Rickie's Parrot and Exotic Rescue and Sanctuary of South Florida

Rickie's Parrot and Exotic Rescue and Sanctuary of South Florida THIS IS OUR ONLY PAGE! We are a 501(c)3 Parrot and Exotic Rescue located in the state of Florida. The babies receive all the love and comforts of home. Thank you!

We are here to help and not judge. WE ARE NOT YOUR TYPICAL RESCUE! We service the state of Florida and beyond. Rickie’s Parrot and Exotic Rescue and Sanctuary, Inc., (“RPER”) takes in parrots and exotic animals that many other rescues turn away. We specialize in the special needs, sick, neglected and abused. RPER welcomes these babies knowing that they come with large medical bills as well as phy

sical and emotional damage. RPER provides medical care and works to gain the trust of these babies so that they can be placed into good, loving homes. We also take in those that simply need to be rehomed for personal reasons. We work hard to ensure that the perfect home is found for each one. Those that are deemed not adoptable, remain with us for the rest of their lives. We don’t judge. Life happens. Circumstances change and we understand that. We also work hard educating the public in the care and responsibilities of owning a bird or other exotic animal. If you find a bird and are unsure of what to do, please feel free to contact us. If you would like to keep him./her until the owners are found, we will give you instructions as to how to take care of that bird as well as where to post to find it's owners. If you are unable to care for it, we will take it in and search for it's owners. Please keep in mind, that birds are much list dogs and cats as far as pets...their owners miss them and look for them. Rickie's has medical bills as well as daily bills for taking care of these babies. We can't do it without your help. So, please...if you can see it in your heart...donate..help us to continue helping these babies.

Mr Sassy Pants

10/04/2025

I’m going back tomorrow to work with Mr Sassy Pants some more. If we can pull him by the 15th he can see Dr Clubb when Kevin goes out. When he was first dumped at the market (4-5 mo ago)…he wasn’t as cocky as he is now. About a month ago there was “the change” I went in and was passing out treats like I always do…and a worker pointed at him and said he was being bad. He had changed dramatically but I wouldn’t say he was bad. Scared? Confused? Wondering why “his person” had walked away? Maybe. There’s just something different about him. I don’t think that people should give up on him quite yet. There is a goofy good side still in there.

Please share too. I’m not ready to give up on him yet. I have dodged quite a few bites…I’m not ready…there is still a sweet goofy side there.

I know we said that we would like to pull Mr. Sassy Pants next BUT I ALSO KNOW that we have quite a few cockatoo lovers...

I know we said that we would like to pull Mr. Sassy Pants next BUT I ALSO KNOW that we have quite a few cockatoo lovers here too!!! So…if you would like to help pull either one but would prefer your donation to go towards the male cockatoo just note that when you send in your donation and I will make it happen! We have a long ways to go but I know we can do it!!!!!!!! Greta is safe…and decompressing!!!!! It broke my heart that she literally held my finger the entire drive. 😞 she’s a good girl that deserved so much more.

It’s been a hard day folks. I will upload more videos tomorrow when I’m off the property.

I wanted to wait and post Sam until his labs came back. He does have E. coli which is one of the more common bacterial infections in birds and we see it alot in Florida because of our poor water quality. Doc will be sending out meds for him.

Now more about him. He may be thin due to lack of food. What’s funny…I’m “allowed” to put food in his bowl with my hands but I need to be on my toes when taking the bowl out to wash it. That can result in a bite. I have not been able to get him to step up but his previous owner was a man…so that may have something to do with it.

He is 29 years old per his band hatch year.

He whistles everything from a wolf whistle to show tunes, mimics a cell phone and microwave and blows kisses. I’m sure there is much more lurking inside of him.

If interested in Sam, please email me at [email protected]

Thx everyone!

ONE MORE BAD EXPERIENCE WITH OUT OF STATE ADOPTIONS AND I WILL CUT THEM OFF!!!!! Sam is available through NOT FAULT OF HIS OWN!!!!

10/03/2025

This is the other Blue and Gold there. I got him this toy because he was literally playing with a frayed rope.

10/03/2025

Thank you everyone!!! Will post receipts and more later. We put 300 down on the male and another 200 down on Sassy Pants. I’m going to try to come early on the weekend with treats. Sam is being adopted on Monday so I need to go up there for that. Thank you again everyone!!!!

No wonder she’s stressed!

1. She’s an import which makes her at least 30 years old.

2. She’s at least semi tame! She kept reaching out for my arm on the drive. I finally gave her my finger and she held it the entire way!

Poor thing! I’m going to put her in a cage next to Poppy. They can chill together.

Will be there in another hour if anyone else wants to donate! Thanks everyone!!! lol need to get food Sassy likes so h...

I don’t think the market would have even taken this baby in if it wasn’t for us. Just like Sam…this is going to be a deal between me and the owner. The owner is the one asking for the 1k. Let’s work on getting her out of there first. She doesn’t deserve to live like this and I think you will agree that going back to the owner isn’t a good idea either. I did put 100 on her before I left to keep that from happening. Donations hadn’t started to come through yet. I just did it prayed you all agreed with me.

And heres the thing…if they are willing to take a chance that we may want them..we may give a whole new life to a baby that has been abused or neglected that would be overlooked by others.
