bird boardingCaptive Bird Sanctuary Placement Services

In some instances it is not appropriate — or desirable — to place a bird into a private home through adoption. In these cases, sanctuary placement insures a permanent, stable, long term home. Not all birds are accepted into The PRC program due to limited space and depending on our assessment on the birds overall long term needs.

At the PRC we only house Large Parrots that are unsuitable for rehoming. This includes birds that are aggressive towards all humans, very noisy, self mutilators, feather pluckers, have disabilities and parrots that have very neurotic behaviors. All parrots that do not show any of these extreme behaviours are put through the PRC rehoming process.

We do have a number of dedicated carers that do provide similar Sanctuary facilities to the PRC, so please inquire if this is something you really want your parrot to be part of.

 
Sanctuary Placement or the PRC Adoption Placement can be a good option for when you are unable to care for your parrot no longer due to death or disability. You need to consult with your attorney to include this in your estate documents, that you give your parrot to the Parrot Rescue Centre, along with a bequest sufficient to cover the housing, food, and veterinary care of the parrot/s.

parrot sanctuary What Are Captive Bird Sanctuaries Like?

A Sanctuary is a place where animals can come to live and be protected for the rest of their lives. It’s a safe haven, where they receive the very best care possible. Animals are not bought, sold, traded, or mistreated in any way that are part of the Parrot Rescue Centre. They are given every opportunity to behave naturally in a wonderfully loving environment where they can learn to be birds again rather then human companions.

Building and operating a sanctuary is not easy and is definitely not cheap. However to give the animals the very best environment possible, we have to be prepared to do whatever it takes to accomplish this goal.
The Parrot Rescue Centre spends a lot of time and resources in doing what is best for the parrots by ensuring the birds are regularly vet checked, given fresh food, enrichment, clean aviaries and cages, providing natural habitats and by building larger encloses.
Such long-term, comprehensive care is very costly and requires the hard work, dedication, and commitment of very special individuals. With your help we can continue to provide a high standard of care. Please help by purchasing toys and assessories from the PRC Online Store, sponser a parrot through our Virtual Adoption Program or Donate Aviary materials and Food etc .
