My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Say hello to Ollie, a bright and beautiful Sun Conure with a big personality and an even bigger heart. At 13 years young, Ollie is continuing to blossom in foster care and has made wonderful progress as she settles into a routine and builds trust with her people.

Ollie feels most confident in her cage, which she considers her safe space. She loves exploring every corner of it and enjoys spending time perched in her favorite spots. She can be a bit protective of her space during cage cleaning, so she does best with someone who understands bird body language and respects her boundaries.

Outside of her cage is where her sweet personality really shines. Once she knows it is time to come out, she is happy to do so and truly enjoys being with her people. She loves snacking, cuddling, and spending time nearby, and she greets anyone who walks through the door with her impressive and cheerful vocalizations. She is especially affectionate once she feels safe and comfortable.

Ollie is still working on her balance and coordination, especially when stepping up. She sometimes grips a bit harder than intended, not out of aggression, but simply to steady herself. With patience and gentle guidance, she continues to improve and grow more confident every day. She will step up willingly and enjoys short periods of shoulder time, especially when her person is calm and seated.

She has been enjoying a steady diet and absolutely loves her fresh fruits, with apples, bananas, and mangos being her favorites. She gets very excited for snack time and happily accepts treats.

Ollie thrives on routine and does best in a calm, patient home that understands that trust takes time. She would do well with someone who appreciates small victories and enjoys building a bond at her pace. With consistency, kindness, and love, she continues to show just how special she is.

Medical note: Ollie does have a heart murmur that will need ongoing monitoring in her forever home.

Ollie is a sweet, expressive girl who is learning every day that the world can be a safe and loving place. She will make a wonderful companion for someone willing to meet her where she is and grow with her. Adoption fee: $250

Additional adoption info

Whether interested in adopting a particular bird or not, you will need to fill out an Adoption Application, which can be found on our website. From there, our adoption team will process your application (including background check, veterinarian check for all current animals, and a home visit)
We will not ship any of our adoptable birds, and have a 100-mile adoption radius. We do not adopt to breeders. We are not able to adopt birds into homes that use Teflon product or smoke due to toxicity dangers.
