The Phoenix Landing Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit all-volunteer organization. It was established to promote and protect the welfare of parrots, especially those with an extensive lifespan.
Increasingly, these intelligent and beautiful birds are becoming household companions. Meanwhile, their native rain forests and deserts are being rapidly consumed for use by people. As guardians of our pets, and growing consumers of the land, it is our responsibility to provide care and help for parrots -- both in domesticity and in the wild.
Most parrots, from parakeets to macaws, will need several homes across their long-lives. These birds are not "rescues" in the same way we often think of dogs and cats. Birds deserve to have a succession of good homes. Please consider adoption first!
This rescue doesn’t have any adoptable pets right now – check out adoptable pets nearby or start a custom pet search below.
