ARCHIMEDES & MACADAMIA's Story

Say hello to Macadamia, our vibrant blue Quaker, and Archimedes, our playful green-cheek Conure! This bonded pair is the ultimate dynamic duo — full of personality, energy, and endless chatter. Wherever one goes, the other is sure to follow, and together they’ll keep your home lively and full of joy. Breed: Green Cheek Conure & Blue Quaker Parrot Location: Sanford, NC Must Foster to Adopt Archimedes came to us as a surrender from a pet store that was closing. He was shy and a little depressed at first, but thanks to Macadamia, he learned how to be a confident, playful bird. She helped bring him out of his shell and taught him the ropes of bird life — and now he’s full of curiosity, personality, and charm. Macadamia has a history of respiratory sensitivities, but she’s strong, happy, and thriving now. She’s full of personality and loves hanging out near her favorite humans (the more social of the pair), chattering away, and interacting with toys and perches. These two love to entertain — they mimic cat meows, laughter, and even the occasional phrases like “what doing?” or “dammit!” They enjoy being near people, but aren’t interested in being handled, preferring to interact from their safe perches. Macadamia and Archimedes are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Because of their unique personalities and needs, extensive bird research and bird proofing of your home is required before adoption, and they are available foster-to-adopt only. Their forever home must respect their personalities, provide space, enrichment, and care, and be ready for their chatter-filled adventures. ?

Rainbow Rescue & Retreat's Adoption Policy

Thank you for your interest in adopting with Rainbow Rescue & Retreat! Our goal is to match our rescues with the right loving homes. As such, we do not process adoptions on a "first available" basis. During this process we ask questions, perform a home visit, and meet & greet to ensure the best possible outcome for everyone involved. There are many factors to take into consideration before adopting an animal. Falling in love with an adorable pet is easy, but it is a big commitment to welcome them into your home and life. 1.) Application: Complete the appropriate adoption application for the animal you are interested in in its entirety. 2.) Screening: Upon receipt of the application we will check all references- personal, veterinary, and the appropriate leasing office/landlord. Please be sure to notify your references we will be contacting them. 3.) Home Visit / Meet & Greet: If references meet standards, we will schedule a home visit to verify the home is a right fit for the animal. Afterwards, a meet-and-greet is scheduled with the potential adopter and their other pet(s). For individuals 25 miles or more from the foster, a $20 fee is required to cover transportation expenses. 4.) Approval: Once the application is approved, the Adoption Agreement must be completed with Verification of Government Issued Photo Identification. 5.) Payment: The adoption fee is due at the time of transferal of ownership. Check-ins occurs two weeks after adoption. Vet checks occur periodically after adoption. FEES: All dogs and cats are up-to-date on vaccinations and flea/tick treatment, wormed, microchipped, and spayed/neutered. Note: If the pet is too young for a spay/neuter, your adoption fee covers the cost of the procedure for when your animal is of age. You will be required to bring cat/dog to our vet for this procedure. This can be done as early as 3 months. We schedule the spay/neuter before the adoption agreement is signed. The adoption is not complete until the animal has been spayed/neutered. Any kitten/puppy not altered by the age of 6 months, must have a vet statement explaining the reason for delay. Any unaltered kitten/puppy must be returned and adoption will not be finalized at six months, unless there is a valid medical reason for delay.) Dogs: $200, Unless otherwise Listed Cats: $150, Unless otherwise Listed Other Small Animals: Please Inquire individually via our Contact Form as small and exotic animals have different requirements.
