A Helping Wing is dedicated to finding loving, adoptive homes for unwanted parrots. Our goal is to educate families in the care and responsibilities of proper care of birds. We accept unwanted parrots and adopt them to qualified individuals who can provide them safe and loving homes.
Parrots are wonderful, incredible, charming creatures with strong emotions and superior intelligence. But they are also the most demanding and misunderstood companion animals.
At times, people don’t understand what they are getting themselves into when they first purchase a parrot. This wonderful experience often turns into something different and very sad for both people and parrots.
Sometimes people buy parrots for the wrong reasons - they look cute or they can talk. However, lives change - divorce, graduation, job loss, illness - and the relationship becomes more than what a person can deal with. Parrots are messy, they bite, they’re destructive and they scream!
