MAARS made the decision some time ago to focus on Cockatoos and small birds (Cockatiels and Budgies primarily). Cockatoos are one of the most consistently rehomed and surrendered parrots. They are highly intelligent, social and curious. However, they are also very dusty, messy, destructive, and loud, and require significant attention and mental stimulation. They are uniquely poorly suited for life in a home, so many are rehomed multiple times. These are Goffin's cockatoos Blizzard and Flurry-aptly named for our Minnesota winter. www.maars.org/support-blizzard ... See MoreSee Less

Birds are often admired for their beauty and intelligence, yet many people underestimate the challenges of keeping them in captivity. The demands of noise, mess, cost, and time can quickly become overwhelming. At MAARS, we are committed to supporting birds in need, including those with disabilities, behavioral issues, or special medical needs, as well as small birds needing sanctuary. As a no-kill, non-profit organization, we rely exclusively on donations. Help us help them with a tax deductible gift to MAARS.
