Rescue Maintenance: medium-risk volunteering

We require assistance with bird care tasks. If you are unable to perform a specific task, we'll gladly find an alternative for you!

One or more of the things you may be asked to do:

1. Dust TVs, tops, and table surfaces; utilize a broom for room corners (acknowledging the importance of dusting for birds with sensitive respiratory systems).

2. Refill spray bottles

3. Wipe down windows

4. Light to Deep cage cleaning inside

5. Pulling cages outside to deep clean and shower parrots

6. Sweeping and mopping

7. Clean the bathrooms

Advisements:

• Taking videos and/or pictures from within the rescue is not allowed.

• Parrots can and will bite to protect their cage.  Keep your fingers away from them, no matter how they charm or entice you to “shake” hands. This will be enforced!

• Don’t touch or lean on the birds’ cages unless directed to do so with your job.

• Minimize distracting and/or loud noises such as your cell phone, chewing gum, or jewelry. 

• Keep your voice “soft” and there is no need to raise your voice since they can hear very well.

• No hats should be worn around the birds since they universally react to them.
