URGENT: Racing Pigeon In Hollywood, FL Needs To Be Picked UpFirstimer's mother has found and rescued a racing pigeon in Hollywood, FL. I gave Firstimer the contact info for the club secretary, and she made contact and has been told that the owner of the bird does not want to have it back. Firstimer has no internet capability right now, so I am posting for her.
If anyone is near enough to meet up with Firstimer's Mom, please PM me for her contact information. She is not able to care for the bird for too long. I do not know the condition of the bird at this time. Thanks in advance for any assistance! Terry

Hello everyone! I have internet again.
The deal with the Racing Pigeon is that, my mother found it on top of a phone booth in a Wallgreens parking lot and it had suddenly turned dark and rainy that night (the night of the 28th ) so the pigeon had set up camp right there, well my mother saw it had bands and she took it home. As Terry mentioned, we were able to contact the right people and turns out that the original owner didn’t want the bird, so he gave it away, and after a while the second owner didn’t want it, so they set it free to the world. The sweet pigeon is very tame and is in great condition. I had my mother check the first things we check when we find a pigeon, and all sounds great. Just seemed that it could not travel anymore due to the weather in south FL right now. My mother has it in her bathroom because she has other birds and a dog and her room mate has 5 cats. She said the feathered friend is eating well and drinking fine, and pretty much is just waiting to go someplace to call home. My mother feels very bad that no one wants it right now, and she feels bad that it’s in a bathroom. I have told her to hold tight and we were working on finding it a loving home. I have a description of the bird and if you would like to PM me you can and I can give you her phone numbers or I can give you mine. I also have unlimited cell phone minutes, so I can call you back so you don’t have to pay for the call. Terry, thank you so much for all you do, and continue to do. Muah muah oh and thank you to those who wished me a happy birthday on the 13th of September. Hope to hear from you soon. Firstimer...(A.K.A. J.C.)

It's an AU 2008 HRPC bird .. club secretary already contacted and original owner and second owner already declined to retrieve the bird. Deone Roberts at the AU is contacting the zone director to see if there is anybody in the area with a good heart that will assist from the AU.
If we can find someone here on Pigeon-Talk to at least temporarily look after the bird, that would be terrific. This is one that doesn't need to be going back to either of the people who have had it. Terry

My mother can’t keep it because not only is she 70 years old with health issues, but as I said there are too many other animals as it is, and she lives in a apartment.
Everything Terry just said is correct. This is a bird that no one seems to want anymore.  Thank you Terry.

Well, I sent Reti a PM but haven't heard back from her yet. We've got a member that goes by "Grim" and I'm thinking he's in Miami, which is sort of close to your Mom, but someone needs to contact Grim and I'm thinking that Reti has his phone number.

I am close to Hollywood. Grim is close to Treesa, quite a distance from here.
I can care temporary for the bird and ship it to anybody who would want him, but I cannot keep it as much as I would love to. I am way over my head with birds, cats and other critters. Reti
