Message from Owner

Help! Our beloved Smokey Robinson unexpectedly got out today. He loves people, and he can freeze to death in temps under 70. His favorite treats are salad greens and popcorn. If you see him, please, please bring him in (he'll likely perch on your finger), and please, please message us! We love him so much! And his bonded buddy, our little blue parakeet Stevie Wonder, has been flying around our looking for him since he got out.

Generally, yes. Smokey is super people-friendly, and very eagerly eats salad greens and popcorn that are offered, so we're holding out hope.

Wait ... I hate to say this but the chance of not only finding but catching a parakeet in the wild is like 0%

Posted on Lost and Found birds of the US. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1E441s3DTu/?mibextid=wwXIfr We are so sorry to hear your bird is missing. Here are some ideas to assist in your search. *Create a post on Pawboost, NextDoor & Ring, if you haven’t already. *During the daytime: use a wireless Bluetooth speaker to broadcast flock calls or your voice, shake treat bags or anything that might attract attention to food, put the cage out where it can be seen. *During the evening when searching is over, design & print off flyers with photo & contact information. These can be encased in a ziplock to keep weatherproof & posted in areas where allowed like parks, poles & any nearby gathering areas. Also drop off some at vet clinics, pet supply stores, anything within a 5 mile radius. Contact local shelters/rescues & even the police dept - they do pick up found/stray pets all the time. Make sure the world knows - neighbors esp ones that have bird feeders/baths/pools. Hand them out while searching the area. Join every local social media group there is. Run an ad in your local newspaper - some run one for free in lost & found (or cheap). Also check with local bird watcher groups - they’re always out & about. Flyers cannot be placed in mailboxes. *PLEASE CHECK WITH LOCAL ANIMAL SHELTERS & FILE A MISSING PET REPORT*
