My story

1/11/23 Update: SPECIAL NEEDS Jeanie is a beautiful very lucky to be alive one-legged pigeon racing survivor. She survived having her right leg ripped off (probably by a raccoon through an unsafe barrier) & healed up on her own without ever getting vet care. (She was healed up by the time we got her.) She's a lovely pigeon married to very tiny, very cute Vernon & they are a sweet couple. They'd do best as indoor pets or in an aviary with another very peaceful couple. Jeanie's in great health now but having only one leg reduces her mobility & will likely get more complicated with time.

Jean is a bird of mystery with only one leg & no back story except that s/he was rescued in Vallejo & is now safely fostered. More info to follow as it becomes available!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require an online adoption application, phone screen & home visit and offer lots of support and coaching all along the way. Our adoption fee is $10/bird and our expectations for adopters are:
-Appropriately sized, safe and uncrowded cage or aviary approved by Palomacy
-Supervised, safe out-of-cage time (if not living in an aviary) daily
-No free flight/uncaged outside time
-Protection from hazards including but not limited to escape, pets, predators, fumes and toxins
-Companionship- lots of your time or another bird's (not home alone)
-Avian vet care if sick or injured
-Compassionate, healthy care that provides for the bird's nutritional (including lighting), physical and emotional well-being
-No breeding, birth control if bird has a mate (real eggs replaced with fakes which we provide)
-A forever home (through sickness and health, for better or worse) with a pet-care plan in place should something happen to you
-No selling, sporting or business use of birds
-Return to Palomacy if unable to keep the bird (This is not desired- we expect that you are providing a forever home!)

Go meet their pets

We are a volunteer-powered rescue and our birds are lovingly cared for in the private homes and backyard aviaries of our foster volunteers. Potential adopters can make appointments to meet our birds and we are at adoption & outreach events almost every weekend. See our Events page at www.PigeonRescue.org and visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/PigeonDiplomacy/ for details.
