Meet Nike!
This young, domestic pigeon came to us in dire condition, emaciated and practically knocking on deaths door. Thankfully, we were able to nurse Nike back to health with adequate shelter and nutrition, and now he/she is happy and continuing the road to better health!
Nike was understandably anxious at first, and took a bit to settle. However, with some time has grown braver and braver each day, while getting more used to our presence! Due to the rough start, Nike will need a home that could give provide them more fly time, to help bring back the muscle lost.
Nike is a curious bird, and has been thoroughly enjoying watching our adoptable rabbits hop around and wondering what kind of creatures they may be! On sunny days, Nike loves to spend time on the patio feeling the warm breeze underneath their wings!
Pigeons are intelligent and gentle birds that are relatively easy to care for although they do require regular cleaning, special balanced diets and enrichment like all other pets! If you have experience with pigeons, or are curious but adopting one, contact the shelter today!
