Here to Help! Portland, Oregon

[Laurel]

Hello!

Sadly I am not a bird owner, though I plan to adopt a few in the future.

I am on this forum in the hope that I might convince someone in Portland, Oregon to let me come over and hang out with their birds. I'll clean cages, feed, play, whatever.

You see, I volunteered at a bird rescue for three years. I spent three years bonding with the flock - from moluccans to budgies. I recently moved and I miss them terribly! As you all know, there is no substitute for being around birds.

I hope this message reaches someone who will take me up on this. If not, I still got to join an awesome parrot forum.

If you want to foster birds you could contact Exotic Bird Rescue of Oregon I don't know if they need any other types of volunteers.

I just got my bird.... not ready to share him yet lol

Welcome to the forum. Good luck on your quest!

Blue...thanks for the lead. Fostering birds isn't really possible at the moment. The reason I don't have any is fluctuating schedule/general busyness. Not compatible with having or fostering. Hopefully soon. What sort of bird do you have?

Riio...thanks for the welcome.

Darn! Wish you were closer to me, I love having people over to help me keep all of the babies entertained and well socialized, I'm sure you will find someone closer to you that can help you out, have you tried making a similar posting on your local craigslist page?

Icywolf...I haven't but that is a great idea. Thanks!
