🦜 What Parrot Rescues Aren’t: Part 2
We aren’t a bunch of mean girls having a popularity contest. We don’t wear pink on Wednesdays, and this certainly isn’t Mean Girls: Rescue Edition. 😂
Rescue is not a competition to see who can take in the most surrenders, save the most birds, or get the most recognition. We aren’t here to compete with one another, tear each other down, or make another rescue look bad to make ourselves look better.
We are a team.
We may have different approaches, different resources, different experiences, and different opinions, but at the end of the day, our mission is the same: to help the parrots who need us.
There are more than enough birds needing rescue, and no single rescue can do it all. We need each other. We should be sharing resources, offering support, working together, and celebrating each other’s successes instead of treating one another like competition.
The birds don’t care whose rescue name is on the paperwork. They don’t care who gets the credit. They just need someone willing to show up for them.
Let’s stop competing and start collaborating. There is room for all of us, and the birds benefit when we work together.
Rescue isn’t a popularity contest. It’s a responsibility, a commitment, and a shared mission. ❤️🦜
