About Julieta
Julieta, a Moluccan Cockatoo, also known as a Salmon-Crested Cockatoo, came to Green Dogs Unleashed with no information about her age. Moluccans may live up to 70 years. Julieta has been vetted and appears to be a healthy, energetic adult bird. She does have areas that have been plucked, and time will tell whether the feathers on the area will grow back. Julieta has a sweet whistle, but is also capable of raucous shrieks and calls. She is not a bird for an apartment or townhouse. According to her current foster mom, Julieta is a solid heart of gold shaped like a big white bird. She took about a week to warm up, but these days she can't get enough snuggles. She enjoys drinking from the sink while mom does dishes, shoving her face into people's hands for head scratches, and threatening her reflection in every mirrored surface she can find. If you leave her alone in a room, she gets upset and does a shockingly excellent impression of a seagull. Do you need a Julieta in your life? She requires a home with large bird experience, regular affection, and a family that enjoys loud seabird cries. Essentially, she's perfect!
Moluccans are large birds with large needs, from the size of their cage (bigger is better!) to the amount of attention and exercise they need. They have a very powerful beak and are not well-suited for small children. She likes to climb around and will happily shred paper and wood blocks and toys. Julieta LOVES attention, and she'll let you know if she feels you're not paying her enough attention. That being said, with patience and positive training to trust her person she can be a devoted companion. Julieta's adoption donation fee is $400.

We are happy to consider applicants from out of state on most animals. Please read the description to see if this bird is an exception. If the applicant is approved to adopt, they MUST be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the bird and family are a good fit, they would take the bird home at that time.
For more information about our mission and for an APPLICATION for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com.
GDU does ask a minimum adoption fee of $400.00. This does not even come close to covering all expenses created by animals while in rescue. We are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances.
