Rescued Sulfur Crested Cockatoo. If you can make a donation it would help tremendously. Any amount will help and will go toward Jessie’s care, vet costs and medication. As most of you know we have several parrots in permanent sanctuary and money is always tight. The cost of fresh fruits and vegetables has just soared unbelievably high.

A big Thank You to Keith who is working on getting the lights in the back squared away. The ones over the cages will be on the timer, the ones over the kitchen area will be on a switch and Keith is also repairing/replacing drywall. He could use some help putting up the drywall on the ceiling so, anyone who can help is appreciated!!! Let me know.

"Get Well, Keith!" Keith was involved in a car accident and broke
his pelvis. He is home now and recovering nicely. We wish him a speedy recovery!!!

Ollie's Parrot's Perch is a new kind of boarding facility for all kinds of birds from Finches to Macaws. We specialize in "home-away-from-home" care. Your bird will receive one-on-one attention with daily playtime, misting and exercise. Our facility also features clean cages, full spectrum lighting, filtered air, and fresh fruits and veggies in addition to their usual seed or pelleted diet.

A Place to Call Home is where unwanted parrots from the midwest area come to find loving homes. We give our birds the utmost love, care and attention while they are with us. They are veterinarian checked and given any special care, including rehabilitation and behavior modification, to assure the best quality of life possible. Great care is taken to find them a long-term, loving home with a new family. The "flock" is cared for by founder, Sandi Madsen and a host of dedicated volunteers.

We are always looking for dependable volunteers to help care for the birds. (You must be at least 18 years of age or have an adult/guardian partner.) Volunteers help with cleaning and feeding of the birds, exercise and play, socialization and learn grooming techniques.

There are also opportunities to help with our outreach programs and with selling our retail items at the store and at expo's that we attend.
