My story

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

Meet Paul and Ringo! This bonded pair of cockatiel brothers is looking for a forever home where they can sing, explore, and enjoy the view from a sunny window.

Paul is the more outgoing of the two, especially when it comes to expressing his feelings—he insists on knowing where Ringo is at all times and isn’t shy about calling for him if they’re separated. Ringo, on the other hand, is more independent and remains calm even when Paul isn’t nearby. Despite their differences, these two love to be together and enjoy flying around the room in tandem.

Ringo has made big strides in confidence—he’ll take treats from hands, step up when he wants down from a perch, and even hop onto shoulders. Paul, while a little more reserved when it comes to hands, loves to sing, especially showing off with his signature wing-spread performance. Both boys have grown more comfortable with people and will even perch on their foster dad’s chest and shoulders during TV time.

They’re endlessly entertained by looking out the window, especially when watching the neighbor’s dog play outside. Toys and enrichment help keep them busy, and they would thrive in a home that enjoys their sweet companionship rather than expecting cuddly birds. While they love a good singalong, they don’t love bathtime—so their future family may need to get creative when it comes to bathtime!

If you're looking for a charming duo to fill your home with song, fun, and the occasional dramatic call from Paul, these two just might be the perfect match! Adoption fee for both birds: $240

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.
