Cookie W/ Higgins, Pigeon For Adoption In San Francisco, California

Price:

$10

Location:

San Francisco, CA

Description:

Update 6/1/23: Cookie is a lovely, shy, unreleasable feral pigeon who is married to a very high energy husbird Higgins. I get the feeling that she appreciates having other birds & people around to help keep him occupied & give her a break sometimes. This couple is very dedicated to egg-laying & nest-sitting & they have to be monitored carefully as they will try to hide eggs & hatch oops babies!Update 10/10/20: Sweet Cookie has married Higgins!Cookie is a lovely unreleasable feral pigeon. She's bird oriented & also enjoys riding around on your back while you're cleaning up in the aviary. Her rescuer lost his aviary & transferred Cookie & 6 other pigeons into our foster care. About Cookie, he writes, 'She's a stable, shy, independent, robust, observant, loveable female who will probably make a great strong partner for a male who has had a rough time. And she recognizes your love even if she retains her shyness.'Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/January 24, 2024, 5:27 amAdoption processWe require an online adoption application, phone screen & home visit and offer lots of support and coaching all along the way.
