Ollie the four-year-old yellow parakeet is an active, talkative and fun bird looking for a loving guardian along with his best friend Allie the rescued sparrow.
Allie was found as an abandoned sparrow chick. Her rescuer continued to leave her for her parents to find her, but she was suffering, she brought her inside and bonded her with her parakeet.
When the woman moved in with friends who have cats and dogs that might threaten the birds, the bonded pair was relinquished to Friends of Petraits Rescue to find the family of his dreams.
In their former home, they were allowed out of their cage daily to fly around their apartment.
Parakeets are the smallest of the parrot species and the most common captively kept pet bird. Sparrows are native and typically live in flocks, so Allie and Ollie would probably welcome other parakeets to their flock.
Allie and Ollie are available including their spacious two foot wide, by three foot tall cage with toys, food, treats and perches for $125.
They are currently being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood. To meet and adopt these beautiful birds, please contact [email protected] for an adoption application.
