  1. Sick or Injured Pigeon and Dove Discussions
    I found a pigeon presumably hit by a car or attacked by something. His legs are tucked up and don’t move well, one wing is bloodied and possibly broken, and there was a bit of bleeding on his chest, but it is clean. I’m in Lisbon, and the bird rescues near me don’t take pigeons. How can I help...

    I found a baby dove at the park. It's so small if I hadn't almost stepped on it I would have noticed it was there. It does appear to have a broken wing and has blood in one of the nostrils. Is that a very bad sign? I've already started with the heating pad, looking for the right temperature...
  3. Wild or 'Feral' Pigeons
    My dog caught a pigeon and my dad managed to get it before my dog killed it. There is no blood on the pigeon but I believe its wing or wings are broken. I put it in a cage away from any animals in a dark room already. Is there some where I can call to take it so it can get help? Please let me...

    Hi there. I have taken in an injured woodpigeon and need some advice. The poor thing has had quite a bad time. It firstly fell down my neighbour's chimney, then out the window (when neighbour assumed it could fly and ushered it out), and then had a brief altercation with a cat (I think it mostly...

    Hi, I have a pigeon that was just attached by a cat. He has a broken wing with an open wound, bone is sticking out. Pigeon friendly rescue said they are not able to help. Last one I took to them after cat attack was put to sleep unfortunately. Our car is in service now. I have applied French...

    Hello to whomever lays eyes on this sincere request for help, I found tonight, in our garden, a mature pigeon laying as if crouched and unable to fly away. It appears to have broken its wing, and seeing as cats frequently roam our neighborhood and garden during the night, I took it in. I found...

    Hi All, I spotted a pigeon being tormented by a cat yesterday morning. He was frantically flapping his wings but couldn't get away.

    Can anyone tell me what this yellow growth might be on a birds shoulder area. I don't unfortunately have actual responsibility for this pigeon, I just see it each week when I go to help clean and feed some injured birds at this local shelter. This pigeon has an injured wing and has been in this...

    am very sad to say that the bird has passed away earlier today. After looking after it for 6 years its gonna get some used to it not being around. I had taken to the vet the day before and the boil, bleeding were all from the old broken wing wound which had also became very infectious, although...

    I got 2 free fantails yesterday, other from having mites they looked fine. The cock seems to have a broken wing, trails it on the ground and holds it away from his body but only some of the time. He can fly not too high but that is because they had his wings clipped. I can't see or feel any...

  20. I found a pigeon or dove - now what?
    I was at work last night when I saw a pigeon just outside the restaurant I work at in a small patch of grass. I was surprised he made no attempt to leave when I went up to him. I asked other employees if they had seen him, and they said he had been there for the last three nights. No one...
