It saddens me to post this. But due to personal reason. I will no longer be boarding or grooming. I will be shutting this page down in the very near future. I'll leave it up to give people time to see it. Best of luck to all of you. I will miss you all. -Karen

Due to some unforseen circumstances, we have had to close our store location. Without the space for any more rescues. We can not take anymore in for an unforseen amount of time. We love what we do and have loved the babies you have adopted from us. Please know we gave it 100% to the 1000s of animals we have rescued over the years. We feel good about the impact we have made in the animal world. We have educated so many people and gave so many, a new best friend and family member. If we ended up with your baby due to a bad situation, thank you for trusting us. We spent 1000s of hours screening new families for all of the animals that came through our facility over the years to make sure they went to a good home. Thank you for all your love and support over the years. If you have one of our babies. Give them kisses from us. We will hold each and every one of them in hearts for the rest of our lives! The Bird House and More LLC page will be kept open. But, this one will eventually be closed down.

A dear friend and loyal customer had to make one of the hardest decisions of her life. After 17 years, she decided her beloved AG needed somewhere where he could to get more love and attention than she was able to give him. We are so grateful and honored, She picked us as his forever home. Everyone say hello to our newest flock member, Stormy! Stormy will not ever be available for adoption. He is a permanent resident.

Update on Maggie the B&G Macaw. Surgery was touch and go. She stopped breathing several times during surgery and had to be Recessitated. She is out and recovering. The next 72 hours are critical. She will be going back and forth with us over the next few days so we can keep a close eye on her. At this point we are not comfortable leaving her at the store without supervision. So she will be in our home. Although she may have pr*****ed at some point with her previous owner. What we were seeing was not a prolapse. Maggie had a massive hernia that was completely twisted around her intestines. Dr. Scott said most likely was caused by the bound egg. He did what he could to repair the area without damaging her intestines. We are praying she makes makes a full recovery. If you could keep her in your thoughts and prayers, we would greatly appreciate it.

Adopted:

Update on this beautiful girl. She is still here and doing great! Owners have not come forward at this time. She still has several weeks before her quarantine is up. But, she is doing great and has gained her weight back and has tons of energy! She is flying around her cage and talking to the other birds in the shop non stop. :)

WARNING: Some images may be graphic!

Meet Maggie, Maggie is approximately 30 years old and NOT avail for adoption at this time, nor is she out for public view. Her previous owner has not been doing well over the last few years. Over the weekend, she called us, stating we needed to come get Maggie. They were not expecting her to live past the weekend, and Maggie needed medical attention. 3 weeks ago, Maggie got eggbound and took the egg out herself and is suffering from some injuries and infection. Maggie is going to require some medical attention. But, we still love her S.C.A.R.S and all.

We have been back and forth on the phone with Dr. Scott l, devising a treatment plan for her. Pictured below is the cage she has been living in as well. Please keep your negative comments to yourself. We are aware of the conditions of the cage. And she is no longer in it. It is out back if someone would like it for scrap. Please do NOT take it and put another animal in it! Please call us 317-825-3030 if you would like to make a donation to help with Maggie's treatment. At this time, the amount needed is unknown, but every little but helps! Thank you for your support ❤️ Donation QR code is in the comment section.
