Pepe's Story
Pepe is one of our Congo African Greys here at A Helping Wing, and he’s truly something special! He’s an independent guy who entertains himself for hours with an impressive array of sounds and whistles (you’ll never need to buy a sound machine again). He’s been making great progress — stepping up to come out of his cage, exploring his play area, and even allowing a few head scritches when he’s in the mood.<br/><br/>Pepe isn’t a “step off the truck and snuggle” kind of bird — and that’s okay! Building trust with a parrot is about patience and respect, and Pepe is looking for a person who understands that being allowed into a parrot’s personal bubble is something you earn over time.<br/><br/>What Pepe Needs:<br/><br/>A calm, experienced home (previous parrot experience preferred)<br/>Someone willing to commit to multiple visits to build a bond before adoption<br/>A home that understands African Grey quirks — they’re clever, sensitive, and thrive on routine and enrichment<br/><br/>Our Adoption Process:<br/><br/>Complete our online application at www.ahelpingwing.org.<br/>Provide disease testing results for any current birds.<br/>Home visit (to ensure a safe environment).<br/>Multiple visits here at the rescue to build a connection — think of it as “parrot speed dating.”<br/><br/>If you’re ready to take the time to win over a brilliant, quirky, and talkative companion, Pepe might just be your guy.
