Our rescue will be temporarily closing February 15th for a few weeks, to tend to personal business - we will continue to monitor our email, phone messages, and texts in case of emergencies or other urgent inquiries which we will reply to as quickly as possible. Adoptions will still be possible during this time by appointment only. 

We urge you NOT to contemplate releasing your pet bird to the outdoors - they do not know how to recognize a predator, or how to find food and water,  and will likely perish if left outside to fend for themselves. Please contact us instead.

Thanks for your patience during our temporary closure and we look forward to hearing from you upon our re-opening!

About Our New Logo

Copyright 2021 - Our new logo, featuring Sebastian (Hyacinth Macaw in the background), Sully (Scarlet Macaw, on left), and Ruby (Scarlet Macaw, on right) was designed by graphic artist Michelle Leveille, from an original pencil sketch by Courtney Calleja, our Director’s daughter. These three magnificent macaws, now gone but still very much alive in our hearts, are the inspiration for our work here at Fine Feathered Friends Foundation, as we continue to care for and find new loving homes for the many pet birds that find their way to us!
