Martha

Hi! I'm Martha. Although I was given a girl's name, I'm actually a boy. Sometimes people call me Marty.

I'm a gorgeous Citron Crested cockatoo. While I'm an awesome bird, I do have one quirk. And it's a pretty big one: I absolutely, positively cannot live in a household with males. I do not trust males and don't discriminate among them. I will attack you if you're a male and this is the reason that I must go to an all-female home. If you're still reading, let me tell a little more about myself.

I love women and can be very affectionate with them. I absolutely love towels and will play in them for hours, if given the chance. I need to go to a home that can provide me with lots of boxes and bags to play in, as I adore them! I will dig around and tear them up with relish. I am very curious by nature, and as such, need to be kept under a watchful eye. I have a fantastic strut and will show it to you if you let me out of my cage and set me on the floor. I love under-wing rubs, have a great laugh and also make lots of kissing noises.

If your household demographics fit my requirements, please contact the Refuge to learn more about me. I promise, I have lots of love to give to the right people!

Kisses,
Martha

Our Mission is Simple

To work in joint cooperation with all avian rescue groups to try and eliminate the need for rescue groups by educating the public about aviculture issues. Until that is accomplished, we will provide a sanctuary for those unfortunate parrots that are in need of a home.
