]]> Help us rescue and save a life https://greatlakespigeonrescue.org/campaign/help-us-rescue-and-save-a-life/ Sun, 03 Jan 2021 20:53:37 +0000 http://greatlakespigeonrescue.org/?post_type=campaign&p=14478 Thank you for caring about pigeons in the middle of one of the most difficult years in memory. We founded Great Lakes Pigeon Rescue to address a need we knew existed: abandoned pigeons with no hope for survival in the wild. Your involvement makes the hundreds of hours we spend rescuing, transporting, cleaning, and administering medical care worth it, because you make us know we’re not alone in our love for these wonderful birds.

I want to tell you a story about two of those birds.  Senshi and Toothless are an incredible pigeon couple who truly embody the power of love. Toothless was found barely alive, with all her tail and flight feathers missing, a brave survivor of pigeon racing and a hawk attack. As she recovered from her wounds under the loving care of our volunteers, we discovered that neurological trauma had also left Toothless blind. Visually impaired pigeons never cease to amaze us! Toothless quickly learned how to find her food and water dishes by listening for the sounds of rattling seeds and voice cues from her foster humans.

And then Toothless met Senshi! Senshi is also a brave survivor of pigeon racing and a hawk attack who courageously spent months patiently recovering from a severely infected shoulder wound. While Senshi is no longer able to fly, he says he can still be Toothless’ eyes! These two patient, loving birds support each other every day in their journey to recovery, and now that they are fully healed and enjoying their newfound health and happiness, they are looking for a forever home where they can share their love and courage with their very own humans!

Stories like this cannot happen without the help of volunteers, donors, and those who open their home to a pigeon companion. Will you help us save birds like Senshi and Toothless by making a gift of $20 which buys a 50lb bag of seed, $40, the cost to equip a new foster volunteer with a pigeon enclosure, or $200, the cost of life-saving surgeries?

About Me

Jimmy likely endured quite the traumatic experience as he fought to survive as a lost racing pigeon until he was rescued, so it’s no wonder this gentle bird is still a bit scared! He was so relieved to see other pigeons safe and unharmed upon his arrival into our rehab care, and still finds the presence of his fellow pigeon friends a great comfort. Jimmy will be a wonderful addition to any flock in a foster or forever home or aviary where Jimmy can be loved and reassured he’s truly safe at last…

Want to Adopt me?

We ship eligible birds within the United States weather permitting as long as two-day shipping is available (some locations may be too remote to ship to). All of our birds are vet checked, and we ask an adoption fee of $40 per bird and $60 per pair to help offset the cost of those vet checks. **COVID update: in cases where vet checks are not available, we’re doing a medical evaluation through our experienced rehabbers and reducing the adoption fee to $15 per bird and $25 per pair.

About Me

Slate has heard gemstones, crystals, and minerals are on trend recently, and she wants everyone to know she is even more beautiful then a sparkly geode! Her feathers are a truly remarkable blend of deep, varied colors that shift in the light – just like a Quantum Quattro stone! This magical pidge is a tiny bit shy (her fame-worthy beauty hasn’t gone to her head!) and oh so sweet – and she is so excited to bring her sparkle to a loving foster or forever home!

About Me

Junco (cat-tail in Spanish!) is not even a year old yet, and she already has remarkable poise and grace! She bravely survived pigeon racing, and since being rescued has amazed us all with her exceptionally beautiful and regal demeanor. This true princess is a bit shy and demure at first, but once you pick her up and reassure her she’s safe she relaxes and settles right in for cuddles and conversation! Junco is eager to grace a loving foster or forever home with her regal presence!
