Sunshine is an approximately 10 year old Male Cockatiel.
Typical Grey cockatiel with bright Orange on the cheeks . 

 

His owner had to move , and didn't want to take Sunshine with him. 

He was the only bird in the home .

 

Sunshine is a bit shy of hands, but not aggressive at all .

He is in a foster home with another male Cockatiel , and so far is responding 

well to the new company . 

Very quiet for a male , never been around other birds , so maybe unsure 
what to do , lol

 

He has been eating small seed his entire life, but we are trying to introduce him 

to some pellets and fresh food. 

 

We will be giving him a slight clip , for safety while we encourage him to venture

out of his cage . 

 

He has been tested for diseases ,and both tests came back negative. 

 

We would like to see him go to a home with at least one other Cockatiel , as 

he seems to be enjoying having new friends. 

 

Sunshine is being fostered in Leonardo NJ .and will only be adopted to a forever home within driving distance to his foster home. We will not ship our birds. For the Love of Birds is a network of dedicated foster homes throughout NJ and Philadephia, we have no central location. As our birds are living in volunteer foster homes only approved applicants are allowed to make visits.

If interested in adopting Sunshine please complete an electronic adoption application on our website ftlob.rescuegroups.org.

 

Educating potential adopters and the public is essential to reducing the problem of unwanted birds being kept in captivity and providing those birds living in homes with the best lives possible.
