This group of parakeets are social, playful and colorful birds, that are looking for their next home! Parakeets are flock birds, so this friend needs to be adopted in a pair, group or go home to another parakeet!

If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed.

*Before coming to the adoption center, we ask that you have a housing unit ready, in case you end up finding an animal you’d like to adopt.

If you haven’t picked out an enclosure yet, we’d love to help! The Association of Avian Veterinarians has a chart on the minimum cage dimensions that are acceptable for housing the birds we commonly see in our adoption center. As a rule of thumb, get the largest cage you can provide—the bigger the better!

A few important recommendations

SIZE: Wire or mesh cages are preferred that are at least 1.5 to 2 times the wingspan of the bird in all directions. When a bird spreads both wings out, there should be enough room so the wings and tail are not touching any cage bars including top or bottom. The bird should be able to easily spin around on a perch without the tail hitting any cage bars including top/bottom of the cage. The cage should be big enough that the bird can fly with ease from the bottom of the cage to the top without the wings touching any cage bars or any other obstacles (like toys).

BAR SPACING: Make sure the spacing of the bars is small enough that your bird cannot escape! Select a finger or fingers that appear to be the same thickness as the bird’s wing. When checking bar spacing, if your finger or fingers (thickness) fits between the cage bar spacing, then the cage bar spacing is not proper for that bird (a bird could get harmed).

We suggest covering wire mesh platforms or bottoms with a layer of newspaper or other solid surface as exposed wire can cause abrasions to feet, as well as possibly catch and break toes and tails

Companion Birds should receive at least a half hour to an hour of interaction time with their human family; such as training, playing, and/or socially interacting.

Introducing the ever-so-gracious and slightly whisker-greyed, Zoey! At the grand age of 20, Zoey is our in-house philosopher, specializing in the art of relaxation and the ancient practice of sunbathing. Don’t let her age fool you; she’s as spry in spirit as a kitten, albeit with a touch more wisdom and a preference for early bedtimes.

Zoey’s hobbies include seeking out the coziest corners for her naps, perfecting the art of the gentle ear scratch appreciation purr, and offering sage advice to younger cats about the importance of regular naps. She does prefer to offer this advice via Zoom instead of in person however, cats are not her thing and she would prefer to live without them.

Zoey does have hyperthyroidism that is managed with daily medication and has early stage kidney disease. A good relationship with a vet is a plus. She’s looking for a serene kingdom to rule over, where her subjects (that’s you!) will shower her with love, cozy nooks, and the occasional sunbeam to bask in.

If your home is in need of a dignified, affectionate, and divine feline overlord, Zoey promises to fill that role with grace and a touch of catitude. Visit Zoey today during our open hours and let her show you that sometimes, the best things in life come with a little bit of fur and a lot of purrs.

Trust us – she’s even cuter in person! Muffin is an older pony mare who is looking for a companion-only home with her best friend Buggsy.

Muffin was a bit shy and avoidant of touch when we first met her, but she has fallen into a great rhythm with us and is now easy to halter in her stall, lead to her paddock, and catch for turn in. She is an easy keeper and seems quite hardy and healthy! Muffin does well living out 24/7 and stalling overnight with day time turn out. She is super flexible!

We wouldn’t go so far as to say she is a kid-safe pony yet, but it is possible she could get there with some time and patience. She has been straightforward for us to work with and hasn’t offered a bite, kick, or rear. She does require an experienced handler for vet care, but has also improved greatly for this type of handling in the time we’ve had her. She stands well for the farrier and tolerates grooming – we think she’ll enjoy it one day when she finds a family who will dote on her!

Meet Babe! This lovable pig is ready to find his special home. Babe loves spending time laying around his pen, laying in his wallow on hot days, or munching on snacks. Given his lazier personality, Babe needs to have his diet carefully monitored. He takes a while to warm up to new people but once he does, he likes to spend time with his people. Babe would love to find a home where he can take his time settling in and not rushing into new situations. His new home would also help him continue his weight loss journey so he can live a healthy life. If you think Babe would be a good fit for your family, submit an adoption inquiry!

More about Destiny:

I am a sweet, easy-going mature lady, and will make a mellow, low-key companion for my adopter.

We have no history of what I might be like living in a home, but staff says I have been lovely since I have been here at the shelter.

I will need a slow introduction to my new home, litter box, and any existing pets while I settle in and become comfortable in my new surroundings. I adjusted fairly quickly here at the shelter, but my adopter should take it slowly with me and give me time to settle in at my own pace.

I am a senior lady and potential adopters will be given access to my medical records.

The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon – 3:00pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.

Compatibility:
Cats: Possibly, no history
Dogs: Possibly, no history
Kids: Possibly, no history: cat-savvy, mellow

Gary is an adorable 3 year old Nigerian Dwarf wether. He is very shy, so would do best in a home with an experienced adopter who can handle him and help him warm up to people over time. He deserves a loving home where he can relax and learn that humans are his friends!

Goats are herd animals and need the company of other goats to be healthy and happy. We are looking for adopters who can take at least a pair of goats or have an existing herd at home that they’d like to expand. Interested adopters should have housing for their goats to include proper shelter from the elements and fencing to contain these notorious escape artists. As they say – if it can’t hold water, it can’t hold a goat!

All goats are up to date on their medical needs, but will need routine maintenance moving forward for things like hoof trims and yearly vaccines.

Interested in adding a hilarious and sweet group of goats to your home? Fill out an adoption form by clicking the “Inquire” button and a staff member will reach out to discuss!
