Birds - Avian Rescuers

Bird Adoption Groups - BirdAdoption.org - Bird Adoption - Adopt a parrot or another captive bird instead of contributing to the homeless bird problem by buying from a breeder. Educate yourself on proper bird care BEFORE adopting a bird. They make difficult, demanding 'pets' because they are wild animals!

CARE Center for Rescue, Adoption, Care and Education - a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. Our mission to find suitable adoptive homes for these birds is taken quite seriously. Fostering is a wonderful way to decide if a certain type of bird is right for you and your family, without having to make an adoption commitment first.

Breed Order: Dog rescue groups are in breed order from this point down. If you don't find the breed you are looking for, try contacting several of the rescue groups and animal shelters and ask them where you can find the breed you are looking for. Most likely, somebody will be able to help you. Some rescues will rescue other breeds other than what they specialize in. So tell them, what your looking for and see if they can find that breed through their network of connections. You may also try our Dog Breed Rescue page.
