Name:	Lume
Sex:	Male
Age:	3 years
Breed:	Dove

Lume was surrendered to a local vet hospital due to labored breathing. From there, he went into Palomacy foster care while recovering. Now he's getting better! His foster parent says that he's a little wild, but a loving boy nonetheless. He's definitely a spirited dove!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Duke
Sex:	Male
Age:	9 years
Breed:	Pigeon

UPDATE 4/18/24: Duke’s wife left him for a younger bird man. He seemed at peace with it but a couple of weeks later, he’s not feeling well & has been hospitalized.

Rescued pigeon Duke is a very dignified, gentlemanly, all white racing survivor who won the heart of married pigeon lady, Augustus (who divorced to marry him, a rare occurrence amongst pigeons). They are very closely bonded and devoted to each other. They are good flock citizens who thrive in an aviary setting.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Violet w/ Pattwo
Sex:	Female
Age:	2 years
Breed:	Pigeon

Update 7/5/22: Violet is doing great. She's filling out and enjoying life in her foster aviary, especially since she won the heart of handsome Pattwo! They are available for adoption in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Name:	Lucas
Sex:	Male
Age:	1 year
Breed:	Dove

Lucas is one of five Ringneck doves who (with along with Florence, Mackenzie, Breeze & George) were rescued alive after being "let go" when their person died. Lucas was confident in the temporary cage short-term shared with George but has been overwhelmed joining the foster flock (with buddy George) of 7 other doves. Lucas has a mauve-lilacish head and neck attached to a fawn colored body. Lucas is currently being flirted at by everybirdy in the flock pretty much.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Louise Cheeks
Sex:	Male
Age:	4 years
Breed:	Dove

Update 10/03/22: Louise Cheeks has been returned to Palomacy for no fault of her own. This sweetheart is once again available for adoption in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Update 11/4/2021: Miss Lou is adopted and HOME!

Pretty ringneck dove Louise Cheeks (Miss Lou!) was brought stray and injured to the Lindsay Wildlife Museum in Walnut Creek. Because she's a domestic dove, they transferred her to Palomacy's care. Miss Lou is a bright young hen (we're pretty sure!) who's all healed up and ready for her forever home!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Lemon w/ Clever
Sex:	Female
Age:	2 years

The sweetest Lemon you'll ever meet! Lemon is Clever's stoic, determined, curious, and gentle wife.

Name:	Stella
Sex:	Female
Age:	9 years
Breed:	Dove

Sweet Stella came to Palomacy in rough shape. She had significant feather loss and was underweight with a hooked beak that badly needed a trim. She was incredibly spirited and curious despite not feeling her best. We're so happy to say that Stella is really turning around in foster care. With good care, good light, and new dove friends, she's now living her best life. She even loves to take baths and have her feathers gently blown dry after. She is so very loveable and loved!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Jeannie w/Vernon
Sex:	Female
Age:	2 years
Breed:	Pigeon

8/8/23 Jeannie & her little husbird Vernon are doing OK in a private space in my foster aviary (so Jeannie doesn't get bullied) but they would really like a life of luxury. Jeannie spends most of her time sitting & uses her wings to scoot where she wants to go. Vernon can walk & fly but likes to stay near his Jeannie.

1/11/23 Update: SPECIAL NEEDS Jeannie is a beautiful very lucky to be alive one-legged pigeon racing survivor. She survived having her right leg ripped off (probably by a raccoon through an unsafe barrier) & healed up on her own without ever getting vet care. (She was healed up by the time we got her.) She's a lovely pigeon married to very tiny, very cute Vernon & they are a sweet couple. They'd do best as indoor pets or in an aviary with another very peaceful couple. Jeannie's in great health now but having only one leg reduces her mobility & will likely get more complicated with time.

Jean is a bird of mystery with only one leg & no back story except that s/he was rescued in Vallejo & is now safely fostered. More info to follow as it becomes available!Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Speckle w/Uma
Sex:	Female
Age:	3 years
Breed:	Pigeon

Let's talk about adorable, adoptable pair Speckle (left) and Uma (right). These two are very much in love and make it clear with lots of sweet gestures to each other. Uma spends much of his time laying as flat as possible, humming for Speckle, who is happy to give him sweet nibbles and to stand or sit on top of him to give him snuggles. These two are fantastic flyers, and Speckle is a particularly talented hover-er. They would make a wonderful addition to a safe, predator-proof aviary where they can stretch their wings. Uma uses his flying skills to build SUPERB nests efficiently, using as much building material as possible. We can't provide new nesting material fast enough! Speck has an adorable tiny little face and dainty little eyes and beak. Her voice is also cute and tiny. Uma is very handsome in every way and has lovely, thick, smoky plumage and gentle eyes.

Name:	Monk w/ Mouse
Sex:	Unknown
Age:	11 months
Breed:	Pigeon

Don't let Monk's surprised expression fool you into thinking he's always shocked! That's just the way he looks now after he was found with a severe head wound as a youngster. To be able to close the wound up, Monk's doctor had to give him this eyelift, but we think it makes him irresistibly adorable! It almost gives him a puppy-eye look, and that sure is a face we'd have a hard time saying no to. With a look like that, we're sure Monk won't have to puppy-eye his way into a forever home for long. Available in the San Francisco Bay Area.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Hobbes w/ Calvin
Sex:	Female
Age:	3 years
Breed:	Pigeon

Hobbes is a very well dressed pigeon racing survivor. I think she's wearing a sweater vest. She & her mate Calvin are inseparable. They do everything together & are so, so bonded that I don't like even the brief moments during required routine handling when they are apart. And they don't like it either. They are each other's whole world & it is adorable. Find someone who loves you like these two love each other.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Lily w/ Kazoo
Sex:	Female
Age:	8 years

Name:	Mason
Sex:	Unknown
Age:	8 months
Breed:	Pigeon

A young pigeon, just a fledgling, was overwhelmingly infected with trichomoniasis and pigeon pox was struggling and failing to eat with his flock in the backyard of very kind cat rescuers when they noticed that the trich plaques covering his whole face made it impossible for him to eat. They reached out to Palomacy's online Help Group for advice. They were able to catch the starving little bird, named him Mason and with Palomacy phone and text coaching, did an amazing job caring for him despite being totally new to birds and his case being so extreme (including the loss of his lower beak). They and Palomacy volunteers coordinated to handle hundreds of miles of transportation to get him to Medical Center for Birds where he was put on additional meds and pain relief. He was then transferred into supportive care where he needs to be hand fed. Mason is doing well, gaining weight and working hard to relearn self-feeding without his lower mandible. He is still being treated for the remaining lumps and bumps on his face (which are far fewer than when he was rescued). Check back to watch his progress.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/

Name:	Ferris w/ Davy
Sex:	Female
Age:	2 years
Breed:	Pigeon

Update 05/31/23: Sweet Ferris has married fellow foster pigeon, Davy!

This one-winged beauty is Ferris! She is a feral pigeon who suffered a traumatic injury that resulted in her wing being ripped off. She took shelter in front of a police station for three days until a very kind officer noticed her and brought her to Palomacy. Once in our care, Ferris underwent surgery to clean her injuries and stabilize her. Now she's recovering and will go into foster care soon.

Name:	Paloma
Sex:	Male
Age:	3 years
Breed:	Pigeon

Sweet King pigeon, Paloma, had somehow survived living on the streets in Oakland for 2 or 3 months. She frequented a residential building where the residents often fed her and watched over her until Palomacy was contacted about her wellbeing. A dedicated volunteer tried to capture her one day, but Paloma gave her the slip! The next day, the volunteer spotted Paloma on the window ledge on the 5th floor. Luckily it was an empty unit, and the building manager allowed our hero volunteer to enter and capture Paloma! Sadly, her time living in the wild left her with an injury to her eye, but it certainly hasn't stopped her from enjoying her new pampered life in foster care!

Update 2/9/2021: 8Ball has married the widower Batman. Congratulations to the happy couple!

Magic 8Ball is the eighth of ten domestic pigeons abandoned and set "free" by their previous owner that Palomacy has caught and brought to safety.

Breed:	Pigeon

Marigold is a big, handsome King pigeon man who was accidentally hatched when his foster volunteer missed one of Mango & Zee's real eggs. He recently lost his King pigeon husband named Rosie. Marigold may take another mate but whatever happens, we think he would like to live out his life in a nice, quiet setting.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/
