A Heartfelt Thank You! 🐦💕

I'm beyond grateful to Pet.kiwi for their incredible donation! A box arrived filled with an amazing array of bird toys, bird food, reptile and fish food, and vitamin powder. This generous gift is a lifesaver, especially after we lost many parrot toys during our recent move. Our parrots are currently feeling a bit down, but these new toys will surely bring them joy! 😊

With 19 parrots calling our place home, we go through toys quickly, so this donation is a huge blessing. To be honest, the move hasn't been without its challenges - we've faced quite a few low points and unexpected hiccups. But this amazing gift really turned things around and made my month! 🙏 It's wonderful to know that there are kind and supportive companies like Pet Kiwi who care about our feathered friends and understand the importance of keeping them happy and healthy. Thank you again, Pet Kiwi, for your kindness and generosity! You're truly an amazing company!

Arlo's Adventure! 🦎❤️

Some of you might remember Arlo, the lovable blue-tongue lizard who joined our family earlier this year. As a rescue, he was living with a friend of mine before coming to stay with us when they moved out. My friend and I invested countless hours into gaining Arlo's trust and encouraging a healthier diet - which, let's be honest, has been a challenge given his picky eating habits!

When we moved houses, I knew I'd be juggling a lot with the other animals and the new home, and I wouldn't be able to give Arlo the attention he deserved. So, I reached out to a wonderful friend who kindly agreed to foster him. And boy, did she work her magic!

It turns out the Arlo I sent over wasn't quite the grumpy lizard I thought he was! He's blossomed into a snuggle bug, loving every minute with her husband - especially snuggling up around his feet at night. Although he's still a bit grumpy at times, he's come a long way, and his new foster family has discovered he loves soft beds and men's company!

The biggest hurdle is still his food - but his new family is crushing it, even managing to get him to eat a healthy meal or two! I'm beyond grateful they could give Arlo the one-on-one time he needed to come out of his shell. Thanks to them, this beautiful boy is thriving!

WE'VE MOVED!

We’ve finally made it! Our animal rescue has officially moved into its new digs! It was a wild ride relocating 19 parrots, 3 ducks, 1 goose, 1 possum, 3 cats, 18 reptiles, and a marine fish tank. Huge thanks to my partner Liam and his family for their epic help – we owe you one!

Of course, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. The trailer decided to catch on fire (thanks for staying calm, Mike), the big bird aviary didn’t survive the move, and we broke a few bulbs along the way 😂. But everyone’s safe, and that’s all that matters.

The animals are settling in (except for the cats – they’re still giving us the cold shoulder), and now it’s time for the fun part: unpacking and organizing. We’ve got power sorted, but water and plumbing are next on the list. And yes, we’re crashing the in-laws for showers until then 😆.

Massive thanks to Lucy, Mike and Brandon for making this crazy move so much easier. And to Lucy, thanks for letting me borrow the chicken coop for Pancake and the ducks 🦆. We’ll miss the old place, but we’re stoked to turn this new spot into an amazing sanctuary.

Thanks, Dad, for putting up with us during this chaos and for being so understanding about the animal madness 🌈.

Sorry to everyone we haven’t gotten back to yet – it’s been hectic, but we’ll catch up soon!

*Special Budgie Buddy Wanted! 🐦*

We're on a mission to find the perfect feathered friend for a lovely family's little one! They're looking for a budgie to join their existing bird, who's a carrier of avian gastric yeast. Don't worry, their current budgie is thriving and happy, but they'd love a new friend who shares the same "germs" 😉.

If you have a budgie with avian gastric yeast who's in need of a forever home, we'd love to hear from you! Let's find the perfect buddy for this sweet family. Get in touch with us, and let's make some birdie magic happen!

*Our Rescue Oasis is Taking Shape!*

We're just a week away from moving into our new home, and it's all coming together beautifully. From an empty paddock to a thriving animal rescue, it's been an incredible journey. I'm beyond grateful to have my partner by my side, who's been putting in the hard work while I'm at work caring for our animals.

The deck is finally finished, and it's stunning. But, of course, no journey is perfect, and we've had some bumps along the way. A trip to the small claims court might be on the cards, but we're not letting it dampen our spirits.

We've had the pleasure of working with some fantastic companies, and we'll be sharing more about them soon. Meanwhile, life at the rescue has been business as usual – adoptions, surrenders, and lots of love. ( We still have a number of animals looking for forever homes)

It's been a wild ride, but we're excited for the new chapter ahead. Stay tuned for more updates from our rescue oasis!

CATCH UP TIME

We've been a bit slack with updates, so here's a quick rundown of what's been happening:

- Autumn, our beautiful ringneck parrot, joined us after being surrendered. She's still getting used to her new surroundings, but she's loving her veggies and will make a fantastic aviary bird once she's microchipped.
- Cloud, a sweet duck, also came to us after outgrowing her apartment home. Unfortunately, she's dealing with rickets, but with a balanced diet and some TLC, she's on the mend. She's enjoying the company of our other two ducks.
- Savannah, our stunning leopard gecko, has been pre-approved for a loving home where she'll be spoiled rotten!

We're currently looking for forever homes for:

- 5 leopard geckos
- 1 blue-tongue skink
- 2 juvenile water dragons
- 1 budgie
- 1 lovebird
- 1 ringneck parrot

On the home front, our road is finally complete, and we're eagerly awaiting the delivery of our cabins/home. We're in the midst of a frantic packing session, getting ready for our move-out date on June 7th. Stay tuned for more updates on our big move!

WONDERFUL FRIENDS

We're overflowing with gratitude for Fraya and Dylan, who selflessly lent a hand yesterday to help us tackle the chaos. Their willingness to roll up their sleeves and dive into the mess was a huge relief! Fraya even took the time to microchip our two juvenile water dragons, which was a massive help. As the owner of Exoticare VN and a licensed reptile microchiper, Fraya's expertise is truly a game-changer.

We can't thank them enough for their kindness and support. And, let's be real, it was one of those days where I didn't exactly look my best – still in my PJs most of the day! 😂 But Fraya and Dylan didn't judge; they just pitched in.

If you're in need of reptile microchipping Fraya's your go-to expert. We're so lucky to have her in our corner.

Thanks again, Fraya and Dylan! We're honored to have friends like you who are always willing to lend a helping hand. We know we'll be calling on you again soon!

*Good Things Take Time*

Today, Nippy, our amazing blue-tongue lizard, went to her forever home. You may remember her from our posts a few years ago when she arrived in our rescue with severe stuck shed, missing toes, and old burns covering her body. Nippy was traumatized, and her fear and pain led her to lash out – earning her name after a memorable incident when she chomped down on my neck and belly!

Despite her rough start, Nippy blossomed into a sweet and gentle soul. She became a staple at our expos and events, teaching people about proper reptile care and charming everyone she met.

The journey to find Nippy's forever home took time. In 2023, we met an amazing person at a pet expo who fell in love with Nippy. She returned the next year with her partner, and it was clear they were smitten. They didn't rush into adoption, instead taking the time to educate themselves on proper care and building a beautiful enclosure perfect for Nippy.

Today, Nippy embarked on her new life with the perfect family. It may have taken years to find, but we don't mind waiting for the perfect match. We want our animals to find their perfect forever homes, not just any home. I'm overjoyed to see Nippy start this new chapter, and I may have shed a few tears – but they were tears of joy knowing she's found her people. Her new family even created a page for her, so I can keep up with her adventures!
Good things take time, and Nippy's story is proof of that.
