Mushu, a blue bar homer stands in his aviary in front of a colorful rope perch

Sponsor Mushu

Mushu’s start in life was anything but kind. Rejected by the pigeon racing industry before he was even old enough to fly well, he was sold as live bait for hunting dog training—his wings clipped so he couldn’t escape.

But Mushu did escape. A compassionate bystander rescued him, and we treated him for pneumonia, lice, and more. Today, he’s a bubbly, chirpy bird surrounded by friends and freedom.

💖 Mushu was treated like he was disposable. Now he’s living proof that every pigeon deserves love.

Sponsor Mushu

When you sponsor an animal, you are supporting their long term care through monthly givings. This covers the cost of their food, housing, and bedding  as well as the average cost of vet bills . Becoming a sponsor to an animal means that our sanctuary has the security in mind that we can cover the current expenses of our residents and aids in our decision making for if we can take in a new intake by having financial security for our existing residents.  

The first month you sponsor an animal and receive through email:

* A certificate of sponsorship
* An adorable photo of your feathered friend

Through mail (for donors covering a week or month of care):

*A cute card with your sponsored animal on it

For All Sponsorship Levels:

Quarterly you will receive updates on your friend (March, June, September, and December). Please note that you will only receive these updates if you are currently sponsoring the animal. 

When you sponsor the animal, please write a note to us in the additional info section that includes the name of the person you are gifting the sponsorship program to, their address, and any note you want to provide to them.

Please Note:

* Your donation may be distributed to help multiple animals at the sanctuary.
* Animals may be sponsored by more than 1 person.
* This donation does not give you any rights to the animal being sponsored or enable you to make decisions about their care. Sponsoring is not adopting the animal.
