My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Zelda is a spunky Goffin's cockatoo looking for a high-energy household to match her playful personality! This adorable girl is quite vocal, yelling "Wheeeee!" "Peekaboo!" "Pretty Bird," and "Come here." Zelda will usually step up but might very well bite you first, so her ideal new family will be familiar with cockatoo behavior and body language. She has a habit of plucking and will need lots of attention, distraction, and toys to discourage this behavior. Zelda is a party bird whose favorite things are: tons of attention, games of peekaboo, great music to dance to, witty conversation, and plenty of wood toys to demolish. Her foster family enjoys this character so much, noting her "fun, energetic personality." Would you love to be kept constantly entertained by this gregarious Goffin's? Zelda's adoption fee is $340.

Additional adoption info

Whether interested in adopting a particular bird or not, you will need to fill out an Adoption Application, which can be found on our website. From there, our adoption team will process your application (including background check, veterinarian check for all current animals, and a home visit)
We will not ship any of our adoptable birds, and have a 100-mile adoption radius. We do not adopt to breeders. We are not able to adopt birds into homes that use Teflon product or smoke due to toxicity dangers.
