at permitted locations (Old Town Alexandria, Petco's, etc). Brian
rehabilitates parrots before fostering or adopting out parrots; making the best
decision for that parrot. Although some people think they want a parrot, they must
meet volunteer criteria in order to understand the true committment to a new feathered
family member.
WPF is a proven non-profit rescue, which means 100% of your donations (money or
material) are tax-deductable. WPF DOES NOT BREED or SELL PARROTS!!!
Some parrot rescues say they rescue parrots yet breed parrots to sell, which only
adds to the over population problem. WPF feels a permit should be given to parrot
breeders controlling the number of parrots they are allowed to produce upon results
of the number of parrots which enter parrot rescues.
