- lethalglossamazing first experience for a new bird owner, good pricing and many things to choose from! staff was very helpful. and fun to see the birdies they have in thereAnna DuncanI adore Parrot U for their commitment to parrot education, safety, and wellness. They taught me all of the foundational things needed to keep my parrots (rescued from Parrot U) safe, healthy, and happy. I trust them with everything.
- Emily OshitaLove this place. Adopted 2 birds and got all their supplies right here. Highly recommend.Ellen SheppardFull disclosure: I volunteer at this mission-driven non-profit. But that gives me even greater insight into what a great place this is. The sale of bird supplies and the charge for boarding your bird finds the mission, which is.... Taking in, carrying for, and finding new homes for abandoned or relinquished birds. And they truly live that mission. Every employee and every volunteer cares deeply about these beautiful birds and is committed to finding the best life possible for them.
Parrot University sponsors Companion Parrots Re-homed, so your purchases help provide housing and care for the wonderful birds in the adoption program.
Every dollar spent at Parrot University is a vote for adoption versus the sale of birds!
