The Benefits of Adopting a Parrot as a Pet
In this article, we’ll delve into the myriad advantages of parrot adoption and the joys of having a pet parrot.
Ben was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely a top notch organization! Thank you so much!
My husband and I went with my mother in law so she could check out a rescue cockatoo here. I had recently lost my beloved Quaker parrot Sky, so I was not looking myself. But along came Oscar, who stole my heart. A shy but feisty Conure who gravitated right for me and wouldn’t leave me alone the entire time we were there. We went to leave, and I said “Goodbye pretty boy” (something I said to Sky each time I’d leave) and he made a maneuver with his one good wing precisely the way sky would to say goodbye and I knew our fate was sealed. They were wonderful getting me all set up and ready to take him home, and giving me as much backstory for Oscar as they could. They really have a nice, clean rescue set up here.
Big thank you to this rescue and Ben for the smooth adoption process with Lucky. He is the sweetest boy and we’re lucky to have each other! More than anything, I appreciate how cared for these birds are. Their needs are taken care of, but they are also emotionally invested in and so much care is put into their rehoming and future well-being. Every animal deserves this type of care. Thank you 😊
So grateful to have met Ben and Valley Parrot Rescue. With great sadness I surrendered a dear umbrella cockatoo today due to family health issues. She is a most loving bird and Ben was so adept in working with Angel. He has made my heart rending decision so hopeful and optimistic for Angel and my family's future. A great place to meet your next new family addition.
Very helpful, second time I brought a bird there and they took care of it .
What an amazing organization! Ben helped me so much at a time when I no longer could care for my bird. He took in my sweet little bird and found him a new home. I highly recommend Valleywide for adoptions and rescues.
I had come across this rescue by accident one day… I seen a parrot I fell in love with immediately. The sweet little guys name is plum. I worked mostly with Ben through my process and he was so sweet and answered every question I had never made me feel like a bother and trust me I asked him a lot of questions he prepared me for everything I needed to know about plums specific personality and his likes or dislikes. He made me feel welcomed and comfortable when I came in to meet plum. I felt he truly cares for his birds and really does want them to go to the best homes. You can tell all his birds are loved and the birds trust him. The birds are well cared for clean cages, food and water at all times. I am truly grateful to have found this rescue and found the perfect bird to make part of our family. I recommend anyone go here to find their new baby. I have been to other rescues where I felt very judged and was actually straight up judged didn’t just feel that way and demanded to do things. Like was told to sit like I was a dog. Anyhow, When I finally came to pick up plum for take home I met the rest of his crew who were just as nice and friendly they played with and talked to my 2 1/2 year old like she was there everyday. You could tell plum also trusted them as well. Such great people they all are ❤️ I love this team and I appreciate all they do for these lovely birds. You can tell they take so much time with them he knows exactly what each bird needs or what each bird does not like. That’s someone who cares
