Send a fun toy to an exotic bird! Shelters, rescues and bird groups love to provide their birds with toys that encourage movement, exercise, and help prevent boredom and behavioral problems. Not to mention they are a joy for the birds to play with.

Send:

• A Toy: this selection includes one large toy made of wood and rope that clips to a bird cage. Designed for durability this toy is perfect for large birds such as cockatoos or macaws.
• Two Toys: This will give two durably constructed wood block and rope toys, each with a clip to hang from a bird cage. Interactive toys are big bird favorites.
•  A Party Pack: This is a bird's dream! It includes two large durable wooden and rope toys and a wood and rope swing. Birds can hop on the swing and rock back and forth as they play with the wooden balls adorning it. This swing also easily clips to the top of a birdcage.

Unfortunately, many exotic birds end up in shelters or rescues because their owners are unable to give the necessary care, attention, and time they require. These birds often have life spans of 40 to 80 years (The Avian Welfare Coalition)*, making them lifelong companions -  an aspect that some owners may not realize. Additionally, many birds are rescued from situations of abuse or neglect.

Large exotic birds are inherently active and love to chew. They require engagement and stimulation to help fulfill instincts, keep them active and prevent obesity. Birds have a natural instinct to tear things apart with their beak. Providing toys helps keeps birds happy and away from boredom which leads to feather-picking and excessive vocalization**. Large toys can be expensive for shelters and rescues to provide but crucial for the birds' well-being. The gift packs of toys help to satiate their need to forage as well. Toys encourage birds to practice problem solving skills and the variety of textures, sizes and colors creates additional stimulation for a bird**. 

Make a bird's day brighter by sending toys today! These feathered friends are sure to appreciate it.
