Companion birds are one of the preferred pets in the USA. Not all pets receive good care and a loving home. Established in 2001, ARC has expanded to rescuing and providing a sanctuary for all types of birds. Thousand of birds are abandoned or lost annually; ARC provides care and rehabilitation until ARC can find them a new and caring home. Domesticated birds have little to no chance of survival in the wild.
The adoption process is fairly straight forward: you contact Avian Rescue Corporation and set up an interview where you will be asked to explain how you intend to provide for your new companion (housing, food and medically); once the interview has been successfully completed, you get to meet the bird(s), sometimes a bird will pick out the person - there may be a need for several meetings prior to any adoption; then you complete the Adoption Form (if not already completed); have a home inspection to see that your home is safe for your new companion and you have a reasonable cage size for your bird; pay the adoption fee; and finally you take your new companion home. Most birds at ARC have come from unfortunate situations and ARC tries to make the best choices possible for their future life, we DO NOT just sell a bird, we place them in a loving environment. ARC does not commercially ship birds, it is too stressful on them. The adoption information is for the use of ARC only and will not be given to others for any purpose without your express written approval. It will be used for the purpose of finding the best match for you and your adoptee. It is your right not to answer any, or all question(s), however if you elect not to complete most of the questionaire, you will not be given an opportunity to adopt a bird from ARC.
