Adopting a parrot is a massive responsibility. Even though many people feel compelled to help the birds in a rescue, some may not have the resources or long-term ability to permanently do so. However, there is still something people can do to help. Fostering is when a person takes a rescue animal into their home temporarily to help ease the burden of a parrot rescue that may be overcrowded. It can also help that animal get more individualized attention and care in order to prepare it for a new, permanent home.
