Hi, my name is Shilpa and I live in Madison, Wisconsin. My family and I will be moving to India in about a month. It isn't official yet but it is most likely to happen. This is very sudden for me too. I didn't really expect this to happen when I got my two budgies, Mickey and Chicky, but I have to move now and I feel like I am losing a part of myself. I will not be able to take them because it is a 15-18 hour plane ride there and the overall journey will be about 26 hours. With the pressure and extensive time, I do not think they will survive the journey. Plus, the airlines do not allow live birds on a USA-India flight because there isn't much of a chance that they will survive the pressure. I need someone that I trust to take care of Mickey and Chicky and I really want it to be someone I can stay in touch with. I want to see them grow up even after I am gone and I don't know many people that can care for them. I do have a few bird rescues near me that I know will find them a good home but obviously they will not let me know who Mickey and Chicky are living with. It will be very hard for me if I don't know anything about them and completely lose touch with them. However, if I do not find anyone, I will surrender them to the rescue because even though I will lose touch with them, I know for sure that the rescue will find them a home as good as mine if not better through their strict adoption requirements. I am literally crying over this post. Mickey and Chicky are my little angels and my whole world. I honestly do not know what I will do without them. So, I am looking for good people that can take care of Mickey and Chicky and love them as much as I do. Please let me know if you are interested. I would like this person to live around the Midwest area just so that I can ask a few questions before giving them Mickey and Chicky. I will be asking questions similar to those on the rescue's adoption form but mine will be more basic. I also want to mention that I would really appreciate it if I could see them through pictures, videos and maybe even on a video call once in a while. Please let me do this. Also, I want to make it clear that even though I said Midwest, I will do my best to get them to a person father away if I know for sure that they will be good owners.

All of Mickey and Chicky's Items will be given to the future owner along with Mickey and Chicky for free. Both birds are 100% healthy and fully-flighted.

Awww, I would adopt if closer. I'm certain you'll find someone since they are tame and cute. I'm sorry you have to rehome though. Hugs.

I'm so sorry this is happening for you! I know how much our feathered friends mean to us. I hope you find a wonderful home for Mickey and Chicky. I'm sorry to say I am too far away.

Travel trains? I've never heard of it before. What is it?
A travel train involves other members along the route helping get birds from Point A to B :) So instead of it just being between you and the receiver, there might be 1, 2, or more people taking on a leg of the journey.

Thank you so much for the support. Yes, this is very hard for me but I am finding a few good options so hopefully everything works out and Mickey and Chicky find a lovely home.
Hi Shilpa - I live in the same area. I'll ask around.
