Thank you for being a MickaCoo supporter! We are honored and inspired by your generosity.
Thanks to you, Aurora, the young racing pigeon who survived catastrophic injury and neglect, has been healed. She is safe and loved and grateful to be alive! She is happy to have both her feet facing in the same direction and proud to be able to stand tall and walk! (Aurora's update)
Thanks to you, Blossom, a King pigeon bred to be squab, found sick and stray- struggling to survive the streets of San Francisco, is alive and well. She overcame a life-threatening strangulated hernia and is now adopted! She's married to a feisty pigeon named Mr. Stinker and is cherished by her person and him both. (Awesome Blossom)
Thanks to you, when baby pigeon Dylan, too weak and young to self-feed was facing death at the shelter, we were able to step in and save his life, winning his ardent devotion and loyalty. (Dylan's story)
Your donations mean we are here to help these gentle, sensitive birds whose lives hang in the balance. Every day we help guide Good Samaritans who've found a grounded bird; every week we're called to take on the foster and vet care for injured or ill shelter birds that will otherwise be killed. We coach potential adopters about the plight and potential of homeless pigeons and doves and we empower them to create safe aviaries that provide meaningful quality of life for the birds that others have abandoned. We advocate at every opportunity and we are seeing progress. MickaCoo is creating compassion where there used to be indifference, or worse.
We couldn't fill this gap without your help and we are very grateful to you!
Thank you for supporting MickaCoo Pigeon & Dove Rescue.
P.S. Tomorrow morning, Wednesday 10/15, starting at 6 AM PST, is the last GlobalGiving Bonus Match Day of the year. If you are able to make another donation, your gift will earn a much needed extra +30% for the birds. (Please donate early. The bonus match money goes fast.) Thank you!
