Parrots For Adoption
As we mention in the “About” section, the mission of M.A.R.S, the Florida based parrot rescue organization, is a simple one. We are committed to find loving homes for birds who are abandoned, neglected of not wanted for other reasons. It is our highest priority to match the right individual or family to a exotic bird that will bring years of joy to both.
The Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary specializes in parrots, one of the most popular pets in the world. M.A.R.S. offers a wide variety of these colorful birds for adoption:
MACAWS
Macaws are extremely inquisitive, curious, affectionate, and playful animals that need a great deal of time and attention paid to them for them to be happy. Often called winged rainbows, they are the most colorful members of the bird family – with powerful large beaks and long tails. Considered the largest birds among the parrots, these birds flaunt a unique blend of beauty, intelligence, inquisitiveness and other engaging traits that is almost legendary.
Here are the Macaws that we currently have for adoption:

COCKATOOS
Cockatoos are very lively and affectionate birds. They are quite cuddly and bond very closely with their owners. Their sociability means they demand a great deal of time and affection from their owners. Deprived of this, cockatoos will become depressed or exhibit neurotic behaviors. They are intelligent, playful, mischivious, and can be exceptionally loud. They are somewhat excitable so might not do so well around young children but otherwise are a total delight.
