Patter w/Snowball's Story

Do you hear that? The pitter patter of your heart beating? That's love--love for sweet Patter here! Patter was found on someone's lawn, nearly at death's door due to being unable to survive in the wild. He was severely emaciated, dehydrated, absolutely fighting for her life. He was scooped up and sent in an Uber to our magnificent Care Director, Jill, who took the reins from Patter and fought to keep him alive. After fluids tube feedings, and rest, Patter made a strong recovery, gaining his weight back day by day. He's now strong & full of energy & has been promoted to be in a foster aviary. After how hard he fought to live, we think he's earned a forever home of his own.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/
