Birds of Paradise Sanctuary & Rescue Introduce
Welcome to Birds of Paradise Sanctuary & Rescue, a unique and compassionate organization located in Bradenton, Florida. We are not a traditional pet store but a dedicated sanctuary and rescue, operating with a profound mission to provide a safe and nurturing home for unwanted, abused, and neglected exotic birds, particularly parrots. Founded as a small, women-owned business, our sanctuary is a labor of love, and we are committed to giving these beautiful and intelligent creatures a second chance at a happy and healthy life. We believe that every bird deserves a life filled with dignity, respect, and love, and our facility is designed to provide just that.
Our philosophy is centered on finding the right people for the right birds, rather than the other way around. This approach ensures that adoptions are successful and that the birds find a compatible and loving "constant companion" for their long lives. We have a team of dedicated individuals, led by the beautiful soul Debbie, who have been blessed to create a place of paradise for the birds in our care. The warmth and hospitality we extend to our visitors are a testament to our genuine care for both the animals and the people who love them. This sanctuary is a place where every bird is treated as a valued individual, and their unique needs are met with expertise and compassion.
Our sanctuary is located at 17020 Water Line Srv Rd, Bradenton, FL 34212. Situated in a peaceful, natural setting, our location provides a tranquil and safe environment for the birds in our care. We are accessible to the public and have a wheelchair-accessible parking lot, demonstrating our commitment to being a welcoming and inclusive place for all visitors. The serene surroundings help to create a calming atmosphere, which is beneficial for the birds' well-being and a pleasure for guests. We encourage prospective adopters and supporters to visit in person to truly experience the magic of our sanctuary and meet the remarkable birds who call it home.
Birds of Paradise Sanctuary & Rescue provides a number of key programs and services that are vital to our mission and to the wider avian community. These are not services in the traditional retail sense but are essential components of our rescue and sanctuary work.
- Constant Companions Adoption Program: We work to re-socialize and re-home eligible companion parrots. Our rigorous adoption process involves multiple visits to the sanctuary, allowing prospective owners to bond with the birds and ensuring a perfect match.
- Emergency Parrot Rescue Program: We act as an emergency resource for abandoned, neglected, and abused parrots. We are called to action in situations where parrots have lost care from a guardian due to illness, death, or neglect, providing a vital service to the community.
- Sanctuary for Unadoptable Birds: For birds that have behavioral issues, special needs, or are simply not suited for a home environment, we provide a permanent, safe haven. These birds will live out the rest of their natural lives in our care, enjoying a dignified and peaceful existence.
- Educational Resources: We provide educational resources to the avian community to promote responsible bird guardianship. We believe that by educating people, we can prevent future cases of neglect and abuse.
- Volunteer Opportunities: We rely on the kindness and dedication of volunteers to help us with everything from daily bird care to property maintenance and fundraising.
What truly makes Birds of Paradise Sanctuary & Rescue a special place is our deep-seated commitment to the welfare of every single bird. The sanctuary is a testament to the belief that these sentient beings deserve love, respect, and dignity. The heartfelt reviews from those who have visited or entrusted their flock to our care speak volumes. The sanctuary is a haven where abused and neglected birds can finally feel safe and where their individual personalities are celebrated. Our emphasis on re-socialization and finding the perfect match during the adoption process highlights our dedication to the birds' long-term happiness.
As a women-owned small business, we operate with a hands-on approach and a passionate dedication that resonates with our community. The commitment from our team, like Debbie's, is evident in the warm welcome and compassionate care given to every person and every bird who comes through our doors. The fact that the sanctuary is chosen by pet owners as the future home for their beloved flocks, and that people are willing to make financial commitments to ensure the birds' long-term care, is a powerful endorsement of our mission and the trust we have built within the community.

Choosing to support or visit Birds of Paradise Sanctuary & Rescue means choosing a place that puts the welfare of birds first. While we are a bird shop in the sense that we facilitate adoptions, our primary identity is that of an animal shelter and sanctuary. This distinction is what makes us a unique and worthy choice. Your support, whether through a donation, volunteering, or adoption, directly contributes to our mission of providing a safe and loving home for these incredible creatures. Our rigorous adoption process, while time-consuming, ensures that both the bird and the new family are set up for a lifetime of success and happiness. By choosing us, you are not just getting a pet; you are becoming a part of a community dedicated to kindness, compassion, and the well-being of every feathered friend.

β 5β 4β 3β 2β 1This Sanctuary is awesome because the owners are awesome! It is the Sanctuary i have chosen to care for my Flock if i cross over before they do, and i will be leaving a sizeable portion of my estate to them to care for the birds in perpetuity. Haven't been to see it in person yet, though i may attempt to do that next month. I have known the owners for a decade, and their philosophy is to adopt my Flock or protect them in place if there is no one who wants them. May all generations before and from the owners and the owners be blessed for their kindness to my Flock and for providing after-my-life care to my Beloveds! πππΎπ

June 08 Β· Selena FrostIf youβre looking for a bird to add to your family and are in FL please go see birds of paradise. The coordinators were extremely knowledgeable and patient with me. All the birds here are so lovely and full of personality. I finally decided on a green ring neck and I am absolutely full of love and so happy I was able to give him his forever home.
