Hi, I`m Ruth! I had a hard time of it and was found in a dumpster by a good samaritan, who got me to the Front St Shelter in Sacramento. The shelter asked Mickaboo to help me quickly, as I didn`t appear to be doing very well. (Oct 2024).

Fortunately a kind volunteer was available to break me out of the shelter and get me straight to a vet so I could get checked out, and now I`m doing way better. If you think you have time and space for a sweet female cockatiel like me who deserves nothing but TLC and excellent diet and care after all I`ve been through, ask our cockatiel coordinator about me!
In nature, cockatiels 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 cockatiel to a household if there is already at least one cockatiel living there. Otherwise, cockatiels must be adopted in groups of two or more.
