RELINQUISHING YOUR BIRD
The Gabriel Foundation has three programs for relinquishment - Adoption, Long Term Foster and Sanctuary. To begin the process we require completion of he Client Bird History and the Parrot Acquisition Contract.
The demand for incoming birds is high and the wait list time will vary by species and circumstances. The completed Client Bird History and Parrot Acquisition Contract returned to the Relinquishment Coordinator will put your bird(s) on the waiting list. Once the paperwork is received, you will be contacted and given an estimate of when you might expect an opening in Quarantine Quarantine opens to take in new birds approximately 4 times a year. Exceptions and special arrangements for emergency situations can be discussed directly with the Director of Relinquishments, Karen VanderHyde, she can be reached at (303)629-5900 ext. 216.
If you are experiencing behavior issues with your bird(s) and feel that placement with The Gabriel Foundation is your only option, we encourage you to consider a Behavior Consultation. We have many resources for you and are willing to work with you to try and make changes for your bird that will allow them to stay in their current home, or at least make the waiting time easier.
