My story

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

How Rocky arrived:
Rocky was brought in by his previous owner on January 25, 2026.

Why Rocky is the one for you:
Meet Rocky - a handsome pigeon with a curious spirit and a heart that belongs to his best friend, Adrian (ID: 980535). These two are bonded, meaning they are looking for a home where they can stay together! Rocky is a bit of a shy guy who can be startled by loud noises or quick movements, but if you move slowly and speak softly, his natural curiosity will start to shine through - he's got the eye of the pigeon and is ready to go the distance with you. His favorite treats are safflower, sunflower, and millet seeds, along with a daily calcium supplement to keep him in tip-top shape. Because he's a sensitive soul, he'd prefer a peaceful indoor environment away from the hustle and bustle of cats or dogs. Pigeon Care Tips: Pigeons are social birds who thrive best with a companion (like Adrian!), so keeping them bonded is important for their happiness. They need a spacious, quiet indoor space away from predators and loud noises, fresh water daily, and a varied diet supplemented with calcium. Pigeons enjoy perching on flat surfaces and appreciate soft bedding like newspaper or cardboard. They can live 10-15 years or longer with proper care, so adopting a pigeon is a long-term commitment to a loyal, gentle friend. If you have a quiet corner of your home and a love for feathered friends, Rocky and Adrian are ready to fly into your life and show you they're championship companions! Come meet this knockout duo and bring a secure carrier - they're ready to start their next chapter together with you!
