Welcome to the Website of Colorado Parrot Rescue, Inc. (CoPR).  We are a small, 501(c)(3), non-profit, all volunteer bird rescue organization that was recently formed to meet the ever growing need of rehoming birds that people no longer want or cannot care for anymore, or that have been rescued and need a new home.  We are registered as a charitable organization with the Secretary of State's Office in Colorado.  Many of the existing bird rescue organizations in Colorado and throughout the United States are unable to take in all of the birds that need to be rehomed.  As a result, they are placing people and their bird(s) on waiting lists, which delays the journey of the bird(s) into a new home.  One of our goals is to help alleviate a small part of this problem.

 

Another one of our goals is to make sure all foster home caretakers and adopters are educated about proper bird care in order to enhance the chances that the adoption is a success.  As part of our educational process, we believe it is important that both potential and existing bird caretakers understand that birds need veterinary care from a veterinarian that specializes in birds.  Therefore, we will gladly provide verterinary references or direct you to a resource where you can select your own avian vet.

 

We plan on utilizing a foster care home program as housing for the bird(s) until they can be adopted into permanent homes.  The Foster Program is explained in detail elsewhere within this website.  We thank you for your interest in Colorado Parrot Rescue, Inc. and look forward to helping you should you want to relinquish your bird(s), to foster/adopt one of our birds, or are simply seeking advice on how to improve the care of your companion bird(s).

 

Our philosophy at Colorado Parrot Rescue, Inc., which is based on the best interests of the companion birds that come into our lives, is as follows:
