What to Do If You Cannot Keep Your Bird(s)

 

The best way Palomacy can help is if you join our Palomacy Facebook Group to crowdsource quick help. (Post a photo, your location & the situation for best support.)

Pigeons in distress need expert help but sadly, many rescues turn them away. This map shows some that might help.

They have not been screened nor are they endorsed by Palomacy.

Being on this map does not certify a safe placement. Once you connect with someone, you have to evaluate them! Please do not just turn over birds without knowing what will happen to them and the conditions in which they’ll be kept. You must evaluate a placement yourself before handing over birds. As a rescuer, I am not insulted when someone wants to know about our care but rather the opposite. I am thrilled that the surrenderer cares enough to inquire! If the rescue isn’t comfortable answering questions and providing info, take that as a serious red flag. Rescuers and sanctuaries are always at risk of having too many birds to properly care for, of tipping over into hoarding. There are some truly horrific fates, fates worse than euthanasia, that can befall birds. Make sure that your bird isn’t going to languish neglected in an overcrowded coop or a too small cage, be mauled and killed by predators in an unsafe enclosure or be endangered through sale to ‘feather merchants’.

If you find a pigeon (or a dove) in need, please bring the bird indoors to safety and contact those closest and, if needed, ask for referrals to others closer. And, if you know of or find a good one, please provide their name, address and contact info in a comment below so we can add them to the map.

Thank you for your compassion.

This map shows some of the pigeon-friendly rescues that we have found.
