Bruce's Story

Bruce is an approximately 5-year-old DNA-Sexed Male Blue Crowned Conure. Bruce was surrendered because he was barbering his feathers and his owner could not figure out why. We've worked very closely with our vets on finding out why he chews on his feathers. We have discovered that Bruce has an enlarged heart that will require medication given twice daily. The vet does believe this contributes to his feather destructive behavior. Due to his heart condition, he will need a low stress environment. We do have Bruce's cage decked out with different toys to help distract him. He is tame and handlable and LOOOVES attention.<br/><br/>Bruce's adoption fee is $400.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adoption, please go to www.centerforanimalrehab.org, read our Adoption Policies, and fill out the Adoption Application. Once your application is approved, we will set up a meet and greet with you/your family.<br/><br/>We are located in Waukesha, WI and do not ship. All adopters must live within a 100 mile radius. We do not adopt birds to households that have the opposite gender birds.

Center for Animal Rehabilitation & Education Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Adoption applications must be completed online. There are separate applications based on the type of pet you're interested in - bird, dog, or small animal. All the applications can be found here. Upon receipt, your application will be reviewed by our Board members for approval. Processing applications may involve background checks, veterinarian references, communication with landlord(s) as applicable, and generally will be completed within one week. Additional data may be requested such as: pictures of existing bird cages, video tours of the home, or a home visit. Applications with incomplete data may be delayed or denied. If approved, one of our Adoption Coordinators will reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet appointment with the suitable bird(s)/dog(s)/small animal(s). This enables us to assign you a dedicated Adoption Coordinator who will assist you in finding the perfect family member. They will ensure all your questions are addressed before committing to a new pet. Your Adoption Coordinator can also assist in selecting a cage, perches, toys, and pet food during your appointment. We adopted this model in 2020 and firmly believe it's the most effective way to serve you and match our animals with their forever home. In some cases, more than one meeting with the animal(s) may be required, at CARE's discretion. Only individuals with approved adoption applications and current volunteers are permitted to handle our birds, even through the cage bars. Ensuring the safety of our birds is our utmost priority, and failure to comply with our policies may result in being asked to leave. If we don't currently have a pet that is the right fit, your application remains on file with CARE: three months for birds and small animals, one year for dogs.
