Feather Tail Parrot Rescue
'Feather Tail Parrot Rescue' is a non-profit, registered charity. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate & rehome parrots in England, Scotland & Wales.
We are a team of experienced volunteers who each specialise in different species of parrot and are ourselves, parrot owners. We are hugely passionate about the safety and well-being of all parrots and it is that passion that proved to be the driver for us as founders to launch our rescue.
We aim to ensure all of our followers/members are educated on the correct care and diet for their bird. So please feel free to flock to us with anything bird related! We'll be here to help in any way we can!!
We do not sell or breed any parrot that comes into the rescue. All parrots that are adopted remain the sole property of 'Feather Tail Parrot Rescue'.
About the Kiwa Centre
The Kiwa Centre was built in 2017 with the kind generosity of Joe Davenport, who became aware of the plight of these birds when visiting his childhood pet macaw (named Kiwa) at the facility where she had been entrusted many years prior. Joe was horrified at the conditions the birds were enduring, and sought the help of the World Parrot Trust to find a solution. After much consideration, the Kiwa Centre was created, and a huge operation was undertaken to move the birds. Medical examinations were carried out and birds treated for their ailments, including overgrown beaks, malformed feet from standing on cage wire, and respiratory issues from the lack of fresh air and dirty cages. When they arrived at the centre, many of the birds were in a distressing state, and much time and effort has been put in to ensure they have the best possible outcome and future from this situation.
