Message from Owner

Betty is very friendly and loves to sit on your head. She knows to step up, but doesn’t like being approached. She’ll come to you. She is not clipped so can fly short distances. She’s very healthy and smart. She loves Cheerios and millet sprays. She knows her name and I’m just praying for her safe return. She is so precious to me. My dedicated office companion. Even guards me when I take a nap. If you see her, please let me know where and I will come to you. A guy already tried to scam me this morning so I am on alert if anyone tries it again. Thank you all kind people for helping me try and find Betty.

Gosh, I hope you find her, if she was clipped she probably didn't get far but it makes me nervous with hawks in the area. I pray for you both...

Posted on Lost and Found birds of the US. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BbSDc7mhA/?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*
