About this Bird
Hatch Date: 2011 Misty is a beautiful and playful 12-year-old Timneh African Grey who loves being in the company of people. She is confirmed Female and grew up as an only-bird with her original family. While she tolerates other birds in her foster home, she would probably prefer to be the only bird and center of attention in her next home. Misty is affectionate in that she enjoys company, mimics laughter from anywhere in the home, and generally seems most content with activity around her instead of long quiet days. However, Misty does not appreciate being handled beyond a brief step up and a walk around to the next room. She will not tolerate head scritches or other "petting." When she is not in the mood to step up or be engaged, she will bite. She is well-bonded with two people in her foster home and will not allow handling from others. Misty likes to make lots of noises, like R2D2 and kissing sounds, and she picks up names quickly, like "Andrew, get up!". Her most used word is "What?" and her most frequent phrases are "Misty, step up!" and "How are you?" She plays with wooden and rope toys and randomly engages with foraging or puzzle toys. When she's excited, she hangs upside down and weaves her head in a figure 8. She's a very talented gymnast! Misty enjoys out-of-enclosure time, mostly to perch, chat, eat, preen, be around people, tear up paper and push ball toys around. While she can fly, she is more likely to climb down her cage and walk across the floor to the other room... waddle, waddle! She doesn't like to be spritzed or engage with running water. She will occassionally dunk her head in her bowl of water for a bath. She is on a ZuPreem Pellet diet, and prefers the Red and Orange ones. Carrots, cashews and banana chips are her favorite treats. Misty is being fostered in Maplewood, NJ and will only be adopted to a forever home within driving distance. We will NOT ship our birds. For the Love of Birds is a network of dedicated foster homes throughout NJ and Eastern PA. We do not have a central location. As our adoptable birds are living in volunteers’ homes, or in their family's homes, we only allow approved applicants to meet our birds. If interested in meeting Misty, please review our adoption policies, and complete an adoption application on our website ftlob.rescuegroups.org.

Adopt Misty and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Misty's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Misty's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Misty, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Misty's Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Misty was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Misty’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Misty’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Misty’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
