Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Sending prayers for your faby to find his way home. I'm a bit far, but it's not impossible. I'll keep my eyes peeled and will let offline birdy friends through the PA/WV/OH/MD area know to be on the lookout for a Cake.
If you haven't already, please add Shrek to the 911 database.

Thank you I have done the 911.

Thanks for that suggestion, it's new.

Often times they go off and die, but some do make it. South Florida has all kinds of non-native birds flying around.
True story. One day I was at work, and on my lunch break. A bunch of us were sitting outside by the loading docks. A grey cockateil landed on the asphault where the trucks back up to the docks. He was pecking at the ground like he was hungry. I walked down the steps, and got right up next to the bird. I squated down very slowly, and then I stuck out my pointer finger to him. He climed right on. I then put my thumb over his feet so he couldn't fly off. Yeah, he bit me a few times, but we took him inside, and found a box to put him in. I gave him to a girl that worked there, and her kids loved it. It was clearly someone's pet that got loose, and I don't think it could care for itself.
Sad part about your bird is, if it's that young it needs to be found fast utherwise it may not do well. And then there is the winter up where you live. So, I hope you find him.

You are correct.

Wow, I hope you have luck getting the Shrek back. I know you have probably already done this but I would call all of the local animal sanctuaries as well as shelters to be on the lookout for Shrekster.
Lucille mentioning Craigslist and Shadera's 911 are very good suggestions too. You might get some responses from Craigslist, hopefully, really soon.

Thank you, I have a network of people looking, and have posted flyers around. I hope he's found soon. Baltimore has too many hawks.
From now on..any guests planning to visit will be directed to the nearest motel.

Oh no!!! I hope you find him. My friend lost her grey. A couple found him a couple of miles away about a month later, so don't give up hope!!!! I don't know your belief system, but maybe an animal communicator? I know of people that have found dogs that way.

Thanks Stephanie. I have Pet Finders out looking for him. If that fails, I will try something else.
What's an Animal Communicator? How do they operate?

Done! And, it will spread from just the couple of people I know in the area Deb. I REALLY am hoping for the best for you in getting Shrekster returned to you. One even saw your ad on CL regarding him.
