Mission
For the Love of Birds is exclusively for charitable and educational purposes of companion birds through rescue, care and placement. We are a network of dedicated foster homes through NJ annd Philadelpha. we have no central location. As our adoptable birds are living in volunteer foster homes we only allow approved applicants to make required visits prior to adoption and require forever homes to be within easy driving distance of a bird's foster home location.
Parrots can live long lives, 20 to 80 years, and because of this and by virtue of not being a domesticated animal, they will end up living in multiple homes for various reasons; unfulfilled expectations, death, moving, loss of job, life changes, etc. It is our mission to help as many birds as we can and find a loving and educated next home in New Jersey and surrounding areas.
We are a registered 501c3 nonprofit animal rescue operating in the State of New Jersey. We possess a permit from the State of New Jersey, Division of Fish & Wildlife for Exotic and Non-Game Wildlife Species Possession, Pet Shop - Retail Sales.
Our Beliefs
Each bird in our care will be treated as an individual and worked with to improve their diet, health, sense of security, joy, confidence and positive interaction with humans. We will work with the bird to build trust, activate their seeking system and develop skills to succeed in their next home. Each bird will be cared for in a private foster home.
We do not ship birds as we believe this is very stressful for them.
