Hatch date 10/16/2004

Rex is a beautiful, DNAed male Catalina Macaw. He is hand tame, but prefers to be handled by women over men and is especially fond of his 12yo human foster sister. He is a very large bird, so is very loud at times, but not aggressive. Says some words, knows his name and will even wave . He is good around other birds, but doesn't like them on or near his cage. Has been around cats, and dogs, and is good with them. He has not been around small children, but older ones he is ok with. Will climb down off cage and walk around on the floor occasionally, so needs supervision when out of cage.

Rex requires a forever home with large bird experience and will NOT be adopted to an apartment, condo, rowhouse or townhouse residence.

Rex is being fostered in Leonardo, NJ and will only be adopted to a forever home within driving distance to his foster home. Rex will require at least three visits to the foster home prior to adoption. We do not ship our birds. As our adoptable birds are being cared for in our volunteer's homes we only allow approved adoption applicants to make visits.

If you are interested in adopting Rex and live within driving distance to his foster home please complete an application on our website at ftlob.rescuegroups.org
