Review for Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue, San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been helping at Mickaboo for a few years and they have so many wonderful volunteers who work hard to take care of neglected, unwanted birds. Many donors pitch in too to help pay the horrendous medical bills that have to be paid for birds in distress. Volunteers help each other, provide many educational events for the general public and fellow volunteers, and help any bird owner with questions. There are so many organization that help dogs and cats, but this is the only one I know of that helps pet birds.

Review for Center for Biological Diversity Inc, Tucson, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Center for Biological Diversity works tirelessly to stem the tide of extinctions as our burgeoning human population is slowly squeezing all other creatures off our planet. Maybe its too late, but we have to try to slow down the worst mass extinction in history. I do not want our children's children to be told its too late.

Keep up your good work!

Review for Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue, San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Neglected and abused cats and dogs grab the headline but for bird lovers we also see unwanted, intelligent birds stuffed in cages and forgotten. I am happy to help Mickaboo as a foster for some of these birds. I helped a few but some of our volunteers help many birds filling their homes with happy chatter hoping someday to find a loving, forever home for the the birds. Its an overwhelming task with hundreds of birds surrendered to Mickaboo each year. Many are sick and injured requiring expensive veterinary help. The money is raised by this wonderful, all volunteer organization.

CBD is really doing what we all sit at home and wish we could do: trying to save wildlife and habitat. I read their newsletters and send emails to politicians. Without CBD where would we be?

I enjoy their successes.

Not do anything different.
