fantastic news~mylo and jj's future


After much discussion and deliberation within UKPR to find these guys their perfect home or a third party to take them in to secure their future -TOGETHER, we have some good news!!!



Under the advice and expertise of greg glendell we have been working towards finding somewhere milo and jj can go to be reunited, we beleive we have now found that place, thanks greg :)

Greg has reccomended wayne watkins who has the facilities and expertise to give these two guys not only a third party place to be re united but a permanent home, without the expertise and advice of greg we feel this outcome would not have been possible and we are very pleased that at last the milo and jj situation can be resolved we only wish this could have been the case much sooner.

As you are aware we have been working hard to make sure that these two are not pushed from pillar to post but can be reunited and together again- their happiness and welfare has always been our top priority, it has not been an easy task we had to find someone who had the knowledge , expertise and facilities and with whom milo and jj's future could be secured , originally the plan was caron would emergency care with a view to fostering them permanently and that altho there was some concerns we felt their welfare and health would not be affected,however recent events only proved some of our concerns, but as luck would have things wayne watkins can offer them everything they are in need of and more.

Subject to a check of waynes facilities(which im sure will pass with flying colours) we are confident that they have found what they need and at last they can be reunited and enjoy the rest of their years in harmony, caron has been contacted and has agreed to send milo with jj to waynes, so all in all a good result all round.

milo and jj you will both be soon reunited and living in happiness and that is our ultimate goal.


we would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have beleived that UKPR could come to a decision and resolve this issue and now we can get back to what we are here for .


good luck to milo and jj for their future.xxx

clarification

On the list it also states about a pair of love birds being re-homed, please correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Dawnie withdraw her request of re-homing these two birds immediately after witnessing the Mylo and JJ debacle? Maybe the situation was rectified so it would be good if someone could clarify this

The lovebirds that were rehomed did NOT belong to dawnie- they were seperate rehomes altogether from some time ago(march 2008) so carons claim there was totally untrue and unsupported, they were rescued by adele from freecycle
from adele on their thread:- i had seen an ad yesterday and no its wasnt the usual sites(preloved ect)it was on my local freecylcle group,for those who dont know its a local group that recycle items,for free to save them going to the tip.washers , cookers,sofas ect..the poor birds were only rehomed on sat but the new owner didnt like them :rant: luckly he had loads of offers but picked me to rehome them
dawnie did withdraw her request of rehoming once UKPR's name was brought into disrepute from caron & co, emails were sent to members asking them to come to carons blog(including one staff member) from john doe(why use a false identity?
emails rewceived from john doe sent to members past and present:-
Always wanted to say something but too scared to ask or be banned, well now here is your chance.

Apologies in advance to anyone that did not wish to receive this email, you will not be contacted again.

Kindest regards

From my point of view a rather dishonest and devious way of doing things to retreive peoples personal emails and then mass email like this(spamming)
in reply to the birds that pauline has from UKPR i know at least of the budgie who sadly died after he was rehomed with pauline , so it is possible that she does only have 2 UKPR birds with her now that im sure are well looked after and cared for, the list was of all birds who have been SUCCESSFULLY REHOMED not birds who currently reside in their new homes now.

in reply to the homecheck of the birds who were 'seized' from a UKPR mod, there was absolutely no cause for concern to begin with , birds were happy and well cared for , there were visits from staff who saw no prolems-the problems only arose when the ACO started working a very busy job and time was more consumed, after several attemtpts to contact no replies came back or replies saying they would call and didnt, it was only then when a bird was to be rehomed that was at her premises and contact couldnt be made that vikky turned up to get the bird who somebody was looking forward to welcoming them into their home that they saw how bad things had really got and decided all birds needed to be returned to UKPR, i will also add there was many offers of helping not only UKPR birds but also her own if she was finding it difficult on a temporary basis from others on UKPR- does that sound like malice??

donations go towards helping the next birds in need, some have no cages, or cages that are not adequate for them to live in without causing them mental health issues - so the money has to come from somewhere in these cases , some cages are donated but depending on the particuilar birds needs they may not be good enough, vets bills are not cheap and i dont mean taking it to the rspca or pdsa and giving a £10 donation towards your pets healthcare , they are taken to qualified avian vets if needed, travel and fuel is another huge amount that is covered with donations , we cover the UK from scotland to cornwall, and sometimes an ACO does collect and pay from their own pocket but what happens when u do a 600 mile trip to sort not 1 but a few birds (ie- drop one off , pick one up and deliver to suitable emergency carer/s), would you be able to say no sorry cant do it as i cant afford the fuel??? no you try your hardest to help especially when their story is so heartbreaking, the donations are greatly appreciated as they cover this side of UKPR work.

this is not detailed clarification but i hope it will help see our point of view.
