Hi, I`m Felicia, the green girl on the right who came to Mickaboo via the Oakland shelter in February 2022. Somebody found me after I got caught by a cat who brought me home! Yikes. I had a long stay with a wonderful person who got me through some tough times. I have a terminal illness and have been returned to Mickaboo for hospice care. I`m so grateful to all the kind souls here helping birds like me!
In nature, parakeets (budgerigars) live in large flocks. A single bird in a cage spends much of his/her life being lonely because humans have things they must do that take them away. We therefore will only adopt a single parakeet to a household if there is already at least one parakeet living there. Otherwise, parakeets must be adopted in groups of two or more.
