Parrot RelinquishmentThe Landing Zone Parrot Sanctuary: A Permanent Sanctuary for Over 140 Parrots, dedicated to lifelong care.We do not re-adopt, sell, or re-home any members of our flock. ⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: AVIAN FLU UPDATEDue to the ongoing avian flu outbreak, our facility is temporarily closed to the public and we are not currently accepting new relinquishments. We are, however, maintaining a Waiting List for future intake consideration. Thinking of Rehoming?Before making a permanent decision, please consider these proven methods to help you keep your companion: Before You Rehome: Proven Ways to Stay TogetherMany challenges that lead to rehoming are temporary or solvable with the right support. Please explore these options first: 1. Behavioral SupportBiting, screaming, and plucking are often symptoms of an underlying need rather than a personality flaw. Professional avian behaviorists can often solve "impossible" habits in just a few sessions, and simple changes to light cycles or diet can drastically reduce hormonal aggression. 2. Quality Interaction over QuantityYour parrot wants to be included in your life. Moving their cage to the room where you spend the most time allows them to feel part of the flock passively. Introducing foraging toys can also keep a bird mentally occupied for hours while you are busy. 3. Financial & Resource AssistanceIf the cost of care is an issue, resources like CareCredit or local pet pantries may assist with medical bills and food. Reach out to us directly—we may be able to connect you with subsidized veterinary contacts or temporary supply assistance. If there is a 1% chance you can keep your bird, we want to help you find that path.
