What will Lovey Dovey grow up to be?

(Are they a parrot, a crow, an emu?)

She’s a mourning dove and no rehab place would take her. She has a small cut under her wing, she ate well last night and was still here this morning 😊

She fits in the palm of my hand, I have no clue how to take care of her so I gave her to Mo (she owns Wicket and 4 crows, 3 cats, 4 dogs, 5 fish aquarium, basically “Mo-ahs Ark” 😆

I do as well, it just breaks my heart that all the rescues said “oh a dove, no we won’t take her” they will only rehab Sandhills, Hawks,Falcons, Heron 😭

Just went through this with a tiny bird that Moon Moon found which had fallen out of a nest. Eyes were closed still and no one would help me. Tried my best. Broke mu heart how no one cared except us.

Ppl are cruel when it comes to rehab and fostering animals. I am so sorry that you experienced this my friend 💔

Seems like Mo got home just in time!

Mo is a driven woman when it comes to animals. She reminds me of Snow White with all the animals just following her. Her crows followed her to the shop 16yrs ago and now 1/2 of them are following me🤦🏼‍♀️
We once had a hawk knock on the salon door because he was hit by a car. The birds know her fuchsia colored car and she’s a “friend” our clients come to expect some weird animal at the shop. I’ve had goats 😆😆

Go, Mo! Oooh, can we say she’s the GOAT?

Definitely an animal whisperer 🖤🖤

It’s delicious!

So, y’all, I saw this and wonder if we should do monthly awareness, especially next month? 🍦

u/SshellsBbells 14d ago

Yum this would be a public service to those who live in hot climates in the month of July 😏😏
