My Nonprofit Reviews

We had lost the last of our 4 cockatiels in 2022 and 2023. After grieving for a bit, we started looking to adopt one or two new birds. We found For The Love of Birds and filled out an adoption form. Joanne called us and went through a thorough interview and also spoke with our references. We were very impressed with their vetting process.

After speaking with two of the bird foster families, we went to see Cici, a 4-year old male (probably) cockatiel about an hour from us, intending to adopt if we felt there could be a good bond with us. Cici was full flighted at the time, but still unafraid of us, just more interested in the foster home's parakeets. We decided to take a chance and adopt him. After chasing him a bit we finally got him into his carrier and took him home with his cage and stand.

Once home, we clipped him (twice! he's a strong flyer), and now he's calmed down and spends most of his time on one of us or on top of his cage. After less than a week, he's singing and exploring and getting into lots of trouble! I think he'll be very happy here.

We'd like to thank FTLoB and wish them the best of luck in adopting out all of their beautiful birds. Their attention to detail and followup has been excellent, and we'd recommend them to anyone looking to make some bird's life happier. F

or those of you looking to surrender a bird, we know how traumatic that can be. Rest assured that FTLoB has all the birds' best interest in mind and will only adopt out to qualified families. They'll do their best to find your bird another forever home.
