Pets aren’t just pets. Pets are family. And no matter what kind of creature warms your heart, they deserve to be treated with love and lots of toys!
One of my favorite sites for all things pet related is PetFinder. While it is the ultimate site to find and rescue a new family member, they are also a wonderful resource on how to take care of your birds and animals. They offer tips, can direct you to local shelters, have videos and many times you can even find deals on product. For example, right now they are offering $15 dollars off Purina pet food, treats or litter with proof of adoption.
If you are new to pet adoption, right on the front page of the site is a guide to help you! There is a checklist for new adopters, tips on finding the right pet (read: good with kids, other dogs, etc) and pet adoption FAQs. Remember, just because you'd like a dog doesn't mean you should just run out and get one. You need to think about so much first and these checklists can help you with things you may not have even considered.
If you already have a furry or feathered friend at home? Petfinder.com is an invaluable resource for help. For example, check out their bird care page. There is help on what to prepare in case of a natural disaster, what household items are dangerous for a bird and more.
Please go and check out this awesome site. So much to see and so many animals looking for new homes. And as they say, "rescue is the best breed." :)
