Recently, a car drove up to a dog park. The person got out of the car, removed a cage, opened the door to the cage and shooed this amazon out, placed the cage back in their car, and then raced off -- abandoning him in a place full of predators!!!
Thoughts of what could have happened to him just break our hearts; luckily, a quick-thinking person became Monkey's savior. He was brought to animal control and ultimately made his way to us.
We're still getting to know his personality. So far, what we've seen has been very nice! He's tame, steps up nicely, is very interactive, and is even beginning to talk.
By looking at his coloring and condition of his feet and eye ring skin, we think that he's still quite a young bird; probably only around 2-3 years old. We're awaiting DNA sexing to see if he is male or female.We are just heartbroken that someone could have just thrown him away.
Monkey needs a home that will commit to him, and we're going to find that for him! If you think that might be you, please stop by to meet him!
