Beaded Bird Toys For A Good Cause

Posted by Heather Manning On June - 19 - 2010

To Mr(s) FTC (wo)Man:  I am getting nothing for this post.  I just think this is the sweetest thing.

There is a 10 year old girl on Ebay who is making these cute beaded bird toys.  They are only 99 cents (plus 99 cents flat rate shipping).  I got 2 of them, one for each cage and I think I will order more just because of what she is doing it for.

She is making them to donate the money for food and supplies for parrot rescues.  I don’t know if many of you know that along with dogs and cats, birds get abused too.  It’s horribly sad.  These wonderful rescues come in and take on these parrots that are neglected, abused, who have started plucking out their feathers, damaging themselves.  Those are the ones that they are able to get to in time.  There are too many who die, just like other animals in horrible conditions.  This isn’t necessarily the rescue they support (it’s just one of the many that I know of), but The Gabriel Foundation has a video that shows some of those majestic animals in horrible cruel conditions.  It’s very hard to watch.

Just search parrot rescue on You Tube.  It will break your heart seeing the conditions these birds were kept in, but it will also lift your spirits when you see the parrots come alive under the right care.

It’s for poor birds like these that I am so impressed by this little girl.  She could make these and keep the money for herself, but she wants to put it towards helping these birds.

Here’s one of the ones that I bought –

I would have taken a picture of the other one, but I didn’t think about it until I already had it hanging from the back by their rope perch. :)

If you have birds, you know they love beaded toys.  Take a few dollars and buy some from this girl.  Help her help support parrots that need it.

Get your bird a few beaded bird toys here!.
