Toga

Unknown · Senior · 13 years

Description: Hi this is Toga. She is a 13 year old Blue and Gold Macaw. Toga will require an experienced macaw person to adopt her due to her nervousness. She doesn’t mind men or women and believe she will be happy to interact with both of under the same roof. When she first arrived she was very nervous and quiet however as time has passed she is starting to come out of her shell more and more each day as she grows in confidence. She has a very negative response to her cage which is something I am still working on and will need to be continued when she finds her forever home, happy to discuss the current techniques I’m using. She loves chop but prefers it warm and cooked over raw, however she does still eat both. She also prefers pellets to seed, she has been eating the zupreem natural pellets. She does like to have a fly around too, so space for her to do this would be ideal. She is a very loving girl and has started to love head scratches from me. She won’t always step up and when she does she flies straight off, I believe this is a trust issue, but again something I am working with her on at her own pace as it’s important not to rush this beautiful girl as any wrong move will set her back again. She has taken just over a week to start beginning to trust me so please don’t expect her to automatically trust, step up, have head scratches etc. She is also harness trained, however as of yet I have not gained enough trust with her to attempt to put it on. She is also fine with other birds regardless of their size. Toga is a work in progress but will bring such fun and happiness into any household. Toga will need an very experienced home that must have previous macaw experience. You will need to be a Gold Star Member to adopt any of the parrots from ASP. (Currently £75) If you can offer a home please use the form to get started

About Toga

What life with Toga looks like

Toga is a senior bird waiting at All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming in United Kingdom.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Toga, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Toga?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Toga on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Toga if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Toga already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most birds on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Toga isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming early rather than rehoming privately; they know Toga and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
