Hi everyone, Well I have just submitted an application for an african grey, so fingers crossed. I would so love to foster a parrot as so many need rehoming.
Take care Nicola |

Welcome and good luck Nicola. I hope you get to give a forever home to a lucky parrot, just be sure not to mention which bird it is you have applied for. |

Hi everyone thank you for your messages. Well I was a little too late, unfortunately for me but great news for the companion bird. I think I need to wait for the new list as possibily most parrots have been rehomed and with having children I have to be careful on which I can apply for, for both the children and the parrot as I would hate to make he/her miserable. Eagerly awaiting the new list, does anyone roughly know when they are put on the website. Kind regards Nicola

Thank you for you messages. I am an eager beaver, just so looking forward to having an addition in our house. There seems to be nothing else that me and my husband talk about at the moment lol. |

It can take a while as the rehoming team have to be 100% certain the bird you apply for is suitable for you and your family. You will one day get to give a forever home to a lucky bird, good luck next time and as you say a new updated list will be up soon |

Thanks Steve for you comments, oh I know they will have to look into all my circumstances and me too I need to be honest and sure on each parrot I look at with having children and everything else that comes with a family lol. Hi Lorraine, definately fingers crossed for you becoming a safe house mum. I will keep you all updated next time on my application, I just saw Birdline recently after someone mentioned it from another Afirican Grey charity website so was a little too late for this list. But its so great to see so many parrots are being rehomed. kind regards nicola |

Marc, one of the directors updates the list. Unfortunately i saw on Facebook last week that their internet was down, and this is a bit of a recurring problem for him. Hopefully he'll have more than his phone to work on soon and the lists will be updated. Hang on in there folks! |
