Adoption Fees

Athena was bought for a 12-year-old girl.  By the time 16 years happened for the girl, she was heavily involved in school.  The reality of having a big, noisy companion parrot became a concern then an issue for the entire family.  Athena reached sexual maturity to find she was a male showing signs of having a mate bond with his “owner”.  Atticus needs someone who knows about large birds, understands that he is not a status symbol, and needs lots of training.  If you would like to meet Atticus, please fill out our adoption application.
