It’s relatively easy to classify birds into family groups based on physical characteristics. We sing about them, we paint them, we use them as mythic and poetic symbols for our spiritual and emotional feelings, we wear them in myriad and often colorful ways, we adopt them as household pets.

Together with the ASPCA, their Rescues and Runways program hopes to find homes for pets, and raise money for shelters. Homeless Pets Need More Help Than Ever Before. Families who are facing hard financial times are being forced to surrender their dogs, cats and other pets to animal shelters at an alarming rate.

11am: Get a call from Munchkin’s new family that they’re driving four hours to pick her up. 3pm: Arrive at the destination within one minute of the forever family coming to pick up the munchkin. 3:05pm: Feel convinced that this family is perfect for the munchkin (already did a virtual home visit a week earlier).

But its not just parrots that are doing well in their adopted city. Dozens of other introduced bird species, largely escapees from pet owners, now call Miami home. Well-represented exotic families include starlings, ducks and doves and there are also many more individual species that now thrive here.

There is a fun game called Furdiburb , and like the title of this post suggests, it’s a virtual pet adventure game! Furdiburb is a virtual pet, puzzle, and adventure game mashed into one. Players care for their newly adopted pet by feeding and cleaning him. The pet never dies. Family/kid-friendly.

Animals in the tri-state area are euthanized daily, rescue groups are unable to save as many lives as they wish, and animals spend years in boarding kennels while awaiting adopters to fall in love with them. There is an estimated 3-4million pets euthanized each year in US animal shelters. Many of these boarding animals are forgotten.
