To
become a foster home requires a dedicated person and an understanding
family - it should not be taken on lightly. Birds that are fostered
are potentially disturbed by the changes to their environment and may
require extra efforts on behalf of the foster carer to ensure that
they remain healthy and happy. They will also require a veterinarian
visit.
There is also the issue that fostering is a temporary
situation and that the bird will eventually be moved to a permanent new
owner. This can affect family members, especially children who may
become emotionally attached to the bird.
If you have the skills and patience to help us with new
birds that are donated to the Program then please download and complete

page. We will review and get in touch shortly after to discuss. |
