I believe Elizabeth is close to having finalized apps for three adopters...a single box to AZ and then three birds probably going to the same destination....... Indiania/Ohio.

$$$$$


For those of you who were not able to adopt Kings but have been monitoring this Care-a-Van and had intended to assist a bit financially, that can now begin. Checks of any amount can be sent to and in care of Mickaboo Bird Rescue; P.O. Box 697; San Jose, CA; 95016-0697....with a notation on the check for "King Care-a-Van". Elizabeth then will have the use of those funds to pay for boxes and shipping and where necessary, the adoption donation.

When the first bird or two get boxed and shipped, I suspect each time will get a little easier...BUT...it is alot to ask Elizabeth to physically gather the Kings from their various shelter and foster locations, box them, coordinate with the recipient and get them to the departure site...any PT people in her area who could help with the actual logistics once n a while or?

(Keep those applications coming...6 Kings adopted in Phase I, 4 more "spoken for" in Phase II....and while we'll call that a good start, there are still 20 or more on the wait list.)

Wasn't there someone who wanted 10 of them or something?

Count me in on being able to help with the actual task of boxing and shipping. As much as I totally hate driving into San Francisco, and avoid it at all costs, I would venture in to help out some Kings.


Dear San Francisco,
I hate you. I love Oakland. Pthhht.
Signed,
Kari Jo

heh.

There is a potential adopter in Georgia who was ready to take a bunch but I have not heard whether the application is submitted and approved. He may be Phase III...

Ahhh... Thanks KariJo!!!! ((( Hugs TO you!))) I do believe the single bird coming to AZ is ALLLLL MINE!!!!.... and possibly a squeaker at that! So give the lil' one an extra ..."take care" squeeze before ya send him on his way! I'll be worried sick until hes here!

Haven't heard the "official" word on the adoption app. BUT I'm fairly certain... so...... with that said! Yippie!!! Ooooo---hhhhh ... I'm excited!

Just can't thank you ALL enough.... for making this whole thing possible .... Thanks! Don and I have donated a little extra; its not much but I hope it helps a little. Please,Let me know what I can do from my end!

Kippermom, I haven't PM'ed you yet ... with my info. because I haven't heard The Official word... BUT MY fingers are ready to let ya know! LOL.....
